South Los Angeles Evacuations Lifted After Bomb Squad Clears Massive Illegal Fireworks Cache

Authorities evacuated a South Los Angeles neighborhood after police found a large cache of illegal fireworks at a home during a firearm-related domestic-violence warrant; the LAPD bomb squad safely moved the stockpile—five box trucks were loaded for disposal—allowing residents to return once it was deemed safe. The seizure is valued at $150,000 to $200,000, and one person linked to the warrant was arrested. The incident follows a 2021 South L.A. fireworks detonation mishap and a 2024 settlement related to that event.

Police activity causes evacuation and traffic delays at LAX Terminal 1.

Portions of LAX terminals were evacuated after a suspicious package was found before an official TSA security checkpoint. Passengers in Terminals 1 and 1.5 were evacuated, and vehicle traffic was diverted from the upper and lower levels. An LAPD bomb squad has been dispatched to the scene, and no flights have been affected so far. Traffic is severely backed up on the freeway and surface roads leading to the airport's arrivals and departures areas. Details remain limited, and the possible contents of the suspicious package have not been released.
