Motorcyclist kicks car and triggers chain-reaction crash in apparent road-rage video
The California Highway Patrol is searching for a motorcyclist who was captured on video as he kicked a vehicle on the 14 Freeway in Santa Clarita on Wednesday and triggered a wild, chain-reaction crash that left one motorist injured when his truck flipped. The 22-second clip of the apparent road-rage incident has been shared thousands of times on Facebook.

Teen accidentally killed by L.A. Sheriff's deputies while trying to stop pit bull attack on officers
A teenager fatally shot by Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies in Palmdale early Thursday was accidentally killed as he tried to stop his aggressive dog from attacking the officers, according to an internal sheriff’s department memo. In a news conference at the scene hours after the shooting, Capt. Christopher Bergner of the Sheriff’s Department Homicide Bureau said it appeared that both the teen and the deputy had been struck by “skip” rounds that had ricocheted off the ground when deputies fired at the charging animal. “He may have been struck by one of the skip rounds in what we’re calling an extremely, extremely unfortunate incident,” Bergner said. As they arrived, a pit bull charged at them and bit one of the deputies in the left knee, Bergner said.
