Police in Upland arrested a woman who allegedly stabbed her partner during a domestic dispute Wednesday morning. According to the Upland Police Department, officers were dispatched around 1 a.m. to a home near the intersection of Alpine Street and Palm Avenue. Neighbors had reported an intoxicated woman armed with a kitchen knife was yelling and had just stabbed a man in an apartment complex. Police arrived on scene and found the woman in front of the building. When she spotted officers, she took off on foot while “barefoot and in a dress,” police said. Body cam footage shared by the Police Department shows the woman running between apartment buildings and into an alley before ultimately surrendering to armed officers. The knife was located nearby.

Family members are disturbed after they say mice have been repeatedly spotted inside a San Fernando Valley nursing home. Cell phone video captured a mouse running inside a bedroom and darting behind furniture at the Sherman Village Healthcare Center in Valley Village. On Sunday night, family members claimed they spotted at least four mice inside the facility. Leticia Sahagun said she’s horrified that her mother and other elderly patients are living under such conditions. She said she managed to trap at least four mice inside a bathroom that night. She also found mouse droppings behind furniture. “It was dinner time and I think the smell of the food just ignited mice coming out of the cupboards and behind furniture, in and out of the bathroom,” Sahagun said. “I’m just concerned about my mother and her roommate. They are fall risks so their beds are down on the floor. Just the thought of having mice run on them throughout the night when I’m not there, it just makes me so sad and it breaks my heart.” Elaine Barringer, the daughter of another patient, was also there

Police in Santa Ana are asking for the public’s help in identifying and locating three suspects involved in an armed robbery at a local gas station late last week, officials announced.   It’s unclear exactly which convenience store and gas station the robbery occurred, but in a post to social media, officials at the Santa Ana Police Department said the incident happened on Nov. 14.   In surveillance footage, two of the three suspects can be seen browsing the aisles of a convenience store before purchasing some items and leaving.   That’s when police say suspect number one approached a man sitting in his vehicle next to his girlfriend while fueling up his car and brandished a gun, pointed it at the victims and demanded their property.   Two of three suspects wanted in an armed robbery at a gas station in Santa Ana on Nov. 14, 2024.

NUEVA YORK . — Con el Día de Acción de Gracias a menos de dos semanas, Walmart, Target, Aldi y otros supermercados están compitiendo por un lugar en las mesas festivas con ofertas de cenas de pavo y otras promociones para tentar a los estadounidenses que aún no se recuperan de la reciente inflación en los precios de los alimentos.

Eso calcula a menos de 7 dólares por persona.

When Comcast swallowed NBC and Universal Studios 14 years ago, the sibling cable channels USA Network, Bravo and CNBC were considered diamonds in the rough. USA Network had gained traction with its “Blue Skies” programming strategy: sunny and upbeat TV programs infused with a buoyant energy and natural light. The cable channels were NBCUniversal’s equivalent of blue skies, routinely delivering three-quarters of the company’s profit. In 2012, cable networks threw off a robust $3.3 billion in cash flow. Times have changed. Comcast this week announced its plans to jettison all but one cable channel into a separate, stand-alone publicly traded company that will take shape over the next year. “This is a reminder that the cable television network business is yesterday’s news,” analyst Craig Moffett said Wednesday in an interview. “If it feels like Comcast is shedding itself of an albatross — that’s because it is.” For now, Comcast’s cable channels remain a viable business by generating $7 billion in annual revenue. But you have only to look at the properties the Philadelphia cable giant is keeping to see how the top brass has picked

A woman has reached a tentative settlement in her lawsuit filed against the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District in which she alleged she was twice sexually assaulted by her rock poetry teacher while she was a 16-year-old student at Santa Monica High School in 1978. Identified only as Jane Doe D.S. and now in her 60s, Doe maintained that teacher Steven Garwood was never trained in having appropriate conduct with students. On Monday, Doe’s attorney filed court papers with Santa Monica Superior Court Judge Elaine W. Mandel notifying her of a “conditional” settlement in the case along with the expectation a request for dismissal will be filed by Jan. 17. No terms were divulged. In their previous court papers, district lawyers argued that the plaintiff provided no evidence, including through her own testimony, that the alleged abuse she suffered resulted from the failure of any district staff member to supervise her or Garwood. The defense attorneys also denied the district was negligent in hiring the teacher. “In plaintiff’s deposition, she testified in plain terms that the abuse, which took place on two occasions off campus

