Speaker 2 (00:09):
KFI AM at sixty. It is The Conway Show. A
little lefter six o'clock on Tuesday. Mark Thompson is not
here today. He's at home with a couple of very
sick older cats. And you know Mark, he is the
best father to those cats in the world, and so
(00:31):
he's trying to take care of those kiddies. So well,
maybe we'll see him next week. But we've got some
more stuff for you here. We just heard Gary and
Shannon I phoned into their program this afternoon. That was cool.
If you missed that, that was in the five o'clock hour.
Steph Fush called us in the four o'clock hour top
of the show, so you can go listen to that
(00:52):
as well. And we move on. Door Dash is in
the news. Door Dash, Yeah, customer allegedly tra down the
driver at home and vandalizes the car. What's going on
with people? It's going on?
Speaker 3 (01:08):
She did this over a ten piece chicken wing. She
passed friars to come here now at six.
Speaker 4 (01:17):
Milwaukee Police investigating a frightening encounter for this door Dash
delivery driver.
Speaker 5 (01:22):
Court documents say a customer allegedly followed Faith Morris home
because of an undelivered food order.
Speaker 6 (01:28):
My Lighthouse reporter Ben Jordan spoke with Faith today about
her push for policy changes.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
At door Dash. All right, I'm a big wings fan,
so I semi empathize sympathize with her. I wouldn't follow
the guy home, but I'd at least get in the
car and wonder where my wings are, especially from Pizza Hut.
They have the best man uh, big Wang's wings over
(01:57):
North Hollywood, top shelf wings, Pizza Hut and big Wings.
Where do you get your wings Crozier in Montclair? Say
they again? Where do you get your wings in Montclair?
Oh they're Clairemont places.
Speaker 7 (02:08):
Yeah, Claremont, thank you very much. But it's funny you
say that because there are no wings places in Clairemont?
Speaker 1 (02:13):
Is that right?
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Basically?
Speaker 7 (02:14):
In Montclair? I mean you can get wings at some places,
but there are really no wings places.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Oh that's an idea, you and I. It's actually really
you know, I never thought about that. You have nineteen colleges,
there are no wings.
Speaker 7 (02:25):
You ain't kidding, well, like you're saying that you know
you can get them at generally, any pizza place is
also going to have wings. Yeah, but there are no
wings specific really player there's like one of the one
of the wild wings or whatever they are. There's one
in Montclair and Montclair Plaza there. Do you have a
pizza hut in Claremont? No, oh, buddy, we're going to
open one. There's a roundtable and that's pretty good.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
And they have wings. Their wings are pretty good.
Speaker 8 (02:47):
You.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
For some reason, pizza parlors all picked up on wings,
like in the eighties or nineties.
Speaker 7 (02:52):
Yeah, well because they just buy the frozen put them
in the fryer and throw some sauce ons.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Yeah, what nuts?
Speaker 8 (02:57):
So they devil.
Speaker 7 (02:57):
Pizza out there.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
That's really good. They do good wings. I think Big
Wangs wings might be the best in las name Bear
had them is the only one. No, I think there's
one in Hollywood. Used to be one in downtown. I
know there's one in North Hollywood. Oh Jesus, and it's
the best, absolute best.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
She picked up one of those breaks off of the
neighbor's lawn and she threw it onto here.
Speaker 9 (03:21):
A smash wind shield.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
This looks like she was beating my car with.
Speaker 9 (03:25):
The four way a hammered hood, not.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
To my rear view mirror off. Bust this window and
all the whole window out here.
Speaker 9 (03:33):
And passenger side windows now in pieces on the ground.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
It must be good wings. I'll tell you. If you're
gonna go after somebody's car and bust it up, it's
got to be unbelievable wings.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
This ain't no junk yard car.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
This is twenty twenty four Morrison. Oh wait, I just
looked this up. Big Wangs, the sports bar chain known
for its wings, has permanently closed all locations OOO. Several
locations were previously located in Los Angeles, including Hollywood, North Hollywood,
and Downtown. I got all those three right, but they're
now all closed. The former Big Wings on Kouwang and
(04:06):
Hollywood has been taken over by Third Base LA. So
there you go. Oh man, the best wings are gone.
