It's KFI Am sixty and you're listening to the Conway
Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. All right, Santa
Anita has opened as well, so if you want to
get out there and enjoy it, there's races all weekend.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
We're gonna going up. We got city Hall.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
The guy that plowed his car in the city Hall,
he's on the phone right now with the negotiators. So
that's a big deal. The negotiators are talking to the
guy right now. I don't know how they got his number,
or maybe he called them, I don't know, but somebody
the cops are talking to the guy who plowed his
car into city Hall. The Chevron fire refinery at the
(00:39):
fire at the refinery is another big story we're covering.
We're gonna have some more information on that.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
I P.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Diddy four years in state prison, four years and this
end today as well. Hamas has agreed to release all
the Israeli hostages. That's a big story, all of them.
So let me just write a note down here. All
the hostages are going to be released by Hamas. That
(01:09):
could be the beginning of peace in that area. So
that's a major, major story. And we're covering all of them,
and then we got the air show going on this weekend.
That's a big story too. It's in Huntington Beach, so
we got lots going on, lots going on. The local
stories here are the guy that plowed his car into
(01:30):
city Hall, the refinery at Chevron, and those are the
two big stories we're covering. And then pe Ditty's sort
of a local story. Even though he was being prosecuted
in New York, a lot of that mischief happened in
at Los Angeles. So we got those three big stories,
and hamas the international story. We're going to cover all
(01:51):
of those. Let's go to Chevron El Segundo. The residents
knew immediately last night what was going on. They're very
familiar with that.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
If you talk to a longtime residents here in this neighborhood,
when they heard it and they felt it, they tell
us they knew what it was.
Speaker 5 (02:08):
I was in my living room and all of a
sudden boom.
Speaker 6 (02:13):
This is what Liz Spear and your neighbors saw and
heard last night around nine point thirty, coming from the
Chevron refinery down the street from there, Elsa Gundo neighborhood.
The explosion and fireball lit up the evening sky. Liz
describes what those few seconds during and after the explosion
felt like.
Speaker 5 (02:32):
I thought the front corner of near the front door
that faces the refinery was kind of shaking.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
I thought about that, you have a front door that
faces the refinery. Every time somebody comes over, it's like, hey,
park near the refinery? What how close are you about?
Twenty feet?
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Does that bother you? Oh, we don't talk about it much.
Speaker 5 (02:53):
Corner of near the front door that faces the refinery
was kind of shaking.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
I thought earthquake. Front door facing the refined, but it.
Speaker 5 (03:00):
Seemed weird, so I was kind of pausing to get
my bearings to see if more rolling or shaking happened.
And then my two windows on the side of the
house facing the refinery happened.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
More facing refinery. Everything faces the refinery. With this woman?
Does she live in the middle of the refinery? Is
it like the movie Big?
Speaker 7 (03:19):
No?
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Not Big?
Speaker 1 (03:20):
What was it up the movie up? Where there's building,
you know, the building all around this guy's house. Is
she like the one that didn't sell and her houses
in the middle of the refinery, Her front door face
of the refinery, and the windows on the side face
the refinery. So she's got at least two exposures to
the refinery.
Speaker 5 (03:37):
Two windows on the side of the house facing the refinery.
I had blackout blinds down lit up a reinery.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
Justin Brent also lives down the street from the refinery.
He told us he and his wife were watching TV
last night when they heard the explosion and felt it.
Speaker 8 (03:53):
The house shook, actually came outside it and it was.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
I wonder, when when is the last.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
That goes off there at the refinery enough where you
finally say, f it, let's get out.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Is it two more? Eight more? I don't know.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
I think for the first one with me and my
wife would be like, you know what, let's look.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
At uh San Diego. Maybe, I don't know.
Speaker 9 (04:18):
Parker Arizona, Hey, that's your opportunity to come out to
the same Redina man.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
In the Ilant Empire, you don't hear this going on
in the Land Empire, nothing like this.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
It was warm.
Speaker 8 (04:27):
You could feel the heat from the actual fire here
on the intersection.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
What it was warm.
Speaker 8 (04:34):
You could feel the heat from the actual fire here
on the intersection.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
He lives close enough to feel the heat of the
fire nope, in the refinery, and how do you sleep
at night?