Two men — including a grandson of the victim — are scheduled to be arraigned next month on murder and burglary charges for allegedly killing a 75-year-old woman at her South Pasadena home. Josh Edward Atkins, 44, and Bikramjot Singh Padda, 28, are each charged with murder and first-degree burglary with a person present stemming from the June 4 killing of Susan Miller inside her home in the 800 block of Brent Avenue, according to the District Attorney’s Office. Prosecutors said Padda is Miller’s grandson. Sheriff’s officials said deputies responded to Miller’s home around 8:45 p.m. that night, and the victim was found dead from stab wounds to the upper body. Reports from the scene at the time suggested Miller’s grandchildren found her body while checking on her welfare. Prosecutors alleged that Atkins and Padda burglarized the home at about 3:30 a.m. that morning and fatally stabbed Miller. The criminal complaint alleges that Atkins personally used a knife in the commission of the crime. The complaint also alleges that another person, other than the alleged accomplice, was present during the burglary. According to jail records

By Jordan Freiman Updated on: November 20, 2024 / 8:39 PM EST / CBS News Bryan Kohberger, the man accused of killing four University of Idaho students in 2022 , can face the death penalty, a judge has ruled. Kohberger’s defense team had sought to remove the death penalty as a possible punishment should he be convicted, but Ada County Judge Steven Hippler denied their motions in his ruling dated Tuesday. The prosecution has said it intends to seek the death penalty if Kohberger is convicted. Kohberger’s attorneys’ arguments included claims that forcing inmates to wait for years on death row and the methods available for prisoners to be executed in Idaho both constitute cruel and unusual punishment. They also argued Idaho’s death penalty laws violate an international treaty banning the torture of prisoners. Kohberger  is accused of the Nov. 13, 2022, stabbing deaths of Ethan Chapin, Xana Kernodle, Madison Mogen and Kaylee Goncalves. All four were students at the University of Idaho and were killed in a home off campus. Kohberger was arrested on Dec. 30, 2022, in Pennsylvania and was extradited back to

Barring a cataclysmic event or major economic turmoil, the median home price in Los Angeles County will likely cross the $1,000,000 mark in 2025. Data released this week by the California Association of Realtors shows a median, detached single-family home in L.A. County costs $956,210, seven percent more than a year ago. Statewide, the median home price is $888,740, around six percent more than a year ago. This comes despite mortgage rates continuing to hover around generational highs, which has kept many would-be buyers on the sidelines. However, economists at the Realtor’s Association, which represents real estate professionals who rely on sales, say prices in California generally only go in one direction: up. California home sales were expected to soar in 2024. Here’s what really happened “The best time to buy was a long time ago. The second-best time to buy is still today,” insists CAR’s chief economist Jordan Levine. Indeed, the increase in home values in California, especially Southern California, has been significant over the past decade. In October 2014, an average home in L.A. County cost $477,600, meaning home values have essentially doubled.

For years, an Orange County Sheriff’s Department employee was living large, spending lavishly on Santa Ana dinners, West Hollywood bars and a nightclub in Las Vegas. But it wasn’t the department’s payroll footing the bill — it was her unsuspecting grandmother, authorities said. Roxana C. Laub, 33, of Santa Ana, recently pleaded guilty to two felony charges for forging checks and fraudulently using credit cards in her grandmother’s name, according to a U.S. Department of Justice news release. She faces up to 30 years in federal prison for the bank fraud count and up to 15 years in federal prison for the identity theft count, according to the DOJ. Her sentencing hearing is scheduled for April 9, 2025. Laub, whose employment with the department has included a stint as a uniformed correctional officer at the Orange County jail, is accused of stealing her grandmother’s identity and savings for more than five years, prosecutors said. From 2015 to 2017, she forged her grandmother’s signature on more than 20 checks in order to fraudulently deposit some $45,000 from her grandmother’s bank account into her own, prosecutors said.

Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi flippin’ love Montecito. They do. They love it so much they have reportedly owned and/or flipped at least 21 properties there. Nevertheless, they are ditching Santa Barbara County. The ex-Montecitans are now expats after the reelection of a certain ex-president, the Wrap reports. DeGeneres and De Rossi are now at home in the U.K. The pair are voracious home buyers. They have bought and sold a number of properties around L.A., yet the Santa Barbara area was a particular favorite. Site Line, which keeps an eye on upscale real estate in those parts, said in February that DeGeneres and De Rossi had spent at least $350 million since 2006 on Santa Barbara-area manses. They couldn’t be budged from Montecito even by extreme flooding. DeGeneres posted video of the surging waters behind her home in January 2023, which arrived on the five-year anniversary of deadly mudslides in the area. But apparently President-elect Donald Trump retaking the White House reins is a different level of disaster for the 66-year-old comedian and her actor wife, 51. Hence the packing up and moving
