I want to note that there is a bit of a Hero story that is missing from this version of the news…Read More event. My brother - a Cerritos resident, father of three, Little League coach, Soccer coach, and Cub Scout leader - noticed the smoke coming from the house which was in his neighborhood. He is known to be a quick thinker and a good Samaratin so he took his fire extinguisher, drove to the house which was clearly dealing with a growing fire, and put the fire out with his extinguisher! He also escorted the family (who's kitchen was burning) safely across the street so that they would be out of harm's way in case the fire started up again. All of this happened before the firefighters arrived! Needless to say my nieces and nephews were very proud of their dad - Jesse Mendoza Jr. - for acting as a hero. It should be noted, however, that he only intervened because he saw that it was safe for him to do so. In fact, his daughter Caroline refers to him as "the safety guy." It's nice to know that neighbors are watching out for one another which is why I wanted to add this missing piece back into the story. Thanks!

From 6 to 8 is a spike? If so, it would not look very impressive on a trending graph over even a…Read More short period of time. Looks more like the typical ebb and flow of this unfortunate happening.
Sensational headline though.