Speaker 2 (04:45):
How do you go to bed?
Speaker 1 (04:47):
And doesn't everything in your house smell like oil or gas?
Will you just lose your sense of smell after a while?
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Woof.
Speaker 4 (04:53):
There have been no reports of any damage to property
away from the refinery. They also going to mayor says
there were no orders sent out to residents to shelter
in place or to evacuate.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
That's, by the way, that's payday for the El Segundo mayor.
That's when he makes his big bucks when he has
to come out and tell everybody things. They're okay, they're
going to be fine. You know, back in your house,
we got this under control. That's when he knows he's
earning every dime that they pay him that year.
Speaker 10 (05:23):
We did send updates by a NIXEL to let people
know what was happening, and we sent updates especially at
air quality, and again this morning with the school district
to let them know like, hey, we've got an all
clear and school will proceed and the roads will be open.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
And the one thing that may are emphasized what things
were back to normal this morning and again Finery Live
and El Sagundo I'm said Garcia. ABC seven Eye Witnessed News.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
All right, the workers describe what happened out there last
night as we all watched it on TV.
Speaker 11 (05:50):
The explosion at the Chevron refinery broke out just after
nine pm here in El Segundra. It sent huge flames
shooting into the air. The fire could be seen from
across the South Bay. There were no mandatory evacuations, but
there was a shelter in place order for Manhattan Beach
that has since been lifted. Elsa Gundo fire and fire
crews from the refinery responded. We spoke exclusively with the
(06:13):
person who was working on site. Listen to their reaction.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Did I know I hear like a big like it
was like a like like this guy woosh there it
is like what did I know? I hear like a
big What was it? Yeah? It was not a song?
Booh there it is. It's not about the refinery. Woosh there.
It is Share.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
It is.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Who sings that song? You know you know that I'm
talking about, right, Yes? Yeah, yeah, is Share it is.
I'm gonna keep doing the team. Okay, I'm gonna keep
doing this. To Brian long cos sre is.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
What line phone.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
Yeah, I was just gonna do it for like an Yeah.
Speaker 12 (07:08):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
All right, David Vassay is what it's the say, Hey
kid with the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
David Vassay, Hi you Bob.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
I'm doing great. I'm in Philadelphia at the bank as
they pull it out here in Philly. The Dodgers just
finished their workout and getting ready for Game one of
a big titan showdown between the Dodgers and Phillies.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Buddy, I was so happy to watch the Dodgers double
up on the Red the red Legs as they used
to call them, and then double up on them again,
you know, to ass kickings.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
That's what they needed to do. And honestly, Tim, in
that wildcard round that they have now, the Reds backed
into the playoffs and a lot of people felt like
they weren't even good enough to be considered a playoff team.
So the Dodgers handled their business. And this is the
series that everybody has been waiting for for the last
(08:11):
three years, right, whether it's the Dodgers being knocked out
or the Phillies being knocked out. We just haven't had it.
And here it is a best of five nlds and
a lot of people believe that whoever wins this series
is going to win the World Series.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Okay, here's my prediction on the Dodgers Phillies series. Okay,
You've got Otani, who ended the regular season I think
sixteen with a scoreless innings, sixteen and two third scoreless innings,
so he's all rested and ready to go. Then you
have Glass now who was ready to pitch against the
Reds but he didn't pitch, so he's ready to go.
(08:47):
And then you got snell Zilla and if they squeak
one out, you got Yamamoto. There's no way the Phillies
are going to destroy all four of those pitchers.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
This might be a three game suite.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
It could be. And there's a lot of pressure on
the Phillies because this group has been together and knocked
on the door for the last four years. There's a
very good chance if they lose this series, they may
not have another chance to come back together on the
same team. Their catcher JT. Realmudo is a free agent,
their slugger Schwarber's a free agent, and the way that
(09:22):
Dodgers are going to line up their spectacular starting pitching
is have show Hail Tani start Game one, but also
have one of their starters be ready out of the bullpen,
and like you mentioned, Tyler Glass now is going to
pitch and relief tomorrow night after Otani and also be
ready to start Game four. Blake Snell is going to
(09:44):
start Game two, which is going to be on Monday,
and then Game three as the series shifts back to La.