I know what happened to that guy. Every time I
went in there was packed. I don't know how he wanted.
Maybe COVID got him.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
This ain't no junk yard card I did.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
This is a woman who didn't have her wings delivered,
and then she chased and tracked down the door dash
driver and attacked the car.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
This ain't no junk yard car.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
This is't twenty twenty four.
Speaker 9 (04:31):
Faith Morris's livelihood as a door Dash delivery driver.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
I can no longer work right now.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
I can't make deliveries.
Speaker 9 (04:38):
Now out of commission with six thousand dollars worth of
damage all over eighteen dollars worth of fast food.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Wait, how much damage of this car?
Speaker 9 (04:48):
Now out of commission? With six thousand dollars worth of
damage all over eighteen dollars worth of fast food?
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Well, not just fast food, worth of fast food and wings.
People know the difference.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
I was outside for ten minutes.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
This is the hood.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
I'm not about to sit outside with my kids in
front of somebody's house I don't know for over ten minutes.
Speaker 9 (05:11):
The search warrant says Faith was unable to complete the
delivery due to losing internet connection with the door Dash
app and returned home. Faith says that's when the customer
bombarded her with calls.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
She says, you just told me to have a blessed night.
You said you was at home. I got your location.
Speaker 9 (05:29):
Minutes later, a knock on her door caught on camera before.
Faith says she saw the woman.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
By the way, not just a knock like a world champion,
like a world series of knocks. That might be that
might be the longest knock in the history of the world.
It just kept going on and on. It must have
been you know, it must have been thirty knocks. Got almighty.
Nobody knows how to knock. It's two knocks. It's just
(05:54):
that's it. Maybe three, that's it. That's mine. Yeah, that's
a wrap. But this woman went on and on Woodpecker.
Speaker 9 (06:06):
Minutes later, a knock on her door caught on camera
before Faith says she saw the woman proceed to bash
her car. She believes the customer was able to track
her home using the apps GPS since the order was
never delivered.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
I actually need a lawyer so that by the end
it is I can own door dash and change the policy,
because first of.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
All, somebody doesn't know what the local lawyers, the strength
of local lawyers. I don't know if you're going to
own DoorDash over a busted window.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
So that by the end it is I can own
door dash and change the policy because first of all, yes,
DoorDash policies.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Need to change.
Speaker 9 (06:45):
DoorDash and TMJ for a statement that says this customer's action,
well She does.
Speaker 8 (06:50):
Have a.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
Point, because if this woman killed her and y and
they and she tracked her using door dash as, that
would have been the change of the name of the company,
but not six thousand dollars.
Speaker 9 (07:05):
By the damage, this customer's actions are completely uncalled for,
unacceptable and disturbing.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
That's true. That's true, over Wings, totally true.
Speaker 9 (07:13):
We have permanently banned them from our platform and are
in touch with the dasher directly to offer our support.
The Milwaukee Police Department says the investigation is ongoing. We
are seeking a known suspect at this time. What do
you hope happens to the person who did this to you?
Speaker 8 (07:30):
I hope that they.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
Don't take this lightly at all. Well, she did this
is not warranted A ten pacee chicken.
Speaker 9 (07:37):
Wayne reporting in Milwaukee, Ben Jordan, Yeah, I'm with her
on that one.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
Not warranted. A ten pacee chicken.
Speaker 9 (07:42):
Wayne reporting in Milwaukee, Ben Jordan, TMJ four.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
News, Wow, all right, Tmjane. Yeah, that's what I get doing, TMJ.
Is that next to std it's another station there in town.
HIV almighty, all right, relive on KFI AM six. It
is the Conway Show. Who I got breaking news? Coming
(08:09):
out of the Woodland Hills area. There was a guy,
his last name was Rogers. He's a suspect in a
murder up in the state of Washington. And he left Washington.
And where do murders and rapists and giant a holes
all get all flocked to the magnet Los Angeles. And yep,
(08:31):
he drove down to Los Angeles and he's up in
the Woodland Hills area off of Tapanga and it looked
like Topanga near Mulholland. And he was spotted by a
couple of people there And now looks like they got
their guy. And he should have known. You remember when
the SLA came to town. Patty Hurst was on the run
for six months with the SLA, and then they came
(08:53):
to La and they were here for ten minutes and
the cops had their house on fire. We're shooting at him.
