• 0:11
  ahead across the city. I'm Carol. It's Monday,
• 0:16
  June 22nd, 2026. Let's get you caught up. An
• 0:20
  18 -year -old man is recovering after being shot
• 0:22
  early Saturday morning in Old Sacramento. Just
• 0:25
  after 2 a .m., Sacramento police officers heard
• 0:28
  gunfire near Firehouse Alley and K Street. Although
• 0:32
  officers initially only found evidence of a shooting,
• 0:35
  a short time later, an 18 -year -old man arrived
• 0:37
  at a Natomas fire station suffering from a non
• 0:40
  -life -threatening gunshot wound. investigators
• 0:43
  determined he was involved in the old Sacramento
• 0:46
  shooting. Police arrested the man on an outstanding
• 0:48
  felony warrant and for being a felon in possession
• 0:52
  of ammunition. The investigation remains ongoing.
• 0:57
  Another Sacramento man is facing multiple felony
• 1:00
  charges after police say he stole a marked patrol
• 1:04
  car and led officers on an hour -long pursuit
• 1:07
  Friday afternoon. The incident began near Mearsville
• 1:10
  Boulevard and South Avenue when officers responded
• 1:13
  to a vandalism call. Police said the suspect
• 1:16
  stole the patrol car before leading officers
• 1:18
  south on Highway 99. The California Highway Patrol
• 1:22
  eventually took over the pursuit, which ended
• 1:24
  near Lodi. 28 -year -old Isaac Pavel of Sacramento
• 1:28
  now faces eight felony charges, including assault
• 1:31
  with a deadly weapon, felon in possession of
• 1:33
  a firearm, and unlawfully taking a vehicle. And
• 1:37
  elsewhere in Sacramento, officers recovered a
• 1:40
  stolen Vespa on Power Inn Road after discovering
• 1:42
  it had both stolen license plate and a stolen
• 1:46
  VIN number. The rider was arrested. Meanwhile,
• 1:51
  in South Sacramento, a violent crime reduction
• 1:53
  team observed what appeared to be a hand -to
• 1:57
  -hand drug transaction near Broadway and 19th
• 1:59
  Street. During the investigation, officers recovered
• 2:03
  an illegally possessed loaded firearm and marijuana,
• 2:07
  leading to another arrest. In City Watch, Sacramento
• 2:12
  County is expanding its Residential Development
• 2:14
  Impact Fee Deferral Program in an effort to encourage
• 2:18
  more housing construction. The Board of Supervisors
• 2:21
  has approved expanding the program to include
• 2:24
  all residential developments, including certain
• 2:27
  mixed -use housing projects. The change allows
• 2:30
  developers to delay paying certain impact fees
• 2:33
  until later in the construction process, reducing
• 2:36
  upfront costs while helping move housing projects
• 2:39
  forward more quickly. The proposed ordinance
• 2:42
  returns to the Board for final consideration
• 2:45
  on July 14th. And the Sacramento Regional Transit
• 2:50
  District, SACRT, has extended another year of
