You guys all right?” a male deputy called out.Before the teens, two of them minors, were ordered out of the vehicle, several pops are heard in the video.“Dude what the hell is going on?” the female deputy asks as sirens are heard in the background.“They’re throwing off firecrackers behind us,” another deputy responds.“All right, are we going to start extracting the driver?” the female deputy continue...Public warned of toxic algae bloom at Los Angeles County lake

By Seth Borenstein | Associated PressWASHINGTON — July has been so hot thus far that scientists calculate that this month will be the hottest globally on record and likely the warmest human civilization has seen, even though there are several days left to sweat through.The World Meteorological Organization and the European Union’s Copernicus Climate Change Service on Thursday proclaimed July’s heat is beyond record-smashing. They said Earth’s temperature has been temporarily passing over a key warming threshold: the internationally accepted goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degree Celsius (2.7 degrees Fahrenheit).Temperatures were 1.5 degrees warmer than pre-industrial times for a record 16 days this month, but the Paris climate accord aims to keep the 20- or 30-year global temperature average to 1.5 degrees. A few days of temporarily beating that threshold have happened before, but never in July.July has been so off-the-charts hot with heat waves blistering t...Trump accused of asking staffer to delete Mar-a-Lago camera footage

By Eric Tucker, Zeke Miller and Alanna Durkin Richer | Associated PressWASHINGTON — Donald Trump faced new charges Thursday in a case accusing him of illegally possessing classified documents, with prosecutors alleging that he asked a staffer to delete camera footage at his Florida estate in an effort to obstruct a federal investigation.The indictment includes new counts of obstruction and willful retention of national defense information, adding fresh detail to an indictment issued last month against Trump and a close aide. The additional charges came as a surprise given the escalating anticipation of a possible additional indictment in Washington over his efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election. The updated indictment makes clear that the vast — and unknown — scope of legal exposure faced by Trump as he seeks to reclaim the White House in 2024 while fending off criminal cases in multiple cities.The updated allegations in the indictment center on surveilla...Crews respond to large fire in Bay Point