It will be Yamamoto on a week of rest, and
that's vital because Japanese pitchers are used to a week
of rest and the Dodgers have done that all year
for him. So he's going to have a week of
(10:04):
rest coming off that great pitch game last night.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Okay, So even if they do get you know, they sneak,
you know, a game out, you still got yam Mamoto.
And if it wasn't for Paul is it named Paul Skeens.
If it wasn't for Paul Skeins, he would have won
the Golden he would have won the Cy.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Young without a doubt. And we're gonna see another one
of those cy Young candidate dates tomorrow night facing the
Dodgers and Christopher Sanchez. But I feel like it's been
a lot of East Coast bias, people over hyping this
guy right, And I have no doubt the Dodgers are
going to score some runs off this guy. And if
(10:45):
the Dodgers score early and give Otani an early lead,
it's going to be a lot of anxious fans here
in Philadelphia. And not to mention, this is going to
help the Dodgers being on the road with starting because
he is going to hit before he pitches the games.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
That's great. I didn't even think about that. That's awesome.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
So he could give himself a one nothing lead if
the Homers to start the games, that's awesome.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Hey what did what did ta Oscar after he blew
it in right field the other night?
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Was he upset about that?
Speaker 3 (11:23):
Yeah? You know what. I didn't even have to bring
it up. He brought it up to me on the
field after the game was over, and he felt worse
than anybody, but wanted to redeem himself and he did.
He drove it two runs. So if you're a hockey
guy plus minus, he was maybe a plus two or three.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
You know, if I was Yamamoto, I would choke the
team because they never support this guy.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
Well they they did in that game and they were
able to get.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
In that's right, but they don't normally.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
He could have finished that seventh inning if ta Oscar makes.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
That cat, absolutely, yeah, one hundred percent.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
So what is the You know, first of all, I
think we owe Philadelphia, you know, a gut punch for
what they did to us in football last year with
the Eagles and also this year. You know they Rams
should have won that game as well. But how is
the atmosphere in Philadelphia? Is everyone into it? Everyone crazy?
Speaker 3 (12:23):
I'll just put it to you this way, Tim. The
Phillies have had five days off because they had a
first round by good, so to stay sharp, they held
a practice game two nights ago here in Philadelphia. Thirty
one thousand fans showed up for an inner squad scrimmage.
So yes, this city is ready to explode. And everybody
(12:45):
walking around the city had a Phillies T shirt on
or an Eagles hat on. So it's a big Philly
sports weekend. We got the NLDS starting tomorrow night, the
Eagles are at home hosting the Denver Broncos, and then
Monday night, game two of the LDS so sports here
in Philly.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
And Phillies, they really do.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
I mean, look, I hate the Philly teams like I
should being a Dodger fan and a Rams fan. But
they really do have very good, supportive lifelong fans there.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
Oh it's uh this city, Boston, New York, Chicago special.
It's different special out here. Chicago. They're kind of losing
fan base out there. Tim, They're not really as great. Yeah,
they have that loser's mentality in Chicago.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
All right.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Hey, when you travel with the Dodgers and you go
back east, do they still charter?
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Do they still have two planes?
Speaker 3 (13:41):
They do? The players were on their own plane, and
staff and family were on my plane. And I'm at
a different hotel than the players as well.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
I can hear it in your voice. You're thrilled about it.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
I got here, Tim, that's all that matters.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
There's no respect at home.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
You know.
Speaker 13 (14:05):
That's great.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
It's all good. It's all good. The players need to focus.
It's what they did last year and they won the
World Series, so they're doubled down. They're going to double
down on that travel plan.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Buddy, I think it should be I think you should
treat it as the huge compliment. It is when the
Dodgers win either the wild Card or their division that
they always find you and douse you with champagne aggressively.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
I think that's a compliment.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
Thank you. I appreciated it. Some of the guys were
telling me that as well, like they they want they
want me to be part of the celebration. That Blake
trin in spraying maybe was a little bit too much
over the top. I felt like he was taking out
the bullpen frustrations out on me right there. But I'll
handle it and keep moving forward.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Did Blake Trindon is the guy that put that embroidered
Charlie Kirk on his hat? Did they make him take
that off?
