A Los Angeles Police Department officer was attacked late Saturday while in the lobby of the LAPD Harbor Station in San Pedro, California, officials revealed Sunday morning. 
According to the department, the officer was working at the front desk of the station when a man walked in and then proceeded to assault him. 
“The officer’s gun was removed and he was fired upon, but not struck. The Watch Commander heard the commotion and responded to the lobby, at which time an officer-involved shooting occurred. The suspect ran to a white pick-up truck and drove off,” said the department in a statement Sunday morning.

Only two weeks ago, two deputies with the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department were ambushed while sitting in their patrol car in Compton, California, each suffering gunshot wounds that required emergency surgery. 
The female deputy, who was shot in both arms and in the jaw, managed to give her <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/hero-wounded-la-sheriffs-deputy-gave-emergency-medical-treatment-to-her-partner-before-radioing-for-help?%3Futm_source=twitter&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_campaign=dwtwitter">partner emergency medical treatment</a> and radio for help. The two deputies were taken to a local hospital and have since been released.
A suspect is still at large, and the sheriff’s department has put up a six-figure reward for information leading to the suspect’s arrest and criminal conviction. 
“This is just a somber reminder: It’s a dangerous job,” Los Angeles Sheriff Alex Villanueva said after the ambush shooting. “Actions — words — have consequences, and our job does not get any easier because people don’t like law enforcement.”
“The two deputies were doing their job, minding their own business, watching out for the safety of the people on the train, and seeing somebody just walk up and just start shooting on them — it pisses me off, it dismays me at the same time,” he later added. “There’s no pretty way to say it.”

In a viral video captured by an independent journalist, anti-police protesters berate a Los Angeles police officer, launching &#8220;slurs&#8221; at the man and cursing him out as the officer stands stoically.
Protests broke out in cities across the country Wednesday night, on the heels of the announcement that no officers were indicted for murder in the Breonna Taylor case. Two officers were cleared, and another was charged with wanton endangerment in the first degree &#8212; which comes with a maximum sentence of five years &#8212; for shooting into a neighboring apartment while returning gunfire sparked by Taylor&#8217;s boyfriend.
&#8220;LOS ANGELES: Agitators yell slurs at black police officer,&#8221; journalist Tomas Morales captioned the post.
As seen in the video, the officer is flicked off, called a &#8220;n****,&#8221; a &#8220;b****,&#8221; and other names. The law enforcement official does not respond, but stands with his hands at his sides and takes the verbal abuse.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Moreover, during Wednesday night rioting in Louisville, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-multiple-police-officers-shot-in-louisville-as-anti-police-riots-hit-city">two police officers</a> were shot.
“One officer was shot in the abdomen below their bulletproof vest and is in surgery, and a second was shot in the thigh, according to the source,” the Louisville Courier-Journal <a href="https://www.courier-journal.com/story/news/local/breonna-taylor/2020/09/23/breonna-taylor-protests-louisville-police-officer-shot-downtown/3512127001/">reported</a>. “MetroSafe said it received reports the shooting occurred at South Brook Street and Broadway Avenue.”
Earlier in the day, Kentucky Republican Attorney General Daniel Cameron encouraged citizens to listen to the facts of the Taylor case, not misinformation boosted by activists and celebrities.
“Our reaction to the truth is the society we want to be,” Cameron said at the presser. “Do we really want the truth? Or do we want a truth that fits our narrative? Do we want the facts? Are we content to blindly accept our own version of events? We, as a community, must make this decision.”
“There will be celebrities, influencers, and activists who having never lived in Kentucky, will try to tell us how to feel, suggesting they understood the facts of this case and that they know our community and the commonwealth better than we do,” he added. “They don’t.”
As outlined by  <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/kentucky-ag-breonna-taylor-warrant-was-not-no-knock-officers-justified-in-use-of-force">The Daily Wire</a>, the Republican AG said that &#8220;witness testimony indicated officers appeared to correctly execute a search warrant on Taylor’s apartment in connection with a drug case and that the two other officers involved in an ensuing shootout with Taylor’s boyfriend, Kenneth Walker, were justified in their use of force because Walker fired first.&#8221;

https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2020/09/Screen-Shot-2020-09-24-at-12.25.44-PM.png