The cops here are pretty good at what they do.
And when you come front of state and you've murdered somebody,
they stepped you pretty quick. And they got a lot
of resources. They found this guy in Woodland Hills and
right here in the San Fernano Valley. Let's find out
(09:14):
what happened here.
Speaker 10 (09:15):
To this guy and have said they've been looking over
their shoulders for the last twenty four hours. Ever since
rogers car was found abandoned in this parking lot, as
you mentioned, he has since been spotted by a Los
Angeles security guard and arrested. After a week on the run.
Investigators launched a multi state search for this man. Fifty
one year old Alexander Lee Rogers, wanted for allegedly fatally
(09:37):
stabbing a woman, Don Peters and critically injuring her brother
in law in Washington State on August fifth, one thousand
miles away and one week ago to the day. The
suspect is apparently seen entering the couple's Longview home in
this surveillance video. He likely knew the layout because he
worked as a handyman for the Peters family and had
known them for a long time.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Authority save oh, he was the handyman that does it.
You know, the handyman tired of taking orders, tired of
making crappy money, and they turn on their owners or
their employers.
Speaker 10 (10:09):
He likely knew the layout because he worked as a
handyman for the Peters family and had known them for
a long time. Authority say Rogers spent the last twenty
years in prison for attacking a couple with a machete
in the early two thousands, and had been released within
the last ten months. Speaking to us from his Washington
State home, the couple's nephew described the gruesome crime got.
Speaker 11 (10:30):
Him in the throat over here. I think before he
passed out, he was able to stand up and then
spent around and hit the medical alert.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Button on the alarm system to trigger the cops.
Speaker 10 (10:43):
In a coincidental encounter, Longview police questioned.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Roger, Wow, this is in Longview. This is across the
bridge from where my wife was born, and when we
go up to Oregon, we do all of our shopping
for food or whatever in this little town in Longview.
It's beautiful, spectacular. I can't believe this.
Speaker 10 (11:04):
In a coincidental encounter, Longview police questioned Rogers in a
local parking lot a couple of hours before the stabbing
for a non criminal vehicle licensing issue. Even though he
doesn't have any known ties to SoCal, Rogers made his
way here to Calabasas like.
Speaker 8 (11:20):
They all do.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Right, no connections to southern California, but they understand that
you can mix in pretty easily with all the other
nuts that live down here, or, as George Carlin calls them,
life's most interesting guys. Well, here they come.
Speaker 12 (11:35):
His car found Monday, mugshot.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Yeah, it's strange looking. I'm looking, dude, very Yeah, scary.
Speaker 8 (11:43):
M hmm.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
It's almost like I thought that was a Halloween thing
he was doing. But that's my time.
Speaker 12 (11:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
I wouldn't hire him to do work around my house.
There's no way, right, especially he spent the last ten
years or twenty years in prison for murder. Oh, with
a machete. Actually, yeah, odd, Well, you got a good
head on your shoulders. Angel. Oh, you know I don't
flip people off anymore.
Speaker 8 (12:05):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
You know how to pick him, that's right. That's why
you're alive.
Speaker 10 (12:08):
His car found Monday, abandoned in a parking lot on
Calabasas Road. Throughout the week, Captain Brandon McNew says Rogers
was seen at locations around West Hills and southern Calabasas.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
He was in the area for a while at different
stores and so as we developed that information, of course,
he's long long gone from those establishments.
Speaker 10 (12:28):
Sheriff's deputies took every tip seriously, even setting up a
containment line in a Woodland Hills neighborhood off of Mulholland Drive,
only to break down and clear the site. The LAPD
Olympic Division ultimately took Rogers into custody, a sigh of
relief for this terrified southern California community.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Okay, so we spent a lot of time in West Hills,
Calabasas area, maholl And Tpanga, but they got him with
the Olympic Division. So somehow he made his way without
his car, made his way into near downtown Lam. Anybody
that acts.
Speaker 10 (12:58):
Somebody up with a machete, I mean that's a different
level lot crazy.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Right, Yes, yeah, I think you nailed it. Anybody that acts.
Speaker 10 (13:06):
Somebody up with a machete, right, I mean that's a
different level lot crazy.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Right, Yes, you're right, exactly right, see right, yeah right.
