Homeless Ohio man with velvety voice back with mom

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A homeless Ohio man whose silky announcing voice has catapulted him to national fame has reunited in New York with his mother, who says "my prodigal son has finally come home."

Video posted by The Columbus Dispatch shows Ted Williams walking quickly toward his 90-year-old mother. He says, "Hi, Mommy. Hi, Mommy," when he sees her in a hotel Thursday for the first time in about 20 years. Brooklyn resident Julia Williams embraces her son, who's wearing a camouflage jacket.

The 53-year-old Ted Williams was left homeless after his life was ruined by drugs and alcohol. But Williams has been in demand since the Dispatch posted video of him on the side of a road earlier this week.

Williams appeared on NBC's "Today" show Thursday morning and has been offered jobs by the NBA's Cleveland Cavaliers and others.