A group of concerned students, parents, and alumni at a prestigious school in Los Angeles are documenting what they claim is &#8220;the self-destruction of California&#8217;s most elite private school,&#8221; after the institution&#8217;s leadership rolled out extensive measures by which they intend to promote anti-racism.
Individuals associated with Harvard-Westlake School, a college preparatory school that the <a href="https://www.latimes.com/local/la-me-harvard-westlake-20131028-story.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Los Angeles Times</a> described as &#8220;the destination for many children of L.A.&#8217;s business and entertainment elite,&#8221; have been invited to anonymously &#8220;submit experiences about the intimidation and indoctrination students and faculty are being subjected to as the school obeys the demands of radicals,&#8221; according to the <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScsP5ldZaKndBSLqhI24nxZD-Lhao5O0fxM-bCP_3VRc9BtWQ/viewform" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Woke at Harvard-Westlake Project</a>.
The Project, the Instagram account of which is &#8220;<a href="https://www.instagram.com/wokeathw/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">wokeathw</a>,&#8221; describes itself as &#8220;a rapidly growing coalition of parents, students, alums, and faculty with widely varied political and personal backgrounds who are deeply alarmed at how quickly Harvard-Westlake&#8217;s standards of rigor and academic excellence are being discarded in response to a campaign of accusation, denunciation, and demand by activists.&#8221;
Submissions to the account so far include recordings of a dean praising Tamika Mallory and Linda Sarsour, the associate head of school endorsing The New York Times&#8217; 1619 Project, and an email sent to 9th graders from a teacher informing her students that she uses the prefix &#8220;Mx.&#8221; and identifies as &#8220;a queer white womxn of European descent.&#8221;
Other images depict assignments about how &#8220;racism is the bedrock of the USA&#8221; and instructed to &#8220;annotate where &#8216;power&#8217; and &#8216;privilege&#8217; reside in the text&#8221; of &#8220;A Catcher in the Rye.&#8221; According to a statement from someone who said he was a Jewish student in the upper school, the mandatory presentation about Tamika Mallory and Linda Sarsour was particularly distressing:
<blockquote>As a Jewish student, I felt under attack by Harvard-Westlake. I spoke with friends who felt the same way, and were horrified and confused about why the school was promoting extremists and hate-peddlers. We are all afraid to speak out, because the school has made it clear that it is embracing radicalism and we are supposed to obey, not question. This mandatory presentation was introduced by the head of the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, Janine Hancock Jones. She either thinks anti-Semitism is fine, or she&#8217;s incapable of recognizing it, which is incredibly disturbing for someone in her role.</blockquote>
On June 24, amid the turmoil roiling the country after George Floyd&#8217;s death, the school&#8217;s leadership released a document titled &#8220;<a href="https://www.hw.com/pdf/Anti-RacismatHarvard-Westlake.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Anti-Racism At Harvard-Westlake School,</a>&#8221; in which they explained that &#8220;the current national reckoning with systemic racism and injustice has led our community to its own self-examination, and it is clear that we still have a long way to go in our efforts to make our community as inclusive as it ought to be.&#8221;
After speaking to &#8220;students, alumni, parents, faculty, and staff,&#8221; they continued, it became evident to them that &#8220;Harvard-Westlake’s own practices have contributed, however unintentionally, to the racism and injustice that people of color have experienced at our school.&#8221; Self-described people of color comprise 55% of the student body, according to <a href="https://www.hw.com/about/HW-at-a-Glance" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">the school&#8217;s own data</a>.
The document goes on to list across 18 pages the various ways in which the school, where <a href="https://www.hw.com/admission/Tuition-Information" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">annual tuition and fees approach $50,000</a>, intends to promote &#8220;the active opposition to systemic racism through intentional actions, policies, or practices. This opposition must be present at the individual, interpersonal, institutional, and structural levels.&#8221;
Actions taken span curriculum changes, increasing admissions and hiring diversity, requiring implicit bias training for faculty and staff, and banning the use of the N word school-wide, among other things.
The Woke At Harvard-Westlake Project claims such measures are &#8220;politicizing and racializing virtually every aspect of the school,&#8221; adding in part:
<blockquote>These changes are already tearing the social fabric of the school, with many students, faculty, and parents horrified at the replacement of education with demands for adherence to radical and cult-like new racial theories. (One HW class instructs students that &#8220;colorblindness&#8221; &#8212; not judging people by the color of their skin &#8212; is &#8220;not only disingenuous but dangerous.&#8221;)
While we understand the administration felt that &#8220;something&#8221; had to be done to address what it perceived as a &#8220;crisis,&#8221; we do not accept the notion that the changes being implemented will improve anything. In fact, they will sow division, alienation, grievance, and suspicion on campus.
Please join us as we raise awareness of what&#8217;s happening to our beloved institution. You are not alone, and you are not crazy for feeling that the changes being forced on you and your children are profoundly unwise.</blockquote>
Similar to the &#8220;wokeathw&#8221; account, an Instagram account called &#8220;<a href="https://www.instagram.com/blackathw/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">blackathw</a>,&#8221; which was created by members of the Class of 2019 on June 21, encouraged Harvard-Westlake students, faculty, and alumni of color to &#8220;speak your truth&#8221; with anonymous submissions. &#8220;Our goal is twofold: For one, we want to highlight just how pervasive racism is on our campus, despite our living in a &#8216;liberal bubble&#8217;. For another, we hope that reading one another&#8217;s stories can help you know that you&#8217;re not alone,&#8221; they said.
As of publishing, 31 posts on the account offer alleged anecdotes recounting times that students experienced discrimination, including an allegation of sexual assault.
&#8220;Harvard-Westlake has fostered bigotry for the entirety of its existence,&#8221; the account claims.
According to <a href="http://hwchronicle.com/school-responds-to-blackathw-instagram-account/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">The Chronicle</a>, the school&#8217;s online newspaper:
<blockquote>Director of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Janine Jones said she anticipated the creation of Blackathw after students at private schools such as Campbell Hall, Brentwood School and Marlborough School founded similar accounts. Since Blackathw was created by alumni June 21, Jones said she has been reading the posts regularly.
&#8220;My initial reaction was pride,&#8221; Jones said. “I was really proud of the students who are a part of the class of 2019 who started the account because it takes a lot of courage to do something like that. It is not easy to be an African American student at Harvard-Westlake or at any school where you are not in the dominant racial culture.
</blockquote>
Harvard-Westlake School did not respond to The Daily Wire&#8217;s request for comment.

A reward for information that leads to the conviction of a gunman for shooting two Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies has skyrocketed to nearly $700,000 in just a few days.
The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors initially offered a reward of $100,000 on Sunday for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the shooter, but the reward has since grown as other government agencies and private entities have added to the pot. By Thursday, the reward offering had jumped to $675,000, according to <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/US/reward-wanted-gunman-shot-los-angeles-sheriffs-deputies/story?id=73062985">ABC News</a>.
The Association for Los Angeles Deputy Sheriffs pitched in $75,000 and the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority, which the deputies were monitoring when they were shot, donated an additional $25,000. Private donors gave $75,000 more to the offering.
A separate fund is also growing to help the two deputies shot in the incident recover. A <a href="https://www.gofundme.com/f/back-the-bear">GoFundMe</a> page launched by sheriff&#8217;s detective Keegan McInnis and dedicated to paying the deputies’ substantial medical bills had soared past $660,000 by Friday morning on toward its goal of $750,000.
The GoFundMe page explains:
<blockquote>Two LASD Deputies were ambushed while sitting in their patrol car. Both Deputies will require multiple surgeries and have a long road to recovery ahead of them. We are asking for our brothers and sisters in our communities as well as our brothers and sisters in law enforcement to come together and help us raise money to ensure their needs and the needs of their families are taken care of.
We will be partnering with our union’s relief fund, ALADS C.A.R.E.S., who at the conclusion of the GoFundMe will take control of the funds and distribute them directly to the two Deputies.</blockquote>
Two <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/l-a-sheriffs-department-offers-six-figure-reward-for-info-in-shooting-of-ambushed-deputies">Los Angeles County deputies</a>, a 24-year-old man, and a 31-year-old mother, were shot on Saturday night by a gunman who can be seen on video walking up to their patrol car and firing multiple rounds through the passenger side window. Law enforcement officials said the attack was an ambush that left both deputies in critical condition.
Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva posted an update on Twitter on Wednesday that the one of the deputies, the 24-year-old man, was released from the hospital.
“We at @LASDHQ appreciate the outpouring of prayers and support you have shown for our ambushed deputies,” Villanueva said. “Great news, one of those deputies was released from the hospital today. He has a long road ahead for recovery. But he&#8217;s not alone. We, as a community, are in this together.”

