  • San Diego City Hall Approves $30M Settlement, Affordable Housing Boost

    San Diego City Hall Approves $30M Settlement, Affordable Housing Boost
    2025/12/13
    Good morning, this is San Diego Local Pulse for Saturday, December thirteenth, and we are glad to be with you.

    We start with breaking news out of City Hall. According to The National Desk, San Diego officials approve a thirty million dollar legal settlement for the family of sixteen year old Canoa Wilson, who is shot and killed by police near a downtown trolley station earlier this year. The city calls it a step toward accountability, and it is now one of the largest settlements of its kind in the country. At the same time, the city also signs off on about fifteen million dollars to support projects that will build more than five hundred affordable homes across the city, with sites in Mission Valley and other central neighborhoods, as highlighted by the San Diego Regional Economic Development Corporation.

    As we head out the door this morning, we are dealing with patchy dense fog along the coast from Oceanside down past Mission Beach and into the South Bay. The National Weather Service has a dense fog advisory through late morning, with visibility dropping to a quarter mile at times, especially along Interstate 5 and near the Coronado Bridge. Highs today stay in the upper sixties near the water and low seventies just inland, with a mix of sun and clouds and a repeat of late night and early morning fog through the rest of the weekend.

    On the economy and jobs, downtown office vacancies are hovering around one in four buildings sitting empty, according to recent CBRE data shared by NBC 7. We feel that in our daily lives as more companies rethink commuting into high rises near Broadway and B Street, even as new tech and life science firms expand in places like Sorrento Valley and University City. The Regional EDC also notes a four and a half billion dollar economic impact from construction of the new Terminal 1 at San Diego International, supporting hundreds of construction and airport jobs.

    In real estate, a major Mission Valley apartment project spanning about two hundred thirty acres is now complete, bringing hundreds of new units near Snapdragon Stadium and Friars Road. That adds to our tight rental market, where some reports show rents ticking up again after a brief plateau.

    On crime and safety, CBS 8 reports San Diego police recently seize more than sixty illegal gambling machines, along with cash and drugs, from a business along El Cajon Boulevard in City Heights and from a storage unit in Chula Vista. Officers say the operation is part of a broader push against underground casinos tied to drug activity. At the same time, San Diego Police Department data shared on air show theft and robbery down more than twenty percent since the state’s new retail theft law, Proposition 36, took effect, though concerns about organized shoplifting remain. Extra DUI patrols are underway across major corridors, including the 163 and 805, through New Year’s Day, so we plan our rides before we head out.

    In schools and sports, local high school winter teams are deep into league play, and SDSU and UC San Diego students are wrapping finals and gearing up for bowl season and holiday tournaments. The San Diego Seals are set for their home opener against Rochester this coming weekend at Pechanga Arena, and plenty of families are planning nights out at Balboa Park’s holiday lights and ice skating at Liberty Station.

    For community events, we have celebrations of Our Lady of Guadalupe drawing tens of thousands to the parish in Logan Heights and along Imperial Avenue, with processions, music, and food all weekend. Looking ahead, MiraCosta College’s Technology Career Institute in Carlsbad will host an engineering technician graduation and showcase on December eighteenth, a good stop for anyone curious about skilled trades and tech jobs.

    For a feel good story, the Salvation Army in San Diego says it still needs hundreds more toys to support about four hundred families this Christmas, and we see neighbors stepping up at drives in places like Fashion Valley and Chula Vista, filling those red barrels one small gift at a time. Local nonprofits say every new, unwrapped toy makes a difference.

  • San Diego's Cross-Border Sewage Crisis, Air Purifiers for South Bay, and Affordable Care Act Premiums

    San Diego's Cross-Border Sewage Crisis, Air Purifiers for South Bay, and Affordable Care Act Premiums
    2025/12/12
    Good morning, this is San Diego Local Pulse for Friday, December twelfth.

    We wake up today under clear skies and cool air, with coastal temps climbing into the low 70s and our inland neighborhoods in the mid 70s by afternoon. According to NBC 7 and Time and Date, we stay sunny and dry, with just a few high clouds later and a gradual cooling trend into the weekend, so we can comfortably plan beach walks along Mission Beach and errands along El Cajon Boulevard without worrying about rain.

    On the breaking news front, CBS 8 reports San Diego lawmakers are holding hearings on the ongoing cross border sewage crisis, with a meeting in La Jolla and a tour of pollution hot spots impacting communities from Imperial Beach up the coast. County air officials just handed out around 200 air purifiers in the South Bay, and local leaders are pushing to expand that effort, which could change how we manage windows and outdoor time near the border.

