UPDATE: U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) completed a third round of strikes this week against Iran, July 11, holding Iranian forces accountable for attacking another commercial ship in the Strait of Hormuz.

U.S. forces hit approximately 140 Iranian military targets with precision munitions launched by land- and sea-based fighter aircraft, drones, and naval vessels. Targets included Iranian missile and drone sites, naval capabilities, ammunition storage facilities, communication networks, and coastal surveillance locations.

During three nights of strikes this week, CENTCOM has struck more than 300 targets at the direction of the Commander in Chief to degrade Iran’s ability to attack civilian mariners and commercial vessels freely transiting the strait. Commercial vessel transits through the vital international maritime corridor continue.

Since early May, U.S. forces have helped facilitate the successful transit of more than 800 commercial vessels and 400 million barrels of crude oil through the Strait of Hormuz.

A string of violent confrontations from this Portland man led to a group of women going on the offensive and attacking him.

As investigators review the incident, the case is also drawing attention to concerns about policing resources, lack of funding, and how repeat offenders are handled, especially after this suspect did not received jail time.

Just steps from Crypto.com Arena, home to championship banners and sold-out crowds, you'll find a completely different side of Los Angeles.

Turn the corner, and an abandoned apartment building covered in graffiti stands in sharp contrast to one of the country's most recognizable sports and entertainment districts. It's a reminder that in LA, prosperity and neglect can exist side by side.

From there, we head to Figueroa Street, where everyday street activity and side hustles offer another glimpse into the city's unique character. These scenes are part of the complex reality that many residents and visitors experience beyond the postcards and Hollywood image.

Los Angeles is full of contrasts. Luxury apartments stand near vacant buildings. World-famous venues sit blocks away from neighborhoods facing economic challenges. It's a city that's constantly evolving—and often difficult to define with a single narrative.

Whether you see these differences as signs of opportunity, growing pains, or something else entirely, they raise important questions about development, housing, and the future of downtown LA.

Watch the full video to see these locations for yourself and hear what people on the street had to say.

What's the biggest contrast you've noticed while exploring Los Angeles?

Chicago PD arrested him 5 times in 13 months on drug sale charges.

Prosecutors dropped most of the cases.

But now he’s got a real big problem.

One of his recent customers turned out to be an undercover ATF agent.
