Description
Chaos in Torrance — a former student at Switzer Learning Center allegedly stabbed three staff members and tried to attack a fourth before being arrested. The suspect then claimed he’d planted two pipe bombs near the school, sending bomb squads to both the campus and his Redondo Beach home. The Switzer Center serves students with learning differences, according to its website, and police are continuing to investigate. 
From mayhem to money — Costco’s clothing business is booming, with shoppers snatching up everything from jackets to jeans faster than you can say “Kirkland Signature Couture.” 
Then onto sports and state politics: the Dodgers face the Brewers, now just eight wins away from their next big milestone. Meanwhile, Governor Gavin Newsom signed SB 79, a sweeping housing bill allowing nine-story buildings near transit stops in eight California counties — despite opposition from Mayor Karen Bass and L.A. City Council. The bill’s numerous exemptions and unclear zoning maps have cities scrambling to interpret the changes before they take effect in July 2026. 
And in San Diego, a moment of terror at the San Diego Zoo as a gorilla charged the glass, shattering part of the enclosure and sending guests running.
