Episode: Vincent Thomas Bridge closed as battery fire burns 24+ hours
Description: The Vincent Thomas Bridge was still closed while fire officials devised a plan to remove an overturned truck that went up in flames over 24 hours earlier with lithium-ion batteries on board. Governor Gavin Newsom signed legislation authorizing speed cameras to be installed at five locations along Pacific Coast Highway. In more camera-related news, the LASD cut the ribbon Friday on a 'Real Time Watch Center' that will live-stream footage during emergencies using public-facing cameras owned by people and businesses. And Cheech and Chong are suing the state of California; guess why.