I don't want the guy run on the round.
Speaker 8 (13:14):
Here, you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (13:15):
I totally do. I get it, man, I get it.
Guys cutting people up with knives. I don't mit everything's
a humorous in LA. Guys killed people. I don't want
the guy run on the round here, you know what
I mean?
Speaker 10 (13:26):
I know exactly what you're mean and so far formal
charges or plans to extradite rogers back to Washington the
state have not yet been discussed. That's the latest in Calabasas.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
I'm Rachel Menotop.
Speaker 8 (13:37):
I'll send it back to you in the studio there.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
He goes back to Longview, Washington. And I know that
I know Longview, Washington as well as I know the valley.
I've spent twenty two twenty three years in and around Longview, Washington.
When I go visit my wife's family, we go up
every summer, trying to go up every winter. Almost every day.
We go to Longview, every single day. It's a small,
(14:00):
little beautiful town, blue collar. A lot of mills there,
paper mills, product you know, people working, you know, shift jobs,
making paper, towels, napkins, bags, all that stuff. Longview, Washington
is a big, huge source. That's where the Columbia River
(14:20):
comes up. You see a lot of grain ships coming
through there, cargo ships coming through there onloading you know,
grain and beans and wheat and rice and corn and
off to the rest of the world. And it's a
very busy harbor, very busy community. But it's been hit
hard with a lot of layoffs and a lot of
(14:43):
you know, companies that have pulled out. So thank god
they got this guy because look, he's spent time for
cutting people up. I spent ten or twenty years, remember
what he said in prison for killing somebody machete. He
gets out, he's out for ten months and does it again.
So if he did it again up in Longview, chances
(15:05):
are he probably would have done it here when he
got desperate. And thank god they got him. Thank god
LAPD got this guy. Now back up to Washington, you
know on Southwest their last airlines right into Portland, right
in Longview, and that's where he'll be cool in his
heels for some time. I bet he never gets out
of jail again. That's a a rap on that guy.
(15:28):
If you missed the first hour of the show, we
had Steph Fuscham who's recovering in a hospital from his horrible,
horrible injuries of a traffic act that he had last
Thursday afternoon, and we didn't know where he was from
two o'clock till ten o'clock at night, eight hours he
was missing, and he was listed as a John Doe
(15:48):
in a hospital in the Harbor area. And he's had
two or three surgeries already. He's probably gonna have a
couple more to get his left arm cleaned up and
working again, and we will stay on top of that.
Speaker 8 (16:01):
Man.
Speaker 7 (16:01):
It was just even hearing that detail, like late Thursday night,
when you know, got a little bit of information on
Friday morning that I heard that he was just in
there as a John Doe. It just sends a chill
up your spine.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
It's horrible. I mean, especially you know, because he does
have sort of a high profile, you know job, you
know where he's not working at a you know, at
a save On or you know, Standard shoes or Orange Julius.
And the combination of factors that saved his life is astounding,
you know, between all of those great Samaritans that just
(16:32):
that just jumped in unbelievable, pulled him out of the car,
you know, wrapped up his arm, it just kept him
his life and and all of that. And he was
a job I mean, he could have. It's just the
possibilities to just horror horrific. And also you know, if
if I don't remember who pointed out, I think it
was Angel. If you know that that good smirit that
(16:53):
we had on yesterday, if he had made the fire department,
he wouldn't have been working at the Apple store and
the bar downtown, he wouldn't driving that area, and just
all of those things that come together to save that
man's life. A nurse was one of the first people
that pulled over. That's incredible. In Los Angeles, one of
the first people that pulls over and helps you out
(17:13):
is a nurse.
Speaker 7 (17:13):
And the detail that they said, if she hadn't been there,
they would have poured water on his arm, just completely
messing up his arm, right, because she stopped him said,
don't pour water on someone's arm.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Was that's on fire, right, And I don't know anybody
else that would have known that other than a nurse.
I would have poured water all over the guy thought,
and that would have been the worst thing you could do.
Speaker 12 (17:33):
And she wasn't even supposed to be there because she
had just picked up her husband from the airport and
he hates the one oh five and he was trying
to stay away from the one.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Right, And then they actually got back on the one
oh five.