    From city hall, we continue to track how that pollution debate ties into larger environmental and infrastructure funding talks, especially for residents in San Ysidro and Chula Vista who live and work near Interstate 5 and the border crossing.

    For daily life, inewsource reports that more than one hundred forty thousand San Diegans could see health insurance premiums jump next year as enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies expire at the end of the month, which means many of us may be rechecking budgets from North Park to Rancho Bernardo.

    On public safety, CBS 8 reports San Diego police are investigating a deadly crash in Rancho Peñasquitos where a 60 year old bicyclist was hit near Salmon River Road and Pillo Street, and in Lakeside, deputies fired a shot during a welfare check on Briette Place after a man said he had a gun, though no one was hit and the man was taken into custody. At San Ysidro High School, a girl is recovering after being stabbed in a classroom by another student, with police saying her injuries are not life threatening and the suspected boy was found on campus and arrested.

    In schools, ABC 10News reports La Costa Meadows Elementary in Carlsbad was searched by police after a threat but no danger was found, so classes can move forward with extra reassurance today.

    On real estate and jobs, local agents say median home prices around the county are hovering near the mid eight hundreds, with condos in Mission Valley still a bit lower, and tech and biotech hiring around Sorrento Valley and UTC remains steady, adding a few hundred openings this month in engineering, support, and lab roles.

    Looking at culture and sports, we have live music tonight in the Gaslamp Quarter, with local bands filling venues along Fifth Avenue and smaller acoustic sets popping up near Little Italy and Liberty Station. Over at Petco Park, Padres offseason moves stay the talk of the town as we watch what the front office does to shore up pitching, while high school winter sports ramp up with basketball and soccer tournaments across campuses in Clairemont, Chula Vista, and Poway.

    For the weekend, Balboa Park is lit up with holiday events and family friendly performances, and community groups are hosting toy and food drives in City Heights, National City, and along University Avenue, giving us easy ways to give back.

    Our feel good story today comes from Imperial Beach, where volunteers and former Mayor Paloma Aguirre are working with county partners to get air purifiers and resources into homes most affected by cross border air issues, a reminder that neighbors here step up when others are breathing bad air or facing health concerns.

    Thanks for tuning in, and be sure to subscribe so we can keep sharing what matters in our neighborhoods. This has been San Diego Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates. This has been a quiet please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.

  • Stabbing at San Ysidro High, new housing initiative at City Hall, and a toy drive in City Heights - San Diego Local Pulse

    Stabbing at San Ysidro High, new housing initiative at City Hall, and a toy drive in City Heights - San Diego Local Pulse
    2025/12/11
    Good morning, this is San Diego Local Pulse for Thursday, December 11, 2025.

    We start in the South Bay, where we are still following the stabbing at San Ysidro High School. ABC 10News reports a female student is in the hospital with non life threatening injuries after being stabbed in the upper torso during class Wednesday morning. Police say a male student suspect was found hiding in a building near the main office and taken into custody, and they are calling this an isolated incident. Classes resume under tighter security today, and we know a lot of our families along Otay Mesa Road and the San Ysidro Boulevard corridor are feeling on edge as we send our kids back to campus.

    Across town, at City Hall on C Street, the city is moving ahead with a new housing initiative aimed at first time buyers. According to ABC 10News, the program will offer help with down payments for moderate income families, tied to homes within city limits, as leaders try to keep more of us from being priced out of our own neighborhoods from North Park to Chula Vista.

    On the rental and home sales front, local agents say the median home price across the county is holding around the mid 800 thousands, with some neighborhoods near Balboa Park and coastal areas pushing well past the million mark. Rents for a typical one bedroom in communities like Hillcrest and Pacific Beach are hovering near three thousand dollars a month, keeping pressure on our budgets and on that new City Hall initiative.

    In jobs, regional recruiters say hospitality and biotech are where we see the most openings this week, with hotels around Harbor Drive ramping up hiring and labs along Torrey Pines and in Sorrento Valley adding dozens of roles in research, lab tech, and support positions.

    Weather wise, time and date dot com shows a classic San Diego day. We start cool in the low 50s inland, then climb to the low 70s by early afternoon, with plenty of sun from Mission Bay to El Cajon and just a light breeze. No rain in sight today, so outdoor practices, after school games, and evening events should be good to go.

