La Jolla sewage spill prompts beach closure


A stretch of beach in La Jolla was closed Monday after a sewage-spill contact closure was instituted by San Diego County.

The affected area is along the shore near the intersection of Spindrift Drive and Princess Street, which is south of La Jolla Shores.

“The closure extends 100 feet north and south from the point of the release,” SD County Department of Environmental Health and Quality officials said in a news release sent out on Monday afternoon. “Beachgoers are advised that the ocean water contains sewage and may cause illness.”

The closure will be in place until sampling and field observations confirm it’s safe to re-enter the water.

The suspect, identified as Kenny Dunn, was spotted the following day by San Diego Metropolitan Transit System personnel, who requested SDPD officers come to the scene, police said.

No witnesses were able to positively identify Dunn as the suspect at the time of the initial arrest, police said, and Dunn, also known as Kenny Corzine, was released from custody.

Detectives located Dunn on Tuesday in the 1300 block of East 30th Street in National City, two blocks west of North Second Avenue, where he was arrested in connection with the assault.

“Teran-Pascasio never regained consciousness, and on March 25, 2026, he died as a result of his injuries,” police said in a statement.

The relationship between Dunn and Teran-Pascasio, if any, remains unknown.

Huge brawl breaks out between Atlanta Braves and Los Angeles Angels


Atlanta pitcher Reynaldo López and Los Angeles Angels designated hitter Jorge Soler were ejected after a brawl between the two players on Tuesday night.

Soler charged the mound after López threw a high inside pitch that tipped off Jonah Heim’s glove in the bottom of the fifth inning.

At first López held his hands up as the two glared at each other before both started throwing punches. The benches emptied as players from both teams tried to separate the two. Atlanta manager Walt Weiss was among those who tackled Soler.

López was holding the baseball when he landed a punch on Soler’s batting helmet.
