At some of the fast-food restaurants, employees were juicing up to 300 pounds of lemons a day. It is a job that employee Dana Shifflett said nobody wanted. “It was a lot of work. It was very tedious,” Shifflett said.

    The Los Angeles Rams know football fans from around the world will be tuning in to see the NFL draft Thursday night, so they've temporarily moved into one of LA's fire stations in Van Nuys to shine a spotlight on the first responders who fought the wildfires earlier this year. Most people don't get to see the LA Fire Department's air operations, because firefighters are constantly moving aircraft in and out responding to emergency calls and taking part in training exercises.

    Customers in Los Angeles County could see their bills a bit higher starting Tuesday, as sales tax across the county will increase. On April 1, sales tax in LA County will go up from 9.5% to 9.75%. Voters approved the increase back in November 2024. Measure A calls for the sales tax on items like clothing, toys and furniture to go up by half a cent, but since it replaces the temporary quarter cent tax that had in place under Measure H, there will only be a quarter cent raise starting Tuesday.