Earlier this week, Villanueva challenged NBA star <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/la-county-sheriff-to-lebron-step-up-to-the-plate-and-double-reward-to-find-man-who-shot-deputies">LeBron James</a>, known for his activism against police brutality, to donate to the growing reward to catch the person or people who carried out the attack on the deputies. James has yet to respond publicly to Villanueva.
“This challenge is to Lebron James. I want you to match that and double that reward,” Villanueva said. “I know you care about law enforcement. You expressed a very interesting statement about your perspective on race relations and on officer-involved shootings and the impact that it has on the African-American community. And I appreciated that. But likewise, we need to appreciate that respect for life goes across professions, across races, creeds, and I’d like to see LeBron James step up to the plate and double that.”

The Lynwood city council voted Tuesday to place City Manager Jose Ometeotl on paid administrative leave after he posted an Instagram photo of Malcom X, with the text “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/city-of-lynwood-responds-to-city-manager-who-posted-chickens-come-home-to-roost-after-deputies-shot">Chickens Come Home To Roost</a>” over the image, in response to two Los Angeles County Sheriff’s deputies getting ambushed by an armed assailant over the weekend.
As a result of a city council vote, Ometeotl will now undergo an “internal investigation,&#8221; officials said late Tuesday.

Ometeotl wrote in the Instagram post: “The shooting of anyone is a wholly unacceptable occurrence in society. I do not condone the type of violence seen in the shooting of the deputies in Compton. I will say that communities like Compton have been plagued by deputy gangs that inflict fear and violence in the community. These deputies murdered, framed and stole from the community just because they could. Good deputies never turned on bad deputies for fear of retaliation and when caught most of these bad deputies kept their jobs and continued on their criminal career.”
“The fact that someone randomly opened fire on deputies is to be expected in the society we live in today.

After Fox News Los Angeles reporter Bill Melugin posted a screenshot of the city manager’s post to Twitter, Ometoetl made his Instagram account private, and the city distanced themselves from his post, saying it wasn’t reflective of the council’s beliefs.

Authorities have not yet arrested a suspect for the shooting, which left two deputies, a 31-year-old mother and a 24-year-old male, in critical condition and prompted an outpouring of support for law enforcement officers. Both officers had been sworn in to the force only 14 months ago, according to L.A. Sheriff Alex Villanueva.
On Tuesday evening, Villanueva announced that the male deputy had been released from the hospital, marking the next step in his long road to recovery.
“Great news, one of those deputies was released from the hospital today. He has a long road ahead for recovery. But he&#8217;s not alone. We, as a community, are in this together,” said Villanueva.

City Manager Receives Paid Leave For ‘Chickens Come Home To Roost’ Post About Ambushed Deputies

The Lynwood city council voted Tuesday to place City Manager Jose Ometeotl on paid administrative leave after he posted an Instagram photo of Malcom X,

One of the two Los Angeles County Sheriff&#8217;s Deputies, seriously wounded in an ambush attack Saturday, has been identified as 31-year-old Claudia Apolinar, a former librarian-turned-rookie cop who may have saved her partner&#8217;s life.
As <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/l-a-sheriffs-department-offers-six-figure-reward-for-info-in-shooting-of-ambushed-deputies">The Daily Wire reported Monday</a>, Apolinar was shot through the jaw in the attack, but after radioing for help, stopped to tend to her partner, who was shot in the forehead, arm, and hand. The Los Angeles County Sheriff&#8217;s Department released a still photo of Apolinar Monday, showing her bleeding from a face wound.
“LASD &amp; the families of the two ambushed deputies have given me permission to show this graphic photo of the moment after they were shot. I’m told female deputy was shot through jaw, still radioed for help &amp; applied tourniquet to male deputy’s wounds. Both stable now,” FOX LA reporter Bill Melugin noted upon the photo&#8217;s release.
The Sheriff&#8217;s Department released an extended video on Tuesday.
WARNING: The video is graphic.

“She helped the other wounded deputy, got on the radio, provided medical care, got him to a place of safety ’cause they didn’t know if there was another attack coming their way,” Sheriff Alex Villanueva noted  in an interview on Monday,
Tuesday morning, Apolinar&#8217;s family released more information about the 31-year-old. In addition to being a mother of a 6-year-old boy, Apolinar is new to the force, having only applied to become a deputy three years ago.
&#8220;Claudia Apolinar, who is being guarded by fellow members of the sheriff’s department while she and her partner – a 24-year-old deputy – continue to recover, worked as an aide in a Los Angeles Country library starting in 2011. In 2017, she applied to be a sheriff’s deputy,&#8221; <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/sheriff-los-angeles-county-sheriff-compton-shot">Fox News notes, citing the Daily Mail</a>, which published the news first.
&#8220;Apolinar, who is a 31-year-old mother to a 6-year-old boy, and her partner were ambushed Saturday night while sitting in their car at a metro center in Compton,&#8221; the outlet continued. &#8220;They were rushed to the hospital, where their conditions were later stabilized.&#8221;
Protesters attempted to block the entrances and exits to the hospital where Apolinar and her partner were treated, reportedly shouting anti-police slogans and, at one point, even trying to rush the emergency room.
“It’s an extreme situation. She was shot in the face, shot in the upper torso several times,” LASD Lt. Brandon Dean told the Daily Mail, per Fox. “To have the wherewithal to get yourself out of the vehicle and the line of fire in case it continues, but then to take care of your partner, initiate radio traffic make sure the civilians in the area are safe, it shows a lot about her courage and intestinal fortitude.&#8221;
Apolinar&#8217;s family has been by her bedside since the attack and held a vigil Sunday night as Apolinar and her partner recovered from their wounds. She and her partner are both reportedly stable but remain in critical condition. Her partner is said to be alert.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff&#8217;s Department doubled a reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction in the attack. Police are now offering $200,000.

Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva challenged NBA player LeBron James, who <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/early-lead/wp/2016/11/06/lebron-james-introduces-president-hillary-clinton-at-cleveland-rally/">engages</a> in left-wing activism promoting Democrats while off the court, to step up and double the reward money being offered to find the man who is responsible for shooting two sheriff&#8217;s deputies in the head late last week.
&#8220;This challenge is to Lebron James. I want you to match that and double that reward,&#8221; Villanueva said. &#8220;I know you care about law enforcement. You expressed a very interesting statement about your perspective on race relations and on officer-involved shootings and the impact that it has on the African-American community. And I appreciated that. But likewise, we need to appreciate that respect for life goes across professions, across races, creeds, and I&#8217;d like to see LeBron James step up to the plate and double that.&#8221;
CBS Los Angeles <a href="https://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2020/09/14/lebron-james-la-county-deputies-shot-sheriff-villanueva/">noted</a> that there were two private pledges totaling $75,000 for information that leads to the arrest of the individual responsible for the shooting. That money is in addition to the $100,000 that is being offered by the county.
&#8220;James, who has been vocal about police shootings involving Black people, had not publicly responded to the sheriff&#8217;s challenge as of early Tuesday morning,&#8221; The Associated Press <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/la-sheriff-challenges-lebron-james-reward-money-ambushed-deputies/">reported</a>. &#8220;Last month, James expressed outrage after an officer shot Jacob Blake in Kenosha, Wisconsin, saying that Black people in America are &#8216;terrified.'&#8221;
Following police shooting Blake, James wrote on Twitter: &#8220;And y’all wonder why we say what we say about the Police!! Someone please tell me WTF is this???!!! Exactly another black man being targeted. This s**t is so wrong and so sad!! Feel so sorry for him, his family and OUR PEOPLE!! We want JUSTICE&#8221;

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
The Kenosha Professional Police Association (KPPA) released a statement about the shooting, noting that the suspect had a felony warrant out for his arrest, that he was allegedly armed, and that he allegedly assaulted police officers.
The <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/kenosha-police-union-offers-new-details-on-jacob-blakes-alleged-actions-attacked-police-tried-to-steal-car-was-armed">statement</a> then outlined in chronological order the series of events that officers claimed happened:
<ul>
<li>Mr. Blake was not unarmed. He was armed with a knife. The officers did not see the knife initially. The officers first saw him holding the knife while they were on the passenger side of the vehicle. The “main” video circulating on the internet shows Mr. Blake with the knife in his left hand when he rounds the front of the car. The officers issued repeated commands for Mr. Blake to drop the knife. He did not comply.</li>
<li>The officers initially tried to speak with Mr. Blake, but he was uncooperative.</li>
<li>The officers then began issuing verbal commands to Mr. Blake, but he was non-complaint.</li>
<li>The officers next went “hands-on” with Mr. Blake, so as to gain compliance and control.</li>
<li>Mr. Blake actively resisted the officers’ attempt to gain compliance.</li>
<li>The officers then disengaged and drew their tasers, issuing commands to Mr. Blake that he would be tased if he did not comply.</li>
<li>Based on his non-compliance, one officer tased Mr. Blake. The taser did not incapacitate Mr. Blake.</li>
<li>The officers once more went “hands-on” with Mr. Blake; again, trying to gain control of the escalating situation.</li>
<li>Mr. Blake forcefully fought with the officers, including putting one of the officers in a headlock.</li>
<li>A second taser (from a different officer than had deployed the initial taser) was then deployed on Mr. Blake. It did not appear to have any impact on him.</li>
<li>Based on the inability to gain compliance and control after using verbal, physical and less-lethal means, the officers drew their firearms.</li>
<li>Mr. Blake continued to ignore the officers’ commands, even with the threat of lethal force now present.</li>

The city manager of Lynwood, California, which is near Compton, where two Los Angeles County deputies were ambushed and shot in the head Saturday night, posted a meme on Instagram after the shooting with a picture of the 1960’s black leader Malcolm X and the caption “CHICKENS COME HOME TO ROOST.”
Jose Ometeotl, City Manager of Lynwood, also wrote in the post, “The fact that someone randomly opened fire on deputies is to be expected in the society we live in today.” Ometeotl wrote:
<blockquote>The shooting of anyone is a wholly unacceptable occurrence in society.  I do not condone the type of violence seen in the shooting of the deputies in Compton.  I will say that communities like Compton have been plagued by deputy gangs that inflict fear and violence in the community.  These deputies murdered, framed and stole from the community just because they could.  Good deputies never turned on bad deputies for fear of retaliation and when caught most of these bad deputies kept their jobs and continued on their criminal career.
The fact that someone randomly opened fire on deputies is to be expected in the society we live in today.  The political climate and leadership of Sheriff Villanueva has only sowed the seeds of anger and frustration in the community.  I pray for the deputies and their families while still demanding justice for Andres Guardato, Breona Taylor, Tamir Rice, Ahmaud Arbery &#8230;</blockquote>

<blockquote>Two deputies with the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department were hospitalized Saturday evening after a male gunman approached their patrol vehicle, fired multiple shots inside in an ambush attack, and then fled on foot, according to officials and video surveillance.
One of the deputies is a 31-year-old mother of a 6-year-old boy, and the other is a 24-year-old male, revealed Sheriff Alex Villanueva in a press conference Saturday evening. He did not disclose their condition.
“This is just a somber reminder: It’s a dangerous job,” said Villanueva during the press conference. “Actions — words — have consequences, and our job does not get any easier because people don’t like law enforcement.”</blockquote>
On Sunday, the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department put up a six-figure reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the man who ambushed and shot the two deputies.
“We at the LASD would like to offer our sincerest appreciation for the overwhelming support being offered from all over the Nation.

