Updates on Puerto Rico Power Outage:
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms & Explosives has joined the investigation into the cause of the explosion/fire at the Monacillo substation. FBI San Juan is leading the investigation. Engineers from LUMA are also involved.
Investigators and engineers are reviewing the surveillance video and logs accounting for who had access to secure facility.
There is still nothing that point to criminal activity or sabotage, according to a source with direct knowledge of the investigation. (If that changes, I will update as soon as I receive new information).

It was a tense morning in Puerto Rico after a municipal legislator was kidnapped and carjacked. It happened on the eastern side of the island in Humacao.

Ana Ponce Rosa was at a medical lab early this morning when a man walked in and said, according to police, that he had a knife and a gun. He told people in the room to give him their belongings.
Surveillance video, obtained by WAPA TV, shows the man in the lobby of the lab. He kept asking who owned the 2021 white vehicle parked in the parking lot. The legislator said it was hers.

Just Released: photos of the 2 suspects arrested in Southern Calif. & accused of being involved in the road rage incident that led to one of the suspects allegedly firing a gun at the back of a car. The bullet killed a 6yo boy.
Suspects:
Marcus Anthony Eriz, 24
Wynne Lee, 23,
Prosecutors say he was the shooter, she the driver. Both altered their appearance & both seemed surprised when police arrested them at home. They had gone out for sushi Sunday; police were watching them but didn’t want to cause a scene at the restaurant by arresting them there.
The suspects aren’t believed to be involved in any gangs & don’t have a criminal history. The gun used in the road rage incident was registered legally to the suspect who allegedly leaned out the vehicle & fired a shot, while on the way to work, into the back of the victims car.