Speaker 8 (17:45):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
That's crazy. It's unbelievable how that all came together.
Speaker 8 (17:49):
All right.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
You can go listen to on a podcasts. It is available.
Steph Ush's first interview after that radical radical accident. We're
live on KFI.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior. Demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Ah. Yes, Stevie Wonder bomp bom bom, bom bomb ba
to have lyrics. No, it's just a bed. Huh what
that sucks? All right? Uh, there's some outrage going on
in Encino. People are outraged. Why are they outraged over
(18:26):
the crime? Not this time. They're outraged because they want
to build a homeless shelter right in the heart of Encino.
If you're familiar with Ncino, it's near the Encino car Wash.
It's just a little bit east of white Oak on
Ventura Boulevard, So it's west of Balboa and east of
(18:49):
white Oak, very close to white Oak. And they want
to build a shelter there for homeless people. And the
people of Encino they're all for homeless shelters. They don't.
They vote for people they want to erect homeless shelters.
They raise money, but they don't want it in their city.
(19:10):
Seems odd, right, you know, they're always voting for it
and always raising money for it, but they don't want
to be lived near it, ma'am, not at all. They
just want you guys to have it, not them.
Speaker 4 (19:21):
Well, we were there for the ninety minute back and
forth discussion about this homeless shelter coming to Encino. The
nonprofit in charge of building it and reconstructing this old
motel says it has a plan, but the neighbors say
it's not a good one.
Speaker 7 (19:37):
This is not right.
Speaker 8 (19:38):
It should not be in our community, and this needs
to be shut down.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
Ew I'm sorry, that was me. Sorry, this needs to be.
Speaker 4 (19:45):
Shut down, and Sino neighbors heeded as they came face
to face with the nonprofit opening a homeless shelter on
Ventura Boulevard. Hope the Mission CEO.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Yeah, it's right on Ventura. It's that little hotel that
they bought. They're going to turn it into I think
a twenty eight bed homeless shelter for I believe teams.
Speaker 4 (20:05):
Hope the Mission CEO can craft on the defense.
Speaker 8 (20:09):
Any calls that come in, we will look into it.
We will address them.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
They're going to have a civil discourse or we're not.
Speaker 7 (20:15):
They asked the question I'm answering, and you're trying to
interrupt me.
Speaker 8 (20:18):
Do you want to speak or not?
Speaker 2 (20:19):
The non Oh, it's getting heated. Heated it and cino.
Speaker 4 (20:22):
The nonprofit bought the old oak Tree in Motel last
year to convert it into a shelter for thirty eight
young adults from eighteen to twenty four at risk of
becoming homeless.
Speaker 5 (20:32):
It's going to be twenty four hour security on site
as well.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
But nearby businesses are worried the new addition will open
the floodgates to bring drug use and crime into the area.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
Yeah, the businesses around there, they think they're going to
move if the shelter opens up.
Speaker 13 (20:47):
Now, I'm not, I guess supporting them, but you know,
there has to be a system that can be monitored
and the safety of the people is important if they're
going to have securities, if they're going to have a
police force here.
Speaker 5 (20:59):
Once we have a big sign over there that says
it's a youth shelter.
Speaker 8 (21:03):
I'm going to get parents starting to cancel their contracts
with us.
Speaker 4 (21:06):
A big sticking point for neighbors the amnesty lockers where
the shelters youth can store their items.
Speaker 9 (21:11):
You cannot put illegal drugs in there, you cannot put
guns in there.
Speaker 7 (21:16):
That locker has to be opened by the security guard.
Speaker 8 (21:19):
They don't have a key.
Speaker 4 (21:21):
Craft says seventy percent of the youth in the shelter
have gone through foster care, many of them have jobs,
and all of them will be required to follow these
sixty two rules.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
One ny Wow, a lot of rules for these kids.
Sixty two man oh Man, sixty two rules, what could
it possibly be? Sixty two rules.
Speaker 4 (21:38):
When they come to the facility, including nightly check ins,
no guests, and no crime of any kind. Are your
fears assuaged?
Speaker 8 (21:47):
Absolutely not. I am very concerned.
