WJZ Investigator Mike Hellgren came to WJZ in the spring of 2004 from KARK-TV, an NBC affiliate station in Little Rock, Arkansas, where he worked as a general assignment reporter and fill-in anchor. Solid reporting credentials and a reputation for breaking important news stories characterized Mike's work both there and at KTAL-TV, another NBC station in Shreveport, La. where he also was a general assignment reporter and fill-in anchor.
He also worked as a reporter/producer/photographer for KLAX-TV, an ABC station in Alexandria, Louisiana, and started his career in broadcast journalism with a cable news program called First Edition News in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
Mike holds a B.S. degree in journalism from Northwestern University's Medill School of Journalism and grew up partly in both Chicago and Louisiana.

The Dali safely docked Tuesday morning in Norfolk after a 20-hour journey to Virginia with a replacement crew of 22 and a salvage expert onboard.
Ten members of Dali's crew have been cleared to leave the United States, while the ship, which crashed into the Key Bridge three months ago, will be relocated to Norfolk, Virginia on Monday.
Eight of the Dali's crew members will be allowed to depart the ship and return to their home countries following a last-minute deal approved by a federal judge, while the ship is expected to leave Baltimore Friday evening.
The 21-member crew from India and Sri Lanka have remained onboard the Dali since the Key Bridge collapse — more than 12 weeks and counting.