    In other public safety news, ABC 10News reports San Diego police responded to a deputy involved shooting call in Lakeside; no injuries were reported, but we can expect a continued law enforcement presence in that area through the day.

    On the courts and City Hall front, CBS News reports the family of 16 year old Konoa Wilson will receive a 30 million dollar settlement from the city after he was shot and killed by police in January while fleeing gunfire. City leaders say they are reviewing training and policies as that payout lands on our already stretched budget.

    Turning to schools and sports, several local high school teams are heading into winter tournaments, with strong showings from basketball squads in La Jolla and Clairemont. San Diego Unified has also delayed a big vote on affordable housing for educators, something teachers living from Mira Mesa to City Heights are watching closely as they juggle long commutes and high rents.

    For culture and music, downtown and the Gaslamp are active tonight, with holiday themed shows at the Civic Theatre and small venue concerts along Fifth Avenue. Up in Balboa Park, holiday lights and museum late nights continue, giving us an easy family option after work.

    A quick look at new local business activity: along University Avenue in North Park, a new coffee and co working space is opening this weekend, while a long time restaurant near Mission Beach boardwalk is closing after rising lease costs. These changes continue to reshape our main streets from Ocean Beach to East Village.

    For a feel good story today, a group of volunteers in City Heights has organized a toy and coat drive near Fairmount Avenue, collecting hundreds of items for local kids. Neighbors say it is a bright spot in a week filled with heavy news, and a reminder of how strong our community can be when we show up for one another.

  • San Diego Remains Discovery, Escondido Hit-and-Run and Winter Weather Forecast

    San Diego Remains Discovery, Escondido Hit-and-Run and Winter Weather Forecast
    2025/12/04
    Good morning, this is San Diego Local Pulse for Thursday, December 4th, 2025.

    We're starting this morning with a developing investigation that has authorities across San Diego working around the clock. Human remains were discovered yesterday at a property in the Southcrest neighborhood after California Highway Patrol received a tip. The FBI moved in quickly and served a search warrant, recovering the remains from the site. Right now, investigators with San Diego Police's cold case and missing persons unit are working to identify the remains and determine the cause of death. A 74-year-old man named Dwight William Rhone has been named as a person of interest in the connection. Rhone is already in custody and facing charges related to the killing of a man named Bernardo Moreno. Authorities haven't yet revealed whether the remains belong to one person or multiple people, but the investigation is ongoing with multiple agencies involved.

    In other crime news making headlines, we're following the case of a hit and run that claimed the life of an 11-year-old boy in Escondido last Wednesday. Young Ayden Torres was chasing a ball into the street when he was struck. The suspect, 44-year-old Hector Balderas, is scheduled to appear in court this morning. Immigration and Customs Enforcement announced they've lodged a detainer, noting that Balderas was in the country illegally and had been previously removed four times.

    On the weather front, we're looking at a beautiful day ahead. Expect sunny skies with highs reaching around 70 degrees and winds coming in at about 7 miles per hour. This morning started a bit cool with temperatures in the low 50s, but we'll warm up nicely as we move through the afternoon. One thing to note if you're heading to the beach, the National Weather Service has issued a Beach Hazards Statement through Friday morning due to very high astronomical tides combined with elevated surf up to 5 to 6 feet. La Jolla is seeing predicted high tides at 7.1 feet this morning around 7:34 AM, so we're advising folks to stay out of the water to avoid hazardous swimming conditions.

    The holiday spirit is in full swing around San Diego. SeaWorld is celebrating the season with their Christmas festivities, and the Salvation Army has been out collecting donations. We saw their volunteers ringing bells at a local Walmart in Murphy Canyon yesterday, helping to raise funds for those in need.

    Looking ahead to the next few days, we'll continue to see sunny conditions with temperatures staying in the comfortable 60s and 70s. It's a great time to get outside and enjoy what our beautiful San Diego winter has to offer.

  • San Diego Sports Highlights and Weather Update for November 30th

    San Diego Sports Highlights and Weather Update for November 30th
    2025/11/30
    Good morning, this is San Diego Local Pulse for Sunday, November 30th, 2025.

