The Channel 3 News team is growing again as Multimedia Journalist/Reporter Andrew Horansky joins WKYC-TV this April, announced News Director Brennan Donnellan.

Horansky returns to his hometown from our Gannett sister station, KHOU-TV/Houston, where he has worked for the past three years in the same capacity.

Prior to that, he was at KVUE-TV/Austin and worked as a Chicago-based correspondent at the country's first high definition news network, HD News according to his biography on the KHOU-TV website.

From the devastating tsunami in Sri Lanka to a massive earthquake in Pakistan, he traveled the globe covering some of the biggest stories of the decade. He reported from the war in Iraq, traveled to New Orleans for Hurricane Katrina, to Britain for the subway bombings, and to Haiti for deadly mudslides.

Andrew grew up in Westlake. "I’m THRILLED to be coming home," Horansky tells us. "My wife will be practicing pediatrics and we’ll be able to raise our 7-month old daughter, Juliet, closer to family now. We have relatives and friends all over the city, including parents and grandparents."

Horansky's first day at the WKYC Digital Broadcast Center will be April 4th.