Speaker 3 (15:02):
I think he chose to. I just I don't. Yeah,
he chose to write that on his hat in San
Francisco a few weeks ago. But honestly, I don't think
anybody really really wants politics to bleed into their game.
Look that. I just don't think that's what they.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Wanted to do exactly.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
Here's something for you. Conway T. K Hernandez, after that
hurricane hit Puerto Rico back in twenty seventeen, wrote Praying
for Puerto Rico. And that was during the National League
Championship Series, right, Major League Baseball find him for just
writing on training for my home. Yeah, he got fined
(15:46):
for writing that on his hat.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
Oh that's horrible. I mean, what a great guy. I
love that Key khurdand is. You know, he could have
played for another team and probably made some more money,
but he's he you know, he has a family. He
wanted to keep his kids hit here and his wife
here and everything. I really respect that move.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
Now. He's a great guy and a great October player.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Yeah, he's a great October player, buddy. This is going
to be very exciting to watch Philadelphia and the Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
It's going to be the premier series.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
It is. This is the series that many people believe
will determine who goes on to win the World Series.
Tim and the Dodgers owe the Phillies some paidback because
the Phillies have been the Dodgers in each of the
last three playoffs series they have faced each other, going
back to nineteen eighty three, two thousand and eight, and
two thousand and nine.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Let me ask you a quick question. I know you
got to go.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Padres get a really poor call on what should have
been a ball and a walk at the end of
in the ninth inning of the Cubs game and they
got eliminated. Did you feel bad for the Padres or
did you feel happy when you saw that.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
I did not have emotions of happiness, and I didn't
feel bad for them. I just a lot of people
were doubting the Padres this year that they could make
a deep run, and it just kind of played out
that way. I actually feel like it might be a
Dodger's Cubs and LCS.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
Oh great, okay, that would be terrific.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
I on the Cubs.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Oh, oh that's right. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's great. Right,
that's gonna be That could be a great series as well.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Buddy.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
I've never felt really confident about the Dodgers, you know,
because I'm not confident about any sports team. I'm always
very nervous. But I don't see how Philadelphia is going
to beat this Dodger team.
Speaker 3 (17:36):
I'm with you. I feel like people in LA don't
realize how great and talented this team is and how
well they're playing right now. You're right, this is this
is one of those teams when we look back on
it in the next ten to twenty years, we're gonna say, like,
those are one of the greatest Dodger teams ever, and
they have a chance to write themselves and separate themselves
(17:59):
from every other Dodger team if they win the World
Series again, right, being coming the only back to back
champions in Dodger history.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
And I have a feeling that the Dodger owners, like
they've been doing consistently over the last you know, ten years,
are going to go out and look for even more
talent during the offseason like they did last year.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
They're not stopping Tim that's for sure. The Dodgers owner
just bought the Lakers, so they have the resources. The
only thing that could stop them is a new collective
bargaining agreement, but that's a year plus away.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
Right, That's the only way they get to be stopped
is to have handcuffs put on them. Yeah, buddy, I
be better. That's right, That's exactly right. I really appreciate
you coming on safe Travels and and and again, I
love how big a part you are. I've seen a
lot of reporters inside the locker room for Lakers, Kings, Dodgers, Rams,
(18:56):
and I don't see anybody that has the affection show
towards you, like towards a reporter like they do you nobody.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
Thank you, Tim, I really appreciate it. I'm really lucky
that they've included me as much as they have. And
it's part of the working relationship, the ecosystem that needs
to be had so we can share their personalities with everybody.
That's always my goal is to show and humanize these guys.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
Yeah, exactly right, buddy. I love your connection with the Dodgers.
I'm glad you are. You call us and you never
say no, and you always share it with us. I
really appreciate man.
Speaker 3 (19:32):
Ding Don Conway, you to you all right.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Thanks Bob.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
All right?