According to <a href="https://abc7.com/la-deputies-shot-los-angeles-shooting-compton-ambush/6421149/">ABC7</a>, a senior LASD official told the news agency that one of the sheriff’s deputies, a 31-year-old mother, is in critical but stable condition after she was shot in the jaw and arms. The other deputy, a 24-year-old male, was described as alert after he was shot in the forehead, arm, and hand.
The sheriff&#8217;s department has not confirmed the deputies’ condition or released their identities. Sheriff Alex Villanueva indicated Saturday evening that both of the deputies were relatively recent additions to the force, having been sworn in by him only 14 months ago.
During a press conference on Saturday evening, Villanueva described the shooting as a “somber reminder” that law enforcement officers have a difficult job, which “does not get any easier because people don’t like law enforcement.”
Shortly after Villanueva’s remarks — as if to bolster his point — a handful of anti-police demonstrators showed up to the hospital and shouted hateful things at the law enforcement officers standing guard as their fellow deputies inside the building fought for their lives.
One of the demonstrators that evening filmed himself approaching the hospital and seemed to identify himself as a member of the Africa Town Coalition.

Owens blasted &#8220;pea-brained&#8221; James for tweets he posted back in May that said black men in the United States are &#8220;<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/lebron-james-black-people-literally-hunted-everyday-everytime-we-step-foot-outside">literally hunted</a>&#8221; every time they leave their homes.

The two sheriff&#8217;s deputies &#8212; a 31-year-old female and a 24-year-old male &#8212; were shot in an ambush-style unprovoked attack, authorities say. &#8220;The pair were sitting in their parked vehicle outside of a train station when they were approached by a suspect who opened fire without apparent cause, leaving the two deputies severely wounded,&#8221; <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/la-sherffis-npr-reporter-arrested-for-interfering-with-cops-as-they-tried-to-control-blm-protests-outside-hospital">The Daily Wire</a> reported.
Following the ambush, the deputies were taken by ambulance to a local hospital. As the pair were undergoing emergency surgery, alleged Black Lives Matter protesters moved to block hospital entrances and exits and reportedly shouted that they wanted the deputies to die. The protesters also, news reports note, tried to storm the hospital&#8217;s emergency department.

“The female adult, who was later identified as a member of the press, did not identify herself as press and later admitted she did not have proper press credentials on her person. Both individuals have been arrested for 148 P.C.,” another tweet said.

Just before midnight Saturday night, after the news came that two Los Angeles County officers, one a 31-year-old mother of a six-year-old boy and the other a 24-year-old male cop, had been s<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/l-a-sheriff-two-deputies-31-year-old-mother-24-year-old-male-ambushed-in-cowardly-attack">hot in the head in a cold-blooded ambush</a> as they were sitting in their patrol car, longtime Los Angeles radio show host Larry Elder, who was a lone conservative black voice on local radio for decades, furiously denounced the attack while citing groups and individuals whom he felt had laid the groundwork for such an attack.
Elder tweeted, “Thanks ‪#BlackLivesMatter‪@BarackObama; ‪@DNC; ‪@CNN; ‪@MSNBC; ‪@TheRevAl; condescending &#8216;woke&#8217; media; condescending &#8216;woke&#8217; academia; and condescending &#8216;woke&#8217; Hollywood for pushing the lie that cops kill blacks just because they&#8217;re black.

Actor James Woods, who has been forcefully condemning the rioters and looters who have ravaged the United States this summer and who is a staunch supporter of police around the country, tweeted succinctly, “Brilliant. Thank you.”
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Recently, responding to a caller who accused him of denying police were guilty of “systemic” racism, Elder gave a short dissertation on exactly why he believed what he believed:
<blockquote>Recent years, the police have killed an average of a thousand people each year. This is in a population of 350 million Americans. Some 40 million are black; I’ve heard the number 35, 35, 32, it’s around in there, okay? In the last 60-years, according to the Centers for Disease control, the rate at which people have shot and killed blacks declined 75% percent. Last year, near as we can figure out, there were 25 unarmed black people killed, not just shot and killed, but killed by many other ways. 25. At least as many unarmed whites have been killed by the police as unarmed blacks. Where’s the outcry?</blockquote>
&#8220;Of all the people police killed, less than 4% are &#8216;white cop killing unarmed black person,&#8217; Elder continued. &#8220;And again, unarmed person does not necessarily mean &#8216;not dangerous.&#8217; Michael Brown was unarmed, was perceived recently as dangerous.  His DNA was found on the officer&#8217;s gun.  And, for example, that immigrant was killed in New York some years ago, Amadou Diallo, he was cornered, the police had a suspect who looked like him, they had the wrong guy, but they asked him to show his hands, he reached into pocket to pull out his wallet, the police thought he was going for a firearm, blew him away.&#8221;
&#8220;Hillary pronounced the people who killed him &#8216;murderers&#8217; publicly, then later on apologized because there hadn&#8217;t been a trial yet, hadn&#8217;t been one word of testimony yet,&#8221; Elder said.  &#8220;All of them were found not guilty by a multi-ethnic jury.  So just because you are unarmed, does not necessarily mean that you were not reasonably perceived as dangerous.  So when you get down to those that were unarmed and were not reasonably perceived as dangerous, you&#8217;re talking about a tiny, tiny fraction.  Even less than the 4% of all the people that were killed by the police.&#8221;

