The 38th Annual Law Enforcement Memorial Ceremony was held this week at the Regional Law Enforcement Memorial in the Waterfront Park.
Every year, the San Diego County Law Enforcement Memorial Ceremony pays respect to fallen deputies, officers and agents who gave their life in the line of duty in San Diego County.
The San Diego County Sheriff’s Department and law enforcement agencies from across the region honored the sacrifice made by these men and women with a 21-gun salute.
SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) — Video from a Mission Valley homeowner captured a man rummaging through his dresser drawers during an open house his realtor was hosting on July 7.
Realtor Lina Saba recalls seeing the man enter the home and described him initially as odd.
“He was odd, he didn’t want to sign in.. that’s not unusual,” Saba said. “Where I thought something was weird is when he didn’t want to take a flyer.”
Saba says the man visited the third floor of the property located in the Civita Complex of Mission Valley where cameras positioned in the room by the homeowner captured the man going through his personal items and drawers.
The homeowner has reported the incident to San Diego police and shared the video with authorities as well. San Diego police says they are in the process of investigating the case and assigning it to an officer to look into what happened.
“I posted the video on my Instagram page and it went viral,” Saba said. “Another agent said he had been known to go to open houses and there are Facebook pages that warned people about this person. So I’m surprised he’s not been identified at this point.”
Spencer Lugash, the president of the San Diego Association of Realtors, says activity and behavior like this is not new to the industry. Incidents like this have been plaguing the industry for years.
“Unfortunately it happens more than general public realizes,” Lugash said. “I don’t want to create panic among homeowners, this is a little bit a part of life.”
While not uncommon, Lugash definitely advises homeowners to lock up any valuables and to install cameras for extra monitoring.
“They may be looking for jewelry, or money – hide away bank statements … personal information,” Lugash said. “Medication of course, people going through cabinets looking for next fix.”
Lugash maintains hosting an open house is still the best way to get maximum exposure. He says realtors take classes and participate in trainings on how to keep themselves safe during open houses as well.
“It’s about taking precautionary steps,” he added. “I’m not surprised to hear about this situation, but it isn’t all of a sudden something more than it’s ever been.”
As hype builds for the historic clash between the All Blacks and Fiji at Snapdragon Stadium in San Diego this weekend, let’s take a journey down memory lane to relive the top 10 sporting moments that have shaped the city’s rich history.
From iconic victories to unforgettable performances, these moments have laid the foundation for what promises to be a landmark moment for rugby in USA.
1: Tony Gwynn’s 3,000th Hit: San Diego Padres legend Tony Gwynn etched his name into baseball history on August 6, 1999, when he became the 22nd player in MLB history to reach the 3,000-hit milestone. Gwynn’s milestone hit, a single to right-centre field off Montreal Expos pitcher Dan Smith, solidified his status as one of the greatest hitters of all time.
2: Chargers’ Super Bowl Run: In 1995, the San Diego Chargers embarked on an improbable journey to Super Bowl XXIX. Led by Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Fouts and dynamic running back LaDainian Tomlinson, the Chargers captured the hearts of the city as they advanced to the franchise’s only Super Bowl appearance, ultimately falling to the San Francisco 49ers.
3: Women’s World Cup Soccer: San Diego played a pivotal role in the success of the 1999 FIFA Women’s World Cup, hosting several matches, including the quarterfinal clash between Brazil and Nigeria. The tournament showcased the growing popularity of women’s soccer and left a lasting legacy in the city.
4: Tony Hawk’s 900: Skateboarding icon Tony Hawk achieved the impossible on June 27, 1999, at the X Games held in San Diego. In front of a raucous crowd at the San Diego Sports Arena, Hawk landed the first-ever 900—a trick involving two and a half mid-air spins—solidifying his status as a pioneer in the sport.
5: Breitbard Hall of Fame: Established in 1953, the Breitbard Hall of Fame honors San Diego’s finest athletes and sports figures. Inductees include baseball legend Ted Williams, surfing icon Rob Machado, and Chargers great Junior Seau, among others, showcasing the city’s rich sports heritage.
6: Petco Park Opening: The opening of Petco Park in 2004 marked a new era for baseball in San Diego. The state-of-the-art stadium, nestled in the heart of downtown, became the home of the Padres and a beloved gathering place for sports fans across the city.
7: Women’s Tennis Classic: San Diego has been a regular stop on the WTA Tour, hosting the Women’s Tennis Classic for over three decades. The tournament has seen some of the biggest names in women’s tennis grace its courts, including Serena Williams, Martina Navratilova, and Steffi Graf.
8: Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon: The annual Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon, which debuted in San Diego in 1998, has become a staple event in the city’s sporting calendar. Thousands of runners from around the world descend upon San Diego each year to participate in the marathon, half marathon, and 5K races, showcasing the city’s vibrant running community.

10: All Blacks vs. Fiji Rugby Union Test Match: And now, the stage is set for another historic sporting moment in San Diego—the much-anticipated match between the All Blacks of New Zealand and the formidable Fiji national team. Rugby fans from across the globe will converge on San Diego to witness this epic showdown, adding another chapter to the city’s storied sporting history.
With just over a week to go until this year’s San Diego Comic-Con takes place, excitement is building for an event which, in recent years, has ended up being a pretty low-key affair.