Speaker 1 (19:35):
There he goes, David vas say with the Los Angeles
Dodgers in Philadelphia. What a job that guy has. He
grew up as the biggest Dodger fan in the world,
ten times bigger than I ever was. And he travels
with the Dodgers. Well maybe not on the same plane
when they go to the playoffs, but he travels with
the Dodgers.
Speaker 13 (19:53):
He travels, he's in the air at the same time
they are.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Ye, he's with all the babies and the wives. He's
with the baby and the wives.
Speaker 13 (20:01):
Can you hold can you hold my child?
Speaker 1 (20:04):
That's right, that's what's going on with them. What a guy,
What a life that guy's got going on there?
Speaker 6 (20:09):
It is.
Speaker 12 (20:12):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on Demayo from KFI
Am sixty dig Dong with you A.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
We're gonna get to all the big tour stories in
the news. We've got the lunatic at City Hall. We're
gonna have an update with Chris Christi. We also have
the Chevron fire that happened last night. We have another
update on that. And then we have p Diddy four
years in state prison, and Hamas has decided to release
(20:41):
all of the Israeli hostages. That could be the very
beginning of peace in the Middle East, or at least
in that area.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
I have hope. I have hope.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
I know there's been a lot of fighting in that
area for quite some time, but I think that's the
first step to getting that resolve and rebuild that part
of the world. And then on the not so breaking news,
the Dodgers are playing this weekend Saturday and Monday, and
the air show is today, Tomorrow and Sunday in Huntington Beach.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
So it's a big deal going on.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
And my buddy Ted Ziggenbusch, who's the world premiere handicapper
and all of horse racing, just nailed the super high
five in the last race. If you boxed the six nine, five,
eight four in the last race today at Sant Nita,
it would cost you one hundred and twenty dollars to
do them, and you would have gotten back seven eight
hundred and thirteen dollars. Now, if you just did the
(21:41):
super effect that they'll cost you twelve dollars and you
would have gotten back two hundred and fifty nine dollars.
If you did the trifector, you would cost you twenty
four dollars and you would had nine hundred.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
And fifty eight dollars.
Speaker 13 (21:51):
What would you have done?
Speaker 1 (21:52):
I would have done probably two of those three. I
wouldn't have done the super high five. It's one hundred
and twenty bucks and I don't have that kind of money.
My wife would care.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
Is that a big stack for me?
Speaker 1 (22:02):
Yeah, one hundred and twenty As you say, one hundred
and twenty big ones. Yeah, that's a lot.
Speaker 13 (22:07):
Is a lot.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
You're the only person I know in the world that
refers to a dollar as a big one.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Because I value a dollar. Really, did your dad Your
dad was a big horse guy. Yeah. Did he refer
to the dollar as a big one?
Speaker 1 (22:21):
No? No, because it's not that's my thing. That's your thing, Okay.
Ted Ziggenbosch is the best handicapper I know. He constantly
is picking horses that are twenty to one, thirty to one,
that are finishing first. I love horse racing and I
always follow that man's tips.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
That guy's the best.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
You want to you can join his his email list
if you want. It's free, and you could have made
seventy eight hundred dollars today if you just followed his picks.
But you didn't, so just email him just to say,
I want to be on your on your list. I
want to be on your your handicap list. It's Ted
(23:02):
Ziggy at aol dot com. It's free. He doesn't charge
anybody a dime. The nicest band in the world. He
used to work here on Coast one O three point five.
He did love songs and he truly is one of
the nicest men I've ever met my life period. Ted

Ted Ziggy at aol dot com say hey, please put
(23:24):

couple bucks that.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
Oh you worked with him Krozer, didn't you? You work
with Ted with zig and Bush, didn't you?
Speaker 13 (23:33):
I did.
Speaker 9 (23:33):
I was when I started. I started at Coast and
I was their only board of because you know, they
just needed it for like public affairs programs on the
weekends and when we did remotes, and we used to
do got a Disney remote almost every month where they
where they would do like love songs, and Karen Sharp
would be out there and Ted zigg and Bush.
Speaker 13 (23:53):
Would be out there.
Speaker 9 (23:53):
So I'd be back at the studio running the love
songs and he and I would always coordinate.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
I've never seen him blow up at anybody, No, not one.
