LASD Homicide Assisted Hawthorne PD with Shooting Death Invst. El Segundo Blvd. / Crenshaw Blvd, City of Hawthorne - http://nixle.us/CPZJA

Los Angeles: Two men were killed and a woman was wounded in a shooting in a Mid-City strip mall early Monday morning following an altercation. The shooting occurred just before 1 a.m. in a strip mall which contains a 7-Eleven in the 4200 block of West Washington Boulevard. Two men were pronounced dead at the scene and a woman was rushed to a hospital with undisclosed injuries. The woman may have been an innocent bystander. The shooting appeared to have stemmed from an argument that occurred involving patrons of a bar called Gringo’s Mariscos and Beer, located in the strip mall. “At this point, it looks like one of the victims was leaving a bar that’s at this same strip mall, and some kind of altercation occurred, and it looks like there was an exchange of shots,” LAPD Lt. John Radtke said. It’s unclear if the two men who were killed both exchanged gunfire with one another, Radtke said, but at least one of them was armed. One of the men was found dead in the driver’s seat of a car. No names have been released.

A chase that began early Monday in southern Los Angeles County continued on freeways in Orange County before officers blocked in the hatchback. The chase began near the 105 and 405 freeways when officers tried to pull over a driver for speeding. The silver hatchback reached speeds around 100 mph in the Long Beach area, but slowed after a spike strip damaged the driver's side front tire. The driver exited the freeway in the Laguna Woods area. The driver tried to make a U-turn, but officers boxed the car in on the 73 Freeway near Alicia Parkway. The driver was removed from the car and arrested. Details about the driver's identity were not immediately available.

BREAKING! Decker’s Nursery was asked by the fire department if they'd provide a small portion of their parking lot in order to set up an arch detail for Officer Tsakos’ funeral.

Not only did they say "absolutely not" - but their next move was mind blowing.

Victoria's Secret has unveiled a new line of more revealing, skimpy medical masks so women can look sexy while out and about during the pandemic.

"Now you don't have to hide your luscious lips behind an ugly, unattractive medical mask," said a Victoria's Secret spokesperson. "Men will go crazy for a glimpse of your forbidden mouth. Whether you're at the grocery store or out for a casual jog, you can observe local mask ordinances and still look incredibly sexy." (Read more.)

On Twitter, "Uncle Tim" was trending, a racist reference playing off "Uncle Tom". They attacked the Republican senator for speaking out against Biden. Let that sink in.

3 May acts as a reminder to governments of the need to respect their commitment to press freedom and is also a day of reflection among media professionals about issues of press freedom and professional ethics. Just as importantly, World Press Freedom Day is a day of support for media which are targets for the restraint, or abolition, of press freedom. It is also a day of remembrance for those journalists who lost their lives in the pursuit of a story. #FreePressDay

There you have it, folks. Do you really need any more proof? The timing couldn't have been more perfect.