Speaker 6 (21:49):
I'm actually even more concerned after hearing that Ken didn't
value what the neighbors were saying.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Oh no, and Cino, well, you guys voted for those
by you didn't want it in your backyard, and guess
what it's coming.
Speaker 8 (22:04):
I don't care.
Speaker 10 (22:05):
If he signs all the rules that he wants, it
doesn't happen.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
He makes false promises the clientele that he's dealing with.
Speaker 10 (22:12):
It's not the rosy picture that he painted. A bunch
of kids just packing their sysim the street, lunchboxes and
going to school.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Now city and county, and by the way, this is
really difficult for these people in Encino because these are kids,
you know, I mean relatively speaking, you know, eighteen to
twenty four year olds, and they're at risk of falling
into the foster care system and going into strangers' homes,
and so they want this shelter as an alternative. And
the people have been seen are like no, no, no, no, no, no.
(22:42):
We don't want it. We don't want it. So it's
very difficult for the people in the Cino who vote
for this stuff all the time but don't want it
in their backyard.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
Now, City and County homelessness representatives, we're also here to
answer questions that the community has. Now, this is just

Spirit Airlines warning sharehold shareholders it may not survive if
it cannot come up with enough cash to pay its
upcoming debt obligations. This is according to a filing with
the SEC. Spirit pointing to slowing demand for domestic travel
and raising operation costs among the factors. Contributing to its
continued losses. The Florida based carrier just got out of

bankruptcy in March. Spirit says it may sell spare engines
or its right to use gates at various airports to
generate more cash.

Says it may sell spare engines, spare engines, sparelines have
spare engines.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
That seems crazy, crazy, All right, there's a male theft
going on, and I think a lot of people suspect
that you have probably in the past thought that some
of your mail was stolen, maybe not by the postal service,
but by somebody. But I think a lot of these
guys who are running around are taking mail home with them.
Speaker 11 (25:29):
This morning, a mail carrier is accused of living a
life of luxury off stolen mail. Prosecutors in Los Angeles
say thirty one year old Mary and Magdammitt started stealing
mail in twenty twenty two, taking US Treasury checks and
more than one hundred and thirty credit and debit cards,
allegedly activating the stolen cards to buy luxury items and
(25:50):
book trips to Turks and Caicos and Aruba.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
And this is I believe a woman who used to
work for the Postal Service the USBs.
Speaker 11 (25:58):
Police say shee was caught after post these photos posing
with cash on Instagram.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
What a moron she posted on Instagram the cash that
she was stealing from people.
Speaker 11 (26:09):
Police say she was caught after posting these photos posing
with cash on Instagram.
Speaker 8 (26:14):
Wow, you like to steal mail? You like to steal mail? Yeah,

Speaker 11 (26:18):
Huh maile. Theft a nationwide problem. Vigilantes were recently seen
tackling another suspected male thief in La now under arrest.
Speaker 8 (26:27):
You like to steal mail, You like to steal mail.
Speaker 11 (26:29):
One growing concern an increase in checks stolen from mail
deposited in outdoor mailboxes. Police say four men arrested near
Philadelphia were carrying checks stolen from the mail. The amounts
and the names changed.
Speaker 10 (26:42):
It was never an issue growing up as a kid, Like,
never even thought about it.
Speaker 8 (26:47):
It's interesting. It's a little scary.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
Yeah, it is scary. I wonder if that's this is
somebody's fantasy, Like this guy's.
Speaker 8 (26:53):
Yelling, you like to steal mail, you know?
Speaker 2 (26:55):

Speaker 8 (26:58):

Speaker 11 (27:03):
Theft a wide problem vigilantes.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
I bet that is. You know somebody's got that. People
are they got it. They got a lot going on.
Speaker 11 (27:11):
One growing concern an increase in checks stolen from mail
deposited in outdoor mailboxes. Police say four men arrested near
Philadelphia were carrying checks stolen from the mail. The amounts
and the names change.
Speaker 8 (27:24):
It was never an issue growing up as a kid.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Yeah, now it is. Everybody's doing it.
Speaker 11 (27:28):
Authorities now urging people to hand deliver their mail inside
the post office to guard against crime.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
Oh I see, they're stealing it out of the blue
boxes outside. Oh no, I just put a bunch of
mail in a blue box last night. Now I gotta
go to the post office.