Speaker 13 (24:01):
His voice matches his temperament.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
Yeah, nice, sweet everybody, the sweetest man in the world.
Speaker 13 (24:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
And and the guy that really the only guy in
my opinion, some women do it really well, but the
only guy that can pull off doing love songs.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
That's a real tight rope.
Speaker 13 (24:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (24:16):
And he did it definitely like he was, Yeah, he was.
He was so synonymous with it in my head.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
Yeah, exactly. Yeah, always I loved it.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
Did you ever bang on him to do a love song,
a dedication while you're on a date all the time.
When I first got out here, I was like, I think,
oh that's great.
Speaker 9 (24:38):
Hey, Ted, Hey Karen did you play this song at
right around this time? Dedicated to Bonnie from Krozier.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
This one goes out to Oh that's so great, so
cheesy and so great. God, buddy. Look, we've got to
all use our tools. It was a I want not
You got to use every tool in your tool chest.
Speaker 13 (25:04):
No guy would turn that opportunity. Now you never had it.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
Look I have Ted record love song dedications for me nowadays,
you know. And I just saw I recorded this last
night off the radio.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
Here it is. Here's to you, baby.
Speaker 13 (25:19):
Jam. This one goes out to you. Here's a little
Whitney Houston saving all my love.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
I love the news. That's great.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
Here's another one for you agenda geez. I don't know,
but there's a love song or not. That's the mash
theme song. Suicide is Paine? What the hell's going on
with you?
Speaker 2 (25:38):
All right?
Speaker 1 (25:39):
Let's do a city hall here. Amy Powell at city Hall.
She always extends her lockout. Amy Powell at city Hall.
We dont time, Okay, we'll come back to it. Amy
Powell at City Hall, Chris Christy live over City Hall.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
It's still going on.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
And guy plowed his car into city Hall and now
we've evacuated, not we, but lap and La County Sheriff
has evacuated the entire area.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
What's going on with this guy. We'll come back a
lot more information for you.
Speaker 12 (26:07):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
Guy at city Hall.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
Inside of his car, looks like he busted his radiator
and his radiator fluid is everywhere that's going to be.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
That's going to need to be cleaned up there. I'm
sure the city will be all over that.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
But let's find out from Amy Powell on ABC News
what's going on down there at City Hall with his
chap in the car and making everybody's life a little miserable.
Speaker 14 (26:37):
Downtown parallel on Spring Street, Temple is behind us, and
then further down the street at City Hall. Police wanted
us to stay clear of the area. That's why we've
come down a little further away from city Hall. But
it is on this side of City Hall that the
suspect has driven his car onto the steps, and so
people are police are taking a lot of precautionious because
they really don't know exactly what's going on here.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
As you can see you they're not people, okay, the car.
Speaker 15 (27:05):
Stepping out of the vehicle with his hands up in
the air.
Speaker 11 (27:08):
Uh.
Speaker 15 (27:08):
They have been watching him very closely with the drone
overhead into the windshield. And I can't tell you whether
or not he is complying with specific commands or instructions,
or whether he is walking towards the l A p D.
They have both sides of Spring sheet Spring Street cordoned off.
Here he is walking towards officers. I just don't know
(27:31):
whether they have asked him to do that, asked him to.
Speaker 12 (27:33):
Do that or not.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
I don't I suspect not.
Speaker 15 (27:36):
But they have been communicating with him and kind of
making arrangements with him to give himself up, like he
is showing his hands as he walks down Spring Street
now directly south towards L A p D at the
end of the block. Here again, this all started about
an hour into the front steps of City Hall. We
(27:56):
saw seven liquid coming from underneath the vehicle, and there
was some suspicion at the time that he may have
had ill intentions. Again, they are dealing with somebody who
they believe is mentally unstable. So again, he has now
exited the vehicle, walking in the direction of police along
Spring Street.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
Here we will.
Speaker 15 (28:14):
Watch as they attempt to take him into custody here
in the next couple of minutes.
Speaker 7 (28:18):
Guys, back to you, Yeah, this standoff again at four
seven pm when he drove on to the steps of
City Hall, jumped the curb, refused to get out of
the vehicle. That prompted the evacuation of La City Hall.
