SOUTH LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) — Authorities said two men were killed and four more wounded in a shooting outside a South LA liquor store Saturday evening. The incident happened outside Monarch Liquors around 8:30 p.m. at 88th and Vermont Avenue in what officials are calling a drive-by shooting. The four wounded are expected to survive. KCAL9’s Jeff Nguyen said detectives told him there were bullet casings up and down the street. Witnesses said they heard about a dozen shots. They said several people riding in a black, four-door vehicle drove by and began shooting. The injured were taken to nearby hospitals. Nguyen spoke to several witnesses, none of them wanted to appear on camera. “I was in a car with my cousin,” one woman said, “and they just started shooting out the window. I got out when the shooting started and I went in cause my mom was in the store. And basically when I came out, a person that I know was shot and on the ground. And shot a couple of times. He was just an innocent bystander. It’s crazy.” Another man said he saw people running for cover. “I saw people running towards the corner,” he said, “and when I came to see it, my friends were still there. And there was a guy dead. And I just backed up, I didn’t want to see it.” What led up to the shooting is under investigation.

HHS Official Who Made Anti-Muslim Comments And Spread Conspiracy Theories Resigns
written by EvaVallejo
(CNN) — Ximena Barreto, a far-right political pundit who was appointed in December to a communications post at the Department of Health and Human Services, resigned on Friday, an HHS official confirmed to CNN . Barreto was placed on leave in April following reports from CNN and Media Matters that she spread conspiracies and made anti-Muslim comments. After issuing a public apology, she returned to work but was moved from her job as a deputy director of communications. Barreto’s resignation was first reported by Politico . Last month, Mediaite reported additional inflammatory tweets from Barreto including that she tweeted in June, after her public apology, that CNN’s story on her tweets was “a smear.” Liberal watchdog Media Matters has reported that Barreto called Islam “a cult” and pushed the false Pizzagate conspiracy theory, which alleged that Hillary Clinton was part of a child-sex ring based in part at a Washington, DC, pizza restaurant. A subsequent KFile review of her Twitter account “RepublicanChick” found that Barreto also repeatedly used the hashtag #BanIslam and twice shared conspiracy theories about the death of Democratic National Committee staffer Seth Rich. Barreto also shared a conspiracy theory that French President Emmanuel Macron was controlled by the Rothschild family and that Clinton and former President Barack Obama were controlled by investor and Democratic mega-donor George Soros. Both the Rothschilds and Soros are frequent targets of anti-Semitic conspiracy theories. Before joining HHS Barreto did work for Donald Trump’s campaign in California during the 2016 election. A copy of Barreto’s résumé , obtained by CNN last month through a Freedom of Information Act request, also showed she listed as qualifications for the communications job her previous work for a conspiratorial website and a YouTube show she co-hosted on which she made anti-Muslim comments. — Andrew Kaczynski The-CNN-Wire ( & © 2018 Cable News Network, Inc., a Time Warner Company.

Fires Burning Out-Of-Control In Napa, Mendocino Counties And Near Yosemite
written by MarieMBRapoehdd
LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) — In addition to the brush fires burning out of control in Idyllwild and Redding, several other large blazes are giving firefighter’s massive headaches around the state and nearby. In Napa County, the Steele Fire has destroyed or seriously damaged 10-15 homes. Napa County Sheriff’s have issued a mandatory evacuation for the area. In Mendocino County in Northern California, the Mendocino Complex Fire is what Cal-Fire is calling the River and Ranch Fires — the two blazes were burning miles apart and combined to burn about 9,000 acres. That fire is just two percent contained, authorities said. A fire burning near Yosemite — the Ferguson Fire — is about 30 percent contained. The Ferguson Fire caused the closure of most of Yosemite and authorities expect it to remain closed at least through Friday. A fire in the rural community of De Luz, near Fallbrook, has forced the evacuation of 100 people from their homes. That blaze began Saturday afternoon. The fire has burned about 50 acres and is only two percent contained, firefighters said. Governor Brown on Saturday declared a state of emergency in the state because of the Mendocino, Napa and Lake fires. The Governor also ordered state flags to be flown at half-staff in honor of two firefighters killed battling the Carr Fire. On Saturday, the death toll in that fire rose when two children and their great-grandmother were confirmed dead.