    We're starting your day with some exciting news from the local sports scene. Last night, the San Diego Clippers delivered an impressive performance against the South Bay Lakers in a G League matchup. Taylor Funk put on a career-best show, scoring 30 points while shooting an outstanding 72 percent from three-point range. Funk connected on eight three-pointers and grabbed ten rebounds for his first double-double of the season. His teammates stepped up too, with Jason Preston adding a season-high 25 points and nine assists, while TyTy Washington Junior chipped in 21 points off the bench. The Clippers dominated down the stretch to secure a 124 to 113 victory. The team shot 50 percent from the field overall, and they're heading into tonight's rematch against South Bay with momentum on their side. That game tips off at six o'clock Pacific time if you want to catch the action.

    In other local sports news, the University of San Diego women's basketball team is staying busy this weekend with back-to-back games at the ASU Thanksgiving Tournament. Yesterday, the Toreros fell short against Little Rock by a score of 51 to 37, but they're not dwelling on it. The team is back in action bright and early this morning at ten o'clock Pacific, facing Southeast Missouri State to wrap up the weekend tournament. Olivia Owens led the Toreros with ten points in yesterday's game and played in her hometown for the first time as a Torero, which added extra meaning to the match.

    Now let's talk about the weather because it's going to shape how our day unfolds. We're looking at mostly cloudy skies today with a high around 63 degrees and a low of 52 tonight. There's a slight chance of precipitation at fourteen percent, so you can probably leave the umbrella at home, but it wouldn't hurt to keep one handy. The morning started cool at around 56 degrees, and we'll see mostly sunny conditions developing through mid-afternoon before clouds roll back in toward evening. Winds will be light, staying under ten miles per hour for most of the day, so it's a good day to get outside and enjoy some fresh air, just layer up a bit.

    Looking ahead, tomorrow should see partly cloudy skies with a high near 67 degrees, so we're warming up slightly. Wednesday is when we need to watch things more carefully, with showers expected and a higher chance of precipitation at 32 percent, so plan indoor activities accordingly. By Thursday, we'll be back to mostly sunny skies and seasonal temperatures.

    That's your San Diego Local Pulse for this Sunday morning. Thank you for tuning in and please subscribe for your daily updates. This has been a Quiet Please production. For more, check out quiet please dot ai.

  • "Afghan Suspect Ties to San Diego, Community Mourns Tragic Loss, Retail Surge, and Sports Highlights"

    "Afghan Suspect Ties to San Diego, Community Mourns Tragic Loss, Retail Surge, and Sports Highlights"
    2025/11/29
    Good morning, this is San Diego Local Pulse for Saturday, November 29th, 2025.

    We're starting this weekend with some important developments affecting our community. First, federal authorities have a significant connection to San Diego in a case that made national headlines. The FBI has been investigating a suspect with ties to our area in connection with a shooting of two National Guard members in Washington DC. The suspect, identified as a 29-year-old Afghan national, has associates here in San Diego, and the Bureau has been actively pursuing leads at our local field office. The incident has prompted the Trump administration to halt asylum decisions and visa processing for Afghan passport holders, a move that's already being felt by immigration advocates and organizations throughout Southern California working with refugee communities.

    On a heartbreaking note, our community is mourning the loss of an 11-year-old Escondido boy, Aiden Torres de Paz, who was struck by a hit-and-run driver while playing outside his home. Police are still actively searching for the vehicle involved. The family is grateful for community support, with fundraisers raising more than thirteen thousand dollars as they grieve this tragedy.

    In business news, we're seeing strong foot traffic return to our retail centers. Black Friday shoppers descended on Fashion Valley Mall yesterday, with some waiting up to 45 minutes just to find a parking spot. Retail analysts are noting a ten percent surge in foot traffic at high-end shopping destinations, suggesting malls are making a comeback in the retail landscape.

    On the weather front, we're looking at beautiful conditions today. This morning started cool and foggy, but we're expecting scattered clouds with temperatures climbing to around 65 to 67 degrees this afternoon. Winds will be light, generally under five miles per hour, making it a pleasant day to get outside. Tomorrow should remain clear with highs in the low 60s as we head into the holiday weekend.

    Sports fans, take note that San Diego State's volleyball team crushed Colorado State in the Mountain West tournament semifinals with a clean three-set sweep, continuing their strong tournament run.

    Looking ahead at community activities, Small Business Saturday is happening today with the post office highlighting local merchant support throughout the region. We also have increased transit service today for the WWE Survivor Series event happening at Petco Park, so be prepared for busier trolley schedules if you're heading downtown or to Mission Valley.

  • San Diego Hit-and-Run, Coyote Attack, and Mild Weekend Weather

    San Diego Hit-and-Run, Coyote Attack, and Mild Weekend Weather
    2025/11/28
    Good morning, this is San Diego Local Pulse for Friday, November 28th, 2025.

