The investigation continues into the massacre that left 11 people dead and others wounded in a California dance hall. Last night there was a candlelight vigil in memory of the eleven victims in the worst mass shooting in Los Angeles County history. And as Jim Moret reports at other ballroom dance centers across America, patrons remain jittery. And truth challenged Republican Congressman George Santos has become the butt of late night jokes - being parodied on Saturday Night Live and elsewhere. But maybe Santos shouldn’t have commented about it. After he tweeted that his imitators were terrible, the mockery has escalated. Plus, we've told you how catalytic converter theft is on the rise - they're extremely easy to steal and are made with high-value precious metals. However, one thief messed with the wrong car owner. As Les Trent reports, when he saw a guy with a buzz saw under his car, he fought back. And she's the highest earning female college athlete with quite a rowdy fan base...but what's it like to be at a gymnastics meet with LSU's Olivia Dunne? Well, we went to experience Livvy mania firsthand.    To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