A Los Angeles National Public Radio reporter was arrested early Sunday, Los Angeles County Sheriffs said, after she &#8220;interfered&#8221; with police trying to prevent alleged Black Lives Matter protesters from storming the hospital where two severely wounded L.A. County Sheriffs deputies were taken following a horrific ambush attack.
Saturday night, two sheriffs deputies, a 31-year-old female and a 24-year-old male, were shot in what law enforcement officials are calling an <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/l-a-sheriff-two-deputies-31-year-old-mother-24-year-old-male-ambushed-in-cowardly-attack">ambush attack</a>. The pair were sitting in their parked vehicle outside of a train station when they were approached by a suspect who opened fire without apparent cause, leaving the two deputies severely wounded.
The two deputies were taken to a local hospital. While the deputies were undergoing emergency surgery, alleged Black Lives Matter protesters moved to block the hospital&#8217;s entrances and exits as part of a demonstration. &#8220;Witnesses later said that the far-left activists, who shouted outside that they hoped the deputies died, attempted to storm the emergency room where the deputies were taken,&#8221; The Daily Wire&#8217;s Ryan Saavedra <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/blm-activists-try-to-block-storm-hospital-where-shot-deputies-were-taken-i-hope-they-fing-die">reported Sunday</a>.
A number of protesters were arrested in the altercation.
Los Angeles crime reporter Scott Schwebke first noted, early Sunday, that L.A.&#8217;s ABC affiliate had captured the arrest of a reporter, later identified as KPCC&#8217;s Josie Huang, on video. The footage shows deputies taking Huang to the ground and handcuffing her before taking her away in a police vehicle.

A number of people on Twitter lashed out at the L.A. Sheriffs Department for arresting Huang, arguing that her press credentials can be seen hanging around her neck in the ABC footage. The Sheriff&#8217;s Department, though, later tweeted that Huang admitted that she was not properly identified.
&#8220;After deputies issued a dispersal order for the unlawful assembly of a group of protesters blocking the hospital emergency entrance &amp; exits, a male adult protester refused to comply &amp; cooperate,&#8221; L.A. County Sheriffs tweeted, explaining why Huang was detained. &#8220;During his arrest, a struggle ensued at which time a female adult ran towards the deputies, ignored repeated commands to stay back as they struggled with the male and interfered with the arrest.&#8221;
&#8220;The female adult, who was later identified as a member of the press, did not identify herself as press and later admitted she did not have proper press credentials on her person. Both individuals have been arrested for 148 P.C.,&#8221; they noted.
California Penal Code Section 148(a) PC specifically prohibits knowing resisting or interfering with a lawful arrest or other emergency action by a known member of either law enforcement or an emergency medical team.

L.A. Sheriffs: NPR Reporter Arrested For ‘Interfering’ With Cops As They Tried To Control BLM Protests Outside Hospital

Two deputies with the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department were hospitalized Saturday evening after a male gunman approached their patrol vehicle, fired multiple shots inside in an ambush attack, and then fled on foot, according to officials and video surveillance. 
One of the deputies is a 31-year-old mother of a 6-year-old boy, and the other is a 24-year-old male, revealed Sheriff Alex Villanueva in a press conference Saturday evening. He did not disclose their condition. 
“This is just a somber reminder: It’s a dangerous job,” said Villanueva during the press conference. “Actions — words — have consequences, and our job does not get any easier because people don’t like law enforcement.”
Villanueva said the two deputies, both of whom joined the force only 14 months ago, had been “ambushed” in a “cowardly fashion” while in their vehicle by a local metro station. 
“The two deputies were doing their job, minding their own business, watching out for the safety of the people on the train, and seeing somebody just walk up and just start shooting on them — it pisses me off, it dismays me at the same time,” he said later in the press conference. “There’s no pretty way to say it.”
After LASD posted an edited-down video clip of the shooting, President Donald Trump shared it on Twitter, simply saying: “Animals that must be hit hard!” The video clip has been attached below: 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

Villanueva said that the two deputies had been shot multiple times, and were transported to a local hospital by other deputies after radioing for help. He also said both were responsive when they arrived at the hospital, but declined to elaborate on the nature of their wounds or where they had been shot. 
According to Fox News Los Angeles reporter Bill Melugin, the full video of the shooting, which has not been publicly released, shows the suspect creeping toward the vehicle before he shoots at the deputies. The full video also shows one of the deputies falling out of the vehicle and stumbling after the shooter flees, he said.

Los Angeles Police Chief Michel Moore released a statement after the attack, saying: &#8220;Tonight we pray for these two guardians to survive. I recognize and acknowledge we live in troubled times. But we must as a community work thru our differences while loudly and resoundly condemn violence. Blessed are the Peacemakers.&#8221;

Alleged Black Lives Matter activists attempted to block the entrance to a hospital in Los Angeles late on Saturday night that two deputies were rushed to after being shot during an apparent assassination attempt. Witnesses later said that the far-left activists, who shouted outside that they hoped the deputies died, attempted to storm the emergency room where the deputies were taken.
&#8220;Animals that must be hit hard!&#8221; President Donald Trump <a href="https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1305009737386221568">wrote</a> on <a href="https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1305135839559651329">Twitter</a>. &#8220;If they die, fast trial death penalty for the killer. Only way to stop this!&#8221;
The L.A. County Sheriffs identified the individuals as “protesters” in their tweets about the matter.
&#8220;To the protesters blocking the entrance &amp; exit of the HOSPITAL EMERGENCY ROOM yelling &#8216;We hope they die&#8217; referring to 2 LA Sheriff&#8217;s ambushed today in #Compton: DO NOT BLOCK EMERGENCY ENTRIES &amp; EXITS TO THE HOSPITAL,&#8221; the LA County Sheriffs wrote on Twitter. &#8220;People&#8217;s lives are at stake when ambulances can&#8217;t get through.&#8221;
The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department said that a 24-year-old male deputy and a 31-year-old female deputy were the ones that were wounded and that they were in serious condition. Law enforcement said that the deputies were sitting in their police vehicle when the suspect approached from the rear and opened fire.
Numerous journalists and activists online identified the protesters as being Black Lives Matter supporters, though that detail has yet to be confirmed.
Human Events Managing Editor Ian Miles Cheong wrote on Twitter: &#8220;Black Lives Matter activists confront law enforcement at Los Angeles hospital where wounded officers were taken after they were shot.&#8221;
An individual in the video can be heard telling the police guarding the building: “I want to deliver a message to the family of the pigs: I hope they f***ing die.”