Among the people evacuated, of course, the Mayor of Los Angeles,
Karen Bass, who issued a statement later saying that she
is keeping an eye on the situation and this thanking
(28:40):
first responders for their the way they are handling it.
The man doing his best at this point to comply
with what the officers are saying.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
Walking backwards.
Speaker 7 (28:49):
That is something that is a standard thing that police
do when they are affecting what amounts to a for
arrest and bring him into custody gently. As you see,
there've been in contact with this person throughout this thing
via via cell.
Speaker 16 (29:02):
Phone actually a lot, and it appeared from Air seven's
picture that we could see, you know, his hands kind
of moving around as he presumably was on the phone
with negotiators and you know, a successful negotiation here that
they were able to get him out of the vehicle.
It looks like he's being taken into custody again peacefully
and gingerly is they're kind of talking with him to
you know, explain what's going to happen from here after
(29:24):
this really scary incident. I mean, with the way the
world is right now, this is certainly not something you
want to see at city hall with signs in a window.
And then I believe there was something also in the
back seat of that vehicle that was kind of alarming
to authorities because it was unclear exactly what it was.
Speaker 7 (29:39):
We'll have to see what the charges end up being.
If if it's simply if whatever was in the back
seat turns out to not be something threatening, and if
no threats were issued, this could be actually a fairly
minor incident. I would think, right just just driving up
on the onto the sidewalk and then not getting out
is not a felony. But we'll see what is involved here, sure,
(30:02):
and we'll try to have more updates for you in
later editions of Eyewitness News.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
In the meantime, all right, that is over.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
Now they got to approach the car, probably with one
of those bearcats or a heavily armed car, to make
sure there's no bomb in that car.
Speaker 16 (30:16):
Man.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
I don't know about you, Krozier, but every time I
see one of these guys get out of the car
and they walk towards the cops and they're surrounded by cops,
I always think of an explosive vest.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
I always do.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
I always think, oh Christ, I hope this guy doesn't
have explosive on him and we see that. I always
think about it, dark MoU Yeah. I just think that
people are getting so odd. They're you know, Doug Steckley
used to say, and man, is this right nowadays more
than it was even thirty years ago. The most dangerous
people in this world are people with nothing to lose.
(30:53):
And there are a lot of people in LA with
nothing to lose. Lot of people are broke, a lot
of people don't have family, maybe not have a lot
of friends.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
They live alone and they're at their wits end.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
They can't afford anything, there's no income, they're tired of
living the way they live and they just lose it,
you know, mentally, they just don't they can't keep it together.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
I'll be there at some point in my life on
my way, yeah, you know, once my wife and.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Daughter figured out that I'm an idiot, I'll be living
in an apartment across from Sandy to Low all my
dough there, and then I'll be at city Hall, probably
about eight years. But yeah, the new guys here will
be talking about me at city Hall, you know, Monks
and who else. Who's the guy at Andy on weekends,
(31:50):
you know, talking about it. Looks like he used to
work here at KFI. One of those cats that Bellio
used to work with. Would you make a oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
I'll include you guys in the sign.
Speaker 13 (32:06):
I don't want to hurt anybody.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
I don't want to hurt anybody, that's right, especially Bellium.
She's the greatest.
Speaker 2 (32:12):
All right.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
So that's over. So now we're that has been solved.
Now we're down to four major stories. The Chevron Fire,
P Diddy, the Hamas Israeli hostages being released, and the
Dodgers is another big story. Plus the air show is
going on as well. But the big stories were City Hall,
(32:34):
Shove run fire, P Diddy and hamas releasing the hostages,
and this is a good Friday for news. The City
Hall thing ended well. Nobody got killed on the Chevron fire,
even though gas prices might go up. P Diddy didn't
get the fourteen years that was possible. And also the
(32:56):
hostages will be released. So I think this is a big,
a good Friday for a lot of people. Good Friday.
I think we'll remember this October third, twenty twenty five
as the day the world turned around.
Speaker 2 (33:11):
What's that?
Speaker 13 (33:11):
The beginning of the beginning or the beginning of the end.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
No, the beginning of a very peaceful, beautiful new life
in the world.
Speaker 2 (33:19):
