UPDATED: Langford arrested on federal charges

UPDATE; 12.1.2008: Check out this full report from Birmingham View’s Vickii Howell.

The first work day after the Thanksgiving holiday began with Birmingham Mayor Larry Langford being arrested on federal charges early this morning. The 101-count indictment was unsealed today during a news conference held by U.S. Attorney Alice Martin. We do know that he is being held at the Jefferson County Courthouse. There is a press conference scheduled to take place at 10 a.m. We’re assuming that NBC 13 and myFoxAL.com will cover the conference live.

We’re going to take our time on this one, so we’ll also invite you to follow this breaking news story across the local media spectrum:

NBC 13, Fox 6, CBS 42, ABC 33/40, Birmingham Weekly, The Birmingham News.
