Southern California residents dealt mostly with an array of inconveniences on Sunday — high water in spots, road closures and even the suspension of some DoorDash deliveries — as they braced for Tropical Storm Hilary to enter its most intense chapter that night.“It’s just like a normal storm. It’s a little bit rainy and windy,” Lynette Paoli, a resident of the San Bernardino Mountains community of Forest Falls, said late Sunday afternoon as she looked out her windows. “I hope it’s nothing like they are saying it’s going to be. I’m praying it bypasses us.”The inland mountains and deserts, however, were expected to receive the storm’s most punishing rain and strong winds on Sunday night and into Monday morning, and flash-flood warnings and evacuation orders were in effect.Other Southern California counties were also expected to receive heavier rainfall than during the daylight hours, the National Weather Service said.The rain is likely to move out around noon on Monday.Just how much d...California business owner killed after argument over a Pride flag hanging outside her clothing store, deputies say

The owner of a clothing store in southern California was killed after an argument about a rainbow Pride flag hanging outside the business, deputies said.Laura Ann “Lauri” Carleton, 66, was found suffering from a gunshot wound Friday evening at her store Mag.Pi in Cedar Glen, just east of Lake Arrowhead, a news release from the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department said. She was pronounced dead at the scene.“Through further investigation, detectives learned the suspect made several disparaging remarks about a rainbow flag that stood outside the store before shooting Carleton,” the release said.The suspect, who hasn’t been identified by investigators, ran away after the shooting and was later found about a mile away, still armed, deputies said.“When deputies attempted to contact the suspect, a lethal force encounter occurred and the suspect was pronounced deceased,” the sheriff’s department said. “No deputies were injured during the incident.”The shooting comes as the LGBTQ+ comm...Man shot by deputies after two women reportedly stabbed at California apartment complex

Frank Gonzalez said.The deputies were directed to a specific apartment unit, where they made contact with a man in his 20s suspected of carrying out the stabbing, according to an Orange County Sheriff’s Department statement.A little less than 15 minutes after deputies arrived, according to the sheriff statement, “an officer involved shooting occurred,” and the man was shot and injured.Authorities have released few details about the police shooting, including whether the man was armed or threatening any deputies or civilians.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — When Republican candidates for president gather for their first debate Wednesday in Milwaukee, the spotlight will not only be on them but also on Wisconsin’s role as one of a shrinking handful of genuine battleground states.Republicans chose Milwaukee for the first debate and for the national convention in just 11 months largely because of Wisconsin’s well-earned status as a swing state. Four of the past six presidential elections have been decided by less than a percentage point here, with Donald Trump winning narrowly in 2016 before losing by a similar margin in 2020.“Everybody needs to be prepared for all-out war as usual,” said longtime Republican strategist Stephan Thompson. To participate in Wednesday’s debate, the Republican National Committee required candidates to meet donor and polling thresholds and sign a pledge to support the GOP candidate in the general election. Trump, the frontrunner who faces criminal charges in four separate cases, ...Ben Foster quits Hollywood-owned Wrexham and heads back into retirement

WREXHAM, Wales (AP) — Ben Foster is heading back into retirement, months after helping Wrexham — the soccer team owned by Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney — gain promotion back into the English Football League.The former Manchester United goalkeeper came out of retirement in March to sign a short-term deal with Wrexham and played a key role in the team winning the fifth-tier National League.The 40-year-old Foster agreed to extend his stay at Wrexham for another year but decided, after a 5-5 draw against Swindon on Saturday, that he will quit the game again.“The honest truth is that my performances this season haven’t reached the level I demand of myself and I feel that now is the right time to retire,” Foster said. “At the forefront of my mind when making this decision, was not only what was best for me but also the club, and making the decision now gives the club every opportunity to assess their options before the (transfer) window closes. Wrexham will always have ...Blank to have Atlanta team in TGL high-tech golf league founded by Woods, McIlroy

ATLANTA (AP) — Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank is adding a second golf component to his business empire by purchasing one of six teams in Tiger Woods’ high-tech TGL league scheduled to launch in January.Blank, who also owns MLS Atlanta United and the PGA Tour Superstore, said he was drawn to the league’s potential to attract new golf fans with its interaction of tech and live action in a prime-time weekly format. Each of the six teams will have three PGA Tour players.“The players are excited about it,” Blank said. “It’s a different format for them and this will be fun for them. … If it’s fun for the players, it will be fun for the viewers.”Blank’s Atlanta team was officially unveiled on Monday.Woods, Rory McIlroy and former Golf Channel president Mike McCarley have founded TGL under TMRW Sports — pronounced “tomorrow.” The league, which plans to unveil three more teams soon, will operate in partnership with the PGA Tour.“There is no better stalwart support...Fairfax Co. police officer arrested for DUI after crash that injured 7

BERLIN (AP) — Germany’s central bank anticipates that the country’s economy, Europe’s biggest, will be more or less stagnant again in the current quarter — adding to a string of weak performances.German gross domestic product stagnated in the second quarter after declining in both of the two previous quarters as the country struggled with high energy prices, rising borrowing costs and weakness in China, which has been a key trading partner.The International Monetary Fund forecast last month that Germany would be the globe’s only major economy to shrink this year, even with feeble economic growth around the world amid rising interest rates and the threat of growing inflation.A monthly report Monday from the Bundesbank, Germany’s central bank, indicated that the picture isn’t about to improve. “In the third quarter of 2023, German economic output will probably remain largely unchanged again,” it wrote.The bank said that, while private spending should cont...Is it illegal for your dog to sit on your lap while driving?

DENVER (KDVR) — It's adorable to watch your dog look out the driver's seat window as they rest comfortably on your lap, but it's more dangerous for both you and the dog. Keeping your dog in the backseat while you drive even though they'd prefer your lap isn't a form of unusual punishment, it's actually safer. There's no specific law prohibiting your furry friend from sitting on your lap, but there can be consequences if your furbaby becomes a distraction. Dog rescued after 5 nights, 4 days alone in mountains "There's really no law that restricts a dog to a certain part of the vehicle. With that said though, if somebody rides with a dog, or really any kind of animal on their lap, and it causes them to violate some other traffic law, that's when it's a problem," said Colorado State Patrol Public Information Officer Sgt. Troy Kessler. "It typically becomes careless driving because you're not driving with regard, you're allowing your focus, which shouldn't be on the road, to be taken...Latest news