Speaker 11 (27:45):
Authorities now urging people to hand deliver their mail inside
the post office to guard against crime.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
Oh my god, they're stealing right out of the blue boxes.
Speaker 11 (27:55):
But internal mail theft inside the postal service it is worse,
even worse, surged after the pandemic.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Yeah, people in post office are going home with some
checks and credit cards.
Speaker 11 (28:06):
With cases up forty seven percent. Wow, with cases up
forty seven percent. One official recently quoted saying criminal organizations
are recruiting people to get a job in the Postal
Service so they can rob mail and drain bank accounts.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
Great. Another thing we have to ever worry about is
the guy who's delivering mail is also the ice stealing it.
Speaker 11 (28:28):
A government report last year found the Postal Service not
doing enough to prevent theft, citing a shortage of supervisors,
a lack of training, and unanswered questions about the monitoring
of surveillance cameras. The good news, robberies of mail carriers
are down as the Post Office deployees more high security
collection boxes nationwide. And as for the mail carrier who
(28:50):
posted on Instagram, she pleaded guilty to a bank fraud
charge and faces up to thirty years in prison.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
There you go, all right, So it is a big
no no. Thirty years in prison is a lot. If
you live in Huntington Beach, you have they have another
tool to keep you safe, and these are drones. So
as soon as a call comes into Huntingdon Beach to
nine to one one and the cops are called immediately.
They're going to send out a drone. They have three
different stations that the drones operate out of out of
(29:18):
Huntington Beach, and they can get a drone over your
house and start investigating within two minutes. So it's another
great tool that they have to try to bring crime
down that area. I think a lot of cities will
probably follow suit, but there are going to be some
privacy concerns. You know, there's always some guy that says, no,
we can't do that. But I think it's a lot
(29:39):
of the majority, the vast majority of the people live
in Huntington Beach will prove this.
Speaker 5 (29:44):
To explain how this new drone program will improve response times,
let's show you how they tell you how the current
drone program works.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
The current drone program is chip yost over KTLI.
Speaker 5 (29:55):
The current drone program involves a police officer driving around
in their patrol car. They'll have a drone in their trunk.
If they get to a scene where a drone might
be useful, they'll get in the trunk, get the drone out,
get it launched, and put it up in the air.
This new program, drone's first responder will work differently and
get the drone on scene much quicker. Here's how I
look at this video. The drones will be located at
(30:17):
strategic locations on rooftops around the city. As soon as
an emergency call comes in, the drone will be launched remotely.
It won't need an officer with it. The pilot will
be back at a control center. The drone will launch
and go straight to the scene, often beating any officers
who are driving there to the scene, and then giving
those officers who are on their way real time information
(30:39):
about what's happening. The police department here in Huntington Beach
believes that that will improve response times from about five
minutes when officers are just driving to a scene to
about two minutes.
Speaker 2 (30:50):
Oh that's great. That is a huge difference. Hey, those
three minutes could be life.
Speaker 5 (30:54):
And death because the drone can get there quicker, get
eyes on the scene, and like I said, give them
important information. But what about privacy, Well, the department says
it has taken privacy concerns into consideration with some of
its policies.
Speaker 6 (31:09):
When we're flying the drone responding to calls We're only
going to record when we're seeing something of evidentiary value.
If there's no evidentiary value, we're not going to record it.
If there is evidentary value, obviously, we're going to start
with our standard digital evidence repository and it'll be afforded
to the District Attorney's office. We have our departmental policy
in place. It says we are not going to be
proactive with this. We are not going to be surveilling.
(31:31):
This is reaction to calls to help the officers who
are en route two calls.
Speaker 5 (31:35):
This new drone program will go into effect in about
two weeks. They'll have the drones strategically placed on a
three different rooftops in this city. And they say it'll
cost about five hundred thousand dollars that includes the equipment,
and that'll be paid.
Speaker 8 (31:49):
Off over about a five year period.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
For now reporting here in Huntington Beach.
Speaker 5 (31:53):
I'm chippy host KTLA five.
Speaker 2 (31:56):
That is a very safe city, Huntington Beach, and they
got a great relationship with the cops and now they
have another tool to catch the bad guys. All right,