DC Studios will be sitting it out, but Marvel Studios plans to return for the first time since 2022 with not one, but two Hall H panels.
While their main panel will only be an hour long on Saturday night, we’re expecting plenty of huge updates about what the future holds in store for the MCU and the Multiverse Saga. In this feature, we share both our predictions and the announcements and reveals we believe are most likely to blow the roof off Hall H courtesy of Kevin Feige.
To see what could be on the way, you just need to hit that “Next”https://comicbookmovie.com/”View List” button below…
When Marvel Studios first announced the next Avengers movies, they were going to be released in the same year and both had titles. While Avengers: Secret Wars still has its title (as far as we know), Avengers: The Kang Dynasty is now being referred to as Avengers 5.
This suggests the idea is to shift focus away from Kang, a decision reportedly made before Jonathan Majors’ legal troubles when Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania underwhelmed both critically and commercially.
A new Avengers 5 title can offer a better idea of the creative direction of the movie (Avengers vs. X-Men perhaps), as would confirmation of who will write and direct each of these key chapters in the Multiverse Saga.
Marvel Studios has announced plans to hold a second Hall H panel on Thursday called “The Ultimate Deadpool & Wolverine Celebration Of Life.”
While its primary purpose will almost certainly be to hype up Deadpool & Wolverine ahead of its opening weekend, we have to believe Kevin Feige – who will be joined by Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman, and Shawn Levy – will have a surprise in store for us.
Revealing what’s next for the Merc with the Mouth and Logan makes the most sense. Confirming they’ll return in the next Avengers movies – or even a fourth Deadpool – would assure fans there’s lots to look forward to and make this threequel an even bigger must-watch.
Well, what’s actually left at this point? In a shock move, Marvel Studios has released trailers for Captain America: Brave New World and Agatha All Along in recent weeks, sneak peeks we’d typically expect to premiere in Hall H.
It’s far too soon to show anything from The Fantastic Four beyond a costume reveal, leaving only Daredevil: Born Again, Ironheart, Wonder Man, and Thunderbolts* as upcoming projects we could realistically see footage from.
In our opinion, Marvel would be wise to hype up the Man Without Fear’s return and debut a short Thunderbolts* teaser unveiling The Sentry.
This is a tricky one, but it’s about damn time we learn what’s next for Spider-Man in the MCU. Where it gets complicated is with Sony Pictures’ involvement; will they allow Marvel Studios to hype up the movie in Hall H? If the studio has any sense, then yes.
A title reveal, news of a director (and writer, hopefully), along with at least a few confirmed cast members would be enough. Tom Holland, Zendaya, and whoever will play the movie’s villain may suffice, particularly if it’s a big enough reveal to get the fans in Hall H to lose their minds over the prospect of Spider-Man facing them a couple of years from now.
Oh, and a release date is a must at this stage as well.
We know who will star in The Fantastic Four, but outside of Marvel’s First Family, the identity of their characters remains a mystery to us.
Ralph Ineson has confirmed he’s Galactus, but we have only the word of the trades to go on when it comes to Julia Garner’s female Silver Surfer, for example. Then, there’s Paul Walter Hauser, Natasha Lyonne, John Malkovich, and the actors we likely haven’t heard about yet.
While The Fantastic Four cast will probably be shooting in London next weekend, we’d love to see the four leads hit the stage in costume (with Ebon Moss-Bachrach suited up as Ben Grimm rather than The Thing, obviously) and get a full cast/character list along with more concept art.
Maybe a little Doom news to wrap things up too?
Since Bob Iger returned to Disney, the pressure has been taken off Marvel Studios to pump out TV series after TV series. However, that’s created something of a backlog, with Ironheart, for example, wrapping production way back in November 2022!
Daredevil: Born Again is coming next March, but we’d like some clarification on what will join in (and roughly when). It also wouldn’t hurt to show faith in ‘ol Hornhead’s return by confirming plans for the long-rumoured second season, especially after all those creative overhaul reports.
This is also a chance to highlight animated projects like Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, Marvel Zombies, and What If…? season 3, though we’d save all three for D23 next month instead.
While Kang was still at large at the end of Loki, it wouldn’t be too hard to somehow retcon him out of existence and move on from the Ant-Man threequel’s post-credits scene. Heck, you could have a new big bad wipe out that entire coliseum off-screen!
Explanations aside, Marvel Studios needs to tell us who Earth’s Mightiest Heroes will next face. Whether it’s the original X-Men, a new actor who will take over as Kang, or a totally different baddie like Doctor Doom, it’s time we find out where this Multiverse Saga is heading.
Kang can still be redeemed, but following Jonathan Majors’ firing, now might be a good time to reveal who the heck will play the time-traveller.
Whether it’s X-Men, Uncanny X-Men, or something else altogether, Marvel Studios should absolutely close out its Hall H panel by announcing this reboot and potentially even “The Mutant Saga.”
Yes, that’s looking way into the future, but it’s going to leave fans in a state of ecstasy and should confirm Marvel is taking this superhero team seriously. Some concept art, similar to those very early Guardians of the Galaxy designs, also wouldn’t go amiss.
We’d advise against a release date because that didn’t work out too well when Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars were dated at Comic-Con and Marvel Studios doesn’t need any added pressure when it comes to getting this one right.