    We're starting your day with some important public safety updates from around San Diego County. Escondido police are still searching for a hit and run driver who struck an eleven year old child yesterday afternoon on East Washington Avenue. The child suffered serious injuries and was flown to Rady Children's Hospital. Police are asking anyone who witnessed the crash or was in the area around five o'clock yesterday to come forward. If you have dash cam footage or any information, contact the Escondido Police Department right away.

    In other law enforcement news, Escondido police responded to an armed incident yesterday afternoon when officers encountered a man wielding a knife on South Center City Parkway. The suspect rushed at officers, forcing them to use force. Video shows the man charged at them multiple times even after being brought down. Officers ultimately used rubber bullets to disarm him. He's currently hospitalized, and no one else was injured in the incident.

    We're also learning that the suspect involved in yesterday's shooting of two National Guard members near the White House has a connection to San Diego. The FBI says the suspect is an Afghan national who may have entered the country through an evacuation flight back in 2021. The two Guard members, Sarah Beckstrom and Andrew Wolfe, remain in critical condition after surgery. Investigators say the suspect is not cooperating with authorities at this time.

    On the wildlife front, a three year old girl who was bitten by a coyote near the UTC shopping center on Tuesday night has been released from the hospital. She was treated for bites on her arm and hip. Experts are reminding residents that food is scarce for coyotes this time of year, pushing them into populated areas. If you encounter one, make noise and aggressive movements to scare it away.

    Looking at your Friday weather, we're expecting partly cloudy skies with a high near 70 degrees. Winds will be light at around five miles per hour or less. It's a great day to get outside and enjoy the mild San Diego sunshine we're known for.

    On the sports front, UC San Diego's women's basketball team is heading north tonight to take on the University of Washington. That game tips off at seven o'clock Pacific Time at Alaska Airlines Arena in Seattle.

    As we head into the weekend, remember to take advantage of the pleasant weather. Saturday looks to stay in the mid-sixties with clear skies, and Sunday should bring mostly sunny conditions. It's perfect timing as many of us are settling in after the holiday weekend.

    Thanks so much for tuning in to San Diego Local Pulse. Don't forget to subscribe for more local updates tomorrow morning. This has been a Quiet Please production. For more, check out quietplease dot ai.

  • San Diego News Roundup: Holiday Lights, Corporate Fees, and Workforce Challenges

    San Diego News Roundup: Holiday Lights, Corporate Fees, and Workforce Challenges
    2025/11/27
    Good morning, this is San Diego Local Pulse for Thursday, November 27. We’re starting the day with mostly cloudy skies and a high near 74, so grab a light jacket if you’re heading out early. The tide will be low this evening around 859 PM, just right for a walk along the Embarcadero.

    City Hall is buzzing after Councilmember Sean Elo-Rivera pushed for new corporate fees, aiming to boost funding for local services. Meanwhile, a lawsuit over the Golden Hill apartment project is still pending, with residents and developers waiting for a decision that could shape the neighborhood’s future.

    On the job front, healthcare workers at Sharp Grossmont held a rally this week, following a recent strike authorization. Nurses and staff are demanding better staffing ratios, and the hospital says they’re working to address concerns while keeping patient care a priority.

    In real estate, homes are moving fast—median prices are up about 5 percent from last year, and inventory remains tight, especially in neighborhoods like North Park and La Jolla.

    For culture, the Boys and Girls Club of Northwest San Diego is spreading holiday cheer with food drives and toy collections, bringing smiles to families in need. And if you’re into music, check out the new pop-up concert series at Liberty Station, featuring local bands every weekend through December.

    San Diego State University just landed a spot in the top 100 public universities, and local high school teams are heating up the field—La Jolla High’s soccer team won a big match last night at Mission Bay High’s stadium.

    Now, for community events, the annual Holiday Lights Festival kicks off at Balboa Park this weekend, with food trucks, live music, and a tree lighting ceremony. And if you’re looking for a feel-good story, a group of volunteers at the San Diego Food Bank packed over 10,000 meals for families struggling with food insecurity.

    On the safety front, Escondido police responded to a shooting near Broadway and Ash Street yesterday, with three officers involved. The man was taken to the hospital and is expected to recover. Police are still investigating, and there are no active threats in the area.

    Traffic is heavy on the 5 northbound near the Coronado Bridge, and extra officers are out looking for impaired drivers through the weekend, especially with holiday parties in full swing.
