Crews begin to surround ‘tagged towers’ with fencing…

Los Angeles city officials have had enough of the apparent free-for-all surrounding the abandoned downtown development dubbed the "tagged towers," as the crews began to clean up the site Friday in order to build a fence around the perimeter.

The clean-up was approved by the city council on Tuesday when a Saturday deadline was imposed on the site's developer, China Oceanwide, to either put a fence around the development or clean up the graffiti littering the skyscrapers' sides. The city took matters into its own hands Friday since the bankrupt developer didn't appear to be making any progress.

Donald Trump ordered to pay $355 million in fraud…

A New York judge on Friday ordered former President Trump to pay nearly $355 million in penalties in a civil fraud case that has dealt a stark blow to his family’s business empire. Judge Arthur Engoron’s 92-page decision came just weeks after closing arguments in the case capped a months-long trial during which Trump frequently lambasted the judge and the prosecutor who brought the case.

New York Attorney General Letitia James (D) sued Trump in 2022, alleging he falsely altered his net worth on key financial statements to receive tax and insurance benefits. The documents, which detailed the value of the Trump Organization’s various assets, were sent to banks and insurers to secure loans and deals, which the state purports is evidence of fraud.

Flooding possible as another storm takes aim at Southern…

Yet another storm system is expected to bring several inches of rain to Southern California beginning on Sunday evening, meteorologists say.

While most of the weekend will be dry and cooler than average, the term all Californians have come to learn over the last several years looks to make another appearance - in the form of an "atmospheric river." The last atmospheric river storm struck Southern California early last week, with torrential rain, flooding and mudslides.

A chaotic and gruesome scene unfolded in Compton Friday morning after a man who was breeding pit bulls was mauled to death in his own backyard. According to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, officials responded to the home on Thorson Avenue, just south of Rosecrans Avenue, around 7 a.m. after a concerned friend visited the property and discovered the man’s body.