Alex Stone of ABC News reported, “The two deputies are out of surgery and in critical condition. Both shot multiple times by this suspect who casually walked up, pulled out a gun, and shot them through the passenger side window. The suspect then took off.”

Two deputies with the Los Angeles Sheriff&#8217;s Department were shot Saturday as they sat in their patrol vehicle near a metro station in Compton, California, the department said Saturday evening.
The deputies, one male and one female, were both shot “multiple times” and are currently in critical condition and undergoing surgery, according to the department.
“Moments ago, 2 of our Sheriff Deputies were shot in Compton and were transported to a local hospital. They are both still fighting for their lives, so please keep them in your thoughts and prayers. We will update this thread with information as it becomes available,” said the department Saturday evening.
Half an hour later, the department provided an update: “Update: One male deputy and one female deputy were ambushed as they sat in their patrol vehicle. Both sustained multiple gunshot wounds and are in critical condition. They are both currently undergoing surgery. The suspect is still at large.”

According to <a href="https://www.foxla.com/news/two-lasd-deputies-reportedly-shot-at-compton-train-station-search-for-suspects-underway">Fox News Los Angeles</a> reporter Bill Melugin, the sheriff’s department said that the two deputies were at the Compton PAX station, a local metro station, and were both shot in the head in what one official described to him as a “straight ambush.”
Melugin later said he obtained surveillance video of the shooting, saying: “I have just been sent surveillance video of the shooting and can confirm it is 100% an ambush. Man slowly creeps up to the vehicle like he’s stalking it, fires shots through the window, then flees the scene. I will not post any of the video until given approval to do so.”
Melugin later added: “I will not be showing any of the video unless LASD approves as it is quite upsetting. Just know it was a COMPLETE ambush.”

Two Sheriff’s Deputies Shot In Los Angeles In Ambush

Two deputies with the Los Angeles Sheriff&#039;s Department were shot Saturday as they sat in their patrol vehicle near a metro station in Compton, California,

The Los Angeles Superior Court issued a preliminary injunction on Thursday against Grace Community Church and its senior pastor John MacArthur, giving the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/grace-church-cannot-thumb-its-nose-l-a-county-seeks-tens-of-thousands-in-fines-for-pastor-john-macarthur" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">embattled congregation</a> what their legal counsel described as a &#8220;setback&#8221; in their <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/l-a-county-seeks-restraining-order-against-john-macarthur-and-church-after-lawsuit" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">ongoing fight</a> to resume <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/compliance-would-be-disobedience-prominent-california-church-defies-state-lockdown-to-resume-in-person-assembly" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">in-person assembly</a>.
MacArthur and Grace Community Church’s attorneys from the Thomas More Society said Superior Court Judge Mitchell L. Beckloff &#8220;refused to consider their important separation of powers arguments &#8216;in any meaningful fashion&#8217; and essentially &#8216;ducked the issue,'&#8221; according to statements provided to The Daily Wire.
The judge&#8217;s <a href="https://www.thomasmoresociety.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/20stcv30695-Ruling-on-order-granting-PI.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">order</a> prohibits the church from &#8220;conducting, participating in, or attending any indoor worship services&#8221; and also demands any outdoor worship is to be conducted in full compliance with the county&#8217;s rules regarding masks and social distancing.
&#8220;While the court is mindful that there is no substitute for indoor worship in the &#8216;spiritual refuge&#8217; of a sanctuary,&#8221; the order said in part, &#8220;the court cannot ignore the County Health Order does not dictate a ban on worship. Instead, it provides any worship must take place other than indoors. The County Health Order allows worship to occur outdoors, virtually through the internet and in any manner that is not indoors with a large gathering of people.&#8221;
The Los Angeles County Superior Court had ruled on Aug. 23 that no court order exists prohibiting Grace Community Church from gathering in-person, despite conflicting rulings from lower courts, as The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/l-a-superior-court-upholds-right-of-john-macarthurs-church-to-gather-in-person" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">reported</a>. Since then, Los Angeles County <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/this-is-harassment-la-county-terminates-parking-lot-lease-of-john-macarthurs-church" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">terminated a parking lot lease</a> it had with the church for 45 years and fined them $1,000 for an alleged sign violation.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
MacArthur said, &#8220;In an inexplicable ruling, the judge said the ‘scale tipped in favor of the county.’ 1/100th of 1% of Californians with a virus apparently wins over the U.S. Constitution and religious freedom for all? That is not what our founders said. Nor is that what God says, who gave us our rights that our government—including the judicial branch—is supposed to protect. The scale should always tip in favor of liberty, especially for churches.”
Special counsel Charles LiMandri said he was &#8220;disappointed in the ruling,&#8221; adding:
<blockquote>[T]he court did not apply the strict scrutiny analysis to the government order that we believe is required by the California Constitution and legal precedent. The court also did not properly consider the medical and scientific evidence that the current number of people with serious COVID-19 symptoms no longer justifies a shuttering of the churches. Nor do we believe that the court gave adequate consideration to the fact that churches have been treated as second-class citizens compared to the tens of thousands of protestors. More than ever, California’s churches are essential. Therefore, we plan to appeal this ruling to ultimately vindicate our clients’ constitutionally protected right to free exercise of religion.”</blockquote>
Special counsel Jenna Ellis described the ruling as &#8220;a temporary setback,&#8221; but maintained that neither MacArthur, the church, nor their lawyers plan to give up the fight.
“While the judge did go out of his way to repeatedly state that he is not ruling on the merits, only a ruling at this very preliminary stage, Pastor MacArthur is still harmed because he has every right to hold church Church is essential, and no government agent has the runaway, unlimited power to force churches to close indefinitely,&#8221; Ellis said.
&#8220;The County’s argument was basically ‘because we can,’ which is the very definition of tyranny. Without limiting government’s power in favor of freedom and protected rights, we have no liberty. We will fight for religious freedom, as our founders did when they wrote the First Amendment,&#8221; she added.

