By Kaia Hubbard April 7, 2024 / 2:20 PM EDT / CBS News IDF troops will have “rest and refit,” Kirby says Israel has told White House that IDF troops will have “rest and refit,” NSC’s John Kirby says 08:05 Washington — John Kirby, the White House National Security Council coordinator for strategic communications, said Sunday that Israel has indicated to the Biden administration that the surprise move to pull troops out of southern Gaza is largely for “rest and refit.” Israel’s military said Sunday it now has just one division in the Gaza Strip, after the other left in the last day. A spokesperson called the move an evolution of the war, rather than a partial withdrawal. But the thinking behind the move hasn’t been made entirely clear.  Transcript: John Kirby, National Security Council spokesperson, on “Face the Nation,” April 7, 2024 “The indications that we’ve been getting from them this morning is this is really largely rest and refit for troops that have been on the ground consecutively now for four months and they need a chance to come, to come out now,”

Paramedics help an individual into a waiting ambulance in the 6600 block of Dillman Street in Lakewood on Sunday. (OnScene.TV) April 7, 2024 11:12 AM PT One man is dead and three other people have been hospitalized following a suspected fentanyl overdose in Lakewood, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. Around 1 a.m. Sunday, first responders were dispatched to a home in the 6600 block of Dillman Street after receiving a call that four people had stopped breathing because of a possible overdose of fentanyl, a potent synthetic opioid that can cause respiratory failure, authorities said. One man was pronounced dead at the scene, according to the Sheriff’s Department. Three other adults were rushed to the hospital, and their conditions remain unclear. Authorities will need to await lab testing to confirm whether the overdoses were the result of fentanyl, which has been responsible for a mounting death toll locally and across the country. In 2022, fentanyl became the most common cause of accidental drug overdose deaths in Los Angeles County, surpassing methamphetamine, according to the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health.

Con todas sus complejidades, todos sus giros y vueltas, el escándalo de las apuestas en el que se ha visto envuelta la estrella de los Dodgers Shohei Ohtani plantea una pregunta sencilla. En esta era de DraftKings y FanDuel, cuando tantas personas en todo el país pueden hacer apuestas con unos pocos toques en el teléfono, ¿por qué alguien utilizaría un corredor de apuestas ilegal? Dos hombres del sur de California que dijeron al Times que apostaban regularmente con la presunta red de corredores de apuestas vinculada a Ohtani y a su antiguo intérprete ofrecen una respuesta. Como muchos jugadores, no veían otra alternativa en California, uno de los pocos estados que prohíben las apuestas deportivas. Hablando bajo condición de anonimato debido a las leyes estatales, contradicen el estereotipo del corredor de apuestas de pie, garabateando números en una libreta de notas y guardando un fajo de billetes en el bolsillo. El funcionamiento que describen era eficiente y profesional. Los clientes recibían una contraseña para acceder a un sitio web extraterritorial donde podían consultar las cuotas e introducir apuestas, afirman. Un apostante dijo que recibía

A chase spanning two Southern California counties and a crash into an embankment ended with a foot pursuit on Sunday morning, according to authorities. The chase began just after 1 a.m. when sheriff’s deputies from East Los Angeles pursued two males inside of a gray Hyundai. According to the California Highway Patrol, the pursuit lasted about two hours as the Hyundai drove through numerous L.A. County cities at a “high rate of speed.” A pursuit began in L.A. County and ended with a foot chase in Irvine on Sunday, April 7, 2024. (County News) Eventually the pursuit came to an end in Orange County, when the Hyundai careened and crashed down an embankment in the area of Alton Parkway and the 241 Freeway in Irvine. Both men took off on foot after the crash and ran toward a business located near an apartment complex. There, authorities caught and detained the two men around 3 a.m. The CHP didn’t say why the pursuit began, or what crimes the men were arrested on suspicion of. It’s unclear whether the Hyundai was stolen.

By Kaia Hubbard, Fin Gómez, Jacob Rosen, Olivia Rinaldi April 7, 2024 / 1:42 PM EDT / CBS News Recap of Biden and Trump’s NYC visits Biden holds NYC fundraiser, Trump attends slain NYPD officer’s wake and more political stories 07:16 Washington — Former President Donald Trump’s campaign said it raised $50.5 million at a Saturday event in Florida, marking a massive haul as his campaign looks to catch up to the Biden campaign’s recent fundraising efforts and significant cash advantage. The record-breaking sum that the campaign reported raising at a Palm Beach, Florida fundraising dinner on Saturday far surpasses the amount brought in by a star-studded fundraiser for the Biden campaign last month, as the GOP touted the event as an indicator of party’s unity behind the former president.  In a joint statement, RNC Chairman Michael Whatley and co-chair Lara Trump said the “success” of Saturday’s event is “proving what we already know: Americans are fed up with Biden’s record of failure, from the open southern border and sky-high inflation to the migrant crime crisis that has made everyone less safe.” The funds raised
