They gathered in the National Assembly hours after Yoon issued a public apology over the move, saying he won’t shirk legal or political responsibility for the declaration and promising not to make another attempt to impose martial law. In a brief televised address , Yoon said he would leave it to his party to chart a course through the country’s political turmoil, “including matters related to my term in office.” “The declaration of this martial law was made out of my desperation. But in the course of its implementation, it caused anxiety and inconveniences to the public. I feel very sorry over that and truly apologize to the people who must have been shocked a lot,” Yoon said. A screen shows footage

Coaches always stress the importance of special teams, and Oxnard Pacifica’s Mike Moon had a huge grin after three blocked punts played a vital role in his team’s 37-20 victory over Narbonne on Friday night in the CIF Southern California Regional Division 2-AA bowl game in Oxnard. The Tritons (11-4) advance to the state bowl game next Friday at 4 p.m. against Sacramento Grant at Saddleback College. “Our special teams early in the year, especially against Inglewood, was atrocious and there’s no reason for it because we practice it so much,” Moon said. “We watched film of Narbonne and thought we could take advantage of that.” Anthony Macias knifed through the line to block a punt at the goal line, and Max Magana recovered the ball in the end zone to give Pacifica a 14-6 lead late in the first quarter. On its next possession, Narbonne was forced to punt from its own 25-yard line and this time Deon Hasley got the block. Magana pounced on the loose ball at the 22 and, four plays later, Isaac Magana kicked a 32-yard field goal to put

CHULA VISTA —  Wearing bright gold gloves so his mother can spot him on the field, record-setting receiver Shane Rosenthal of Newbury Park rarely misses passes in his direction. With 62 touchdowns, 324 receptions and more than 5,100 yards in his career, Rosenthal only wishes he could have gotten back a potential interception while playing defense Friday night in a crushing 34-27 defeat to San Diego Lincoln in the Division 1-AA bowl game. Lincoln quarterback Akili Smith Jr., facing fourth and goal from the 15-yard line with his team down 27-21, threw the pass into the middle of the field. Rosenthal got his hands on the ball in the end zone, but it was deflected into the hands of Joshua Newbern for the tying touchdown with 2:21 left. Newbury Park’s Ryder Sheehan blocked the extra-point attempt to keep the score tied. Then, with 21.2 seconds left, Smith completed a 14-yard pass to Courtney Miller-Thompson for the go-ahead touchdown, giving Lincoln its first lead of a wild game. The win sends Lincoln (11-2) into next Friday’s 1-AA final against Pittsburg, a 28-27 winner over Folsom. Rosenthal did

The Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) announced Friday it indefinitely suspended the license of a bar in Riverside County after an investigation revealed employees were selling narcotics to customers. ABC says the investigation was launched in August 2023 for reports of illegal conduct at Shark Bar in Moreno Valley. “During the investigation, undercover agents purchased narcotics from employees and found other violations, which led to ABC filing the accusation,” wrote the department in a release. The six-count accusation, according to ABC, includes charges for the sales of cocaine by an employee, the sale of cannabis by an employee, allowing patrons to possess cannabis inside the premises, allowing the negotiations for sale of controlled substances, and excessive calls for service received by the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office.