An airline pilot landing at Los Angeles International Airport on Sunday reported seeing &#8220;a guy in a jetpack&#8221; flying about 300 yards off his plane&#8217;s wing — at an altitude of 3,000 feet.
The pilot was on his final approach to the busy airport and was about 10 miles from the tarmac.
The American Airlines pilot radioed his sighting in to the flight control tower: &#8220;Tower, American 1997, we just passed a guy in a jetpack.&#8221;
&#8220;American 1997, okay, were they off to your left side or right side?&#8221; the air traffic controller asked.
&#8220;Off the left side, maybe 300 yards or so, about our altitude,&#8221; the pilot said, FOX-11 <a href="https://www.foxla.com/news/airline-pilot-reports-seeing-guy-in-jetpack-near-aircraft-while-approaching-lax-runway">reported</a>.
A second pilot also reported seeing the jetpack guy. Fox 11 reported a Skywest pilot confirmed the sighting:
<blockquote>Skywest Flight: &#8220;We just saw the guy passing by us in the jetpack.&#8221;
Then the tower alerted an incoming Jet Blue flight to the reported hazard:
Tower: &#8220;Jet Blue 23, use caution, a person in a jetpack reported 300 yards south of the LA final at about 3,000 feet, 10 mile final.&#8221;
Jet Blue 23: &#8220;Jet Blue 23, we heard and we are definitely looking.&#8221;
Another pilot chimed in: &#8220;Only in L.A.&#8221;</blockquote>
Most jetpacks can&#8217;t fly that fast or that high, but Yves &#8220;Jetman&#8221; Rossi&#8217;s winged jetpack, which launches from a helicopter, can do so. No one knows if the jetpack guy near LAX was doing some sort of publicity stunt, but officials are investigating the reports.
The incident in L.A. follows another last month, when at least two reporters traveling on Air Force One said the presidential plane had a near miss with what appeared to be a drone.
&#8220;Multiple people on AF1 saw what appeared to be a drone just below the plane as we were descending toward Joint Base Andrews,&#8221; Jennifer Jacobs, senior White House reporter for Bloomberg News, wrote on Twitter. &#8220;We came very close to hitting it, per @SebastianAFP, who had a window seat.&#8221;

&#8220;The fact that a drone can come so close to the world&#8217;s highest-profile and most heavily monitored and defended variant of a commercial aircraft is troubling for obvious reasons. As we have said for many years, one of the biggest threats posed by lower-end drones is to VVIPs, and especially when they are on the move,&#8221; wrote TheDrive.com, which first <a href="https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/35763/air-force-one-just-had-a-near-miss-with-a-drone-according-to-reporter-onboard">reported</a> the incident.
Trump was on board Air Force One as it landed at Andrews Air Force base on Aug. 16. The president was returning from Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey, when the reported near-collision happened.
Regulations governing unmanned flying objects have been enacted by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) so drones can be tracked. The FAA also lays out what drone operators can do near airports.

Los Angeles County terminated a parking lot rental lease it held with Grace Community Church last week, an act that legal counsel for the church is describing as harassment and retaliation for having disobeyed the city&#8217;s coronavirus lockdown order.
In an Aug. 28 letter provided to The Daily Wire, Los Angeles County&#8217;s Department of Public Works gave Grace Community Church 30 days&#8217; notice that its lease for the parking lot was over and warned that any private property left on the premises after Oct. 1 would be confiscated. The church had been leasing a large portion of their lot from the county for 45 years, for which they paid $24,904.23 quarterly.
Grace Community Church has been wrangling in courts with Los Angeles County government since July, when Pastor John MacArthur and the church elders released a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/compliance-would-be-disobedience-prominent-california-church-defies-state-lockdown-to-resume-in-person-assembly" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">statement</a> explaining why they were no longer going to comply with coronavirus lockdown orders forbidding in-person assembly.
After the county sought a temporary restraining order against MacArthur and the church, the Los Angeles County Superior Court <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/l-a-superior-court-upholds-right-of-john-macarthurs-church-to-gather-in-person" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">ruled</a> on Aug. 20 that no court order exists that prohibits them from gathering in-person, despite conflicting rulings from lower courts. On Aug. 25, the Superior Court denied a request from the county for a renewed restraining order, claiming it did not meet statutory requirements.
Thomas More Society special counsel Jenna Ellis, an attorney for the church, told The Daily Wire, &#8220;Los Angeles County is retaliating against Grace Community Church for simply exercising their constitutionally protected right to hold church and challenging an unreasonable, unlawful health order. In America, we have a judicial system to ensure that the executive branch does not abuse its power, and Grace Community Church has every right to be heard without fear of reprisal.&#8221;
&#8220;The Democrats&#8217; message to Americans is clear—if you don&#8217;t bow to every whim of tyranny, the government will come after you,&#8221; she continued. &#8220;The Church has peacefully held this lease for 45 years and the only reason the County is attempting eviction is because John MacArthur stood up to their unconstitutional power grab. This is harassment, abusive, and unconscionable.&#8221;
Other California churches have been reeling from the state&#8217;s lockdown orders on houses of worship and other establishments authorities deem non-essential. As The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/i-plead-with-you-back-off-california-church-fined-thousands-for-meeting-in-person-and-singing" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">reported</a>, agents from Santa Clara County went into North Valley Baptist Church during its services recently to see if congregants were singing. In a four-page notice that was later plastered on its door, the church was informed that it was being fined $10,000 for holding two indoor services during which singing took place.
&#8220;This activity is unlawful,&#8221; the notice stated. &#8220;The county understands that singing is an intimate and meaningful component of religious worship. However, public health experts have also determined that singing together in close proximity and without face coverings transmits virus particles further in the air than breathing or speaking quietly.&#8221;
In a Facebook video that racked up millions of views, Senior Pastor Jack Trieber pleaded with state and local authorities to &#8220;back off,&#8221; adding, &#8220;Though health is [of the] utmost importance, spiritual health is supreme. Because we’ve been locked out in this county of churches, suicide is up, domestic violence, addiction is up, homelessness is up, alcoholism is up. We need to get back to worshiping God. I am commanded to worship God.&#8221;
Correction: An earlier version of this story incorrectly said that Grace Community Church pays $24,904.23 for its lease annually, which is the amount they pay quarterly.
