Walt Gray, the longtime Channel 3 (KCRA) television newsman whose jump last fall to a Sacramento morning radio show was cut short by a round of layoffs at the radio station in July, is returning to TV news at Sacramento's Channel 10 (KXTV).

According to sacbee.com, Gray will anchor News10's Saturday and Sunday 6 a.m. and 8 a.m. newscasts and handle multiple journalistic chores that include breaking news, investigative pieces and features.

He will take over his new duties on Sept. 6.
