  Good morning. This is the Sacramento Brief, your
• 0:08
  weekday roundup of overnight headlines and what's
• 0:11
  ahead across the city. I'm Carol. It's Monday,
• 0:15
  August 10th, 2026. Let's get you caught up. We
• 0:19
  begin with a wild pursuit through Sacramento
• 0:21
  County yesterday evening that ended with a crash,
• 0:23
  a pit maneuver, and a sheriff's canine taking
• 0:26
  down the suspect. The pursuit unfolded around
• 0:29
  7 .30 p .m. Sunday night and reportedly stretched
• 0:31
  across multiple areas with at least one collision
• 0:34
  along the way. It eventually came to an end near
• 0:37
  Gloria and Rush River Drives. where law enforcement
• 0:41
  successfully used a pit maneuver to stop the
• 0:43
  fleeing vehicle. The suspect was then bitten
• 0:46
  by a law enforcement canine while being taken
• 0:49
  into custody. No additional information has been
• 0:52
  released regarding the suspect's condition or
• 0:54
  what initially prompted the pursuit. Elsewhere
• 0:57
  in Sacramento, where a domestic violence call
• 1:01
  turned into a barricade situation Saturday afternoon,
• 1:04
  Sacramento police responded to the 1 ,000 block
• 1:07
  of 43rd Avenue. Shortly after 1230 p .m., for
• 1:12
  reports of a domestic violence -related incident,
• 1:14
  police say the suspect, who had an outstanding
• 1:17
  felony warrant, barricaded themselves inside
• 1:20
  the residence and refused to surrender. Crisis
• 1:23
  negotiators and the department's SWAT team were
• 1:25
  deployed as officers worked to bring the situation
• 1:28
  to a peaceful conclusion. The suspect was ultimately
• 1:31
  arrested. And Sacramento police are investigating
• 1:35
  a shooting that happened in broad daylight on
• 1:37
  Friday afternoon. Officers responded around 2
• 1:40
  p .m. to the Shell gas station, the 5500 block,
• 1:44
  excuse me, the 5500 block of Martin Luther King
• 1:47
  Jr. Boulevard. Police found evidence of a shooting
• 1:51
  had occurred. But the suspect or suspects had
• 1:55
  already fled the scene before officers arrived.
• 1:57
  Fortunately, no injuries were reported and the
• 2:01
  investigation was conducted and police report
• 2:03
  generated. Today's weather. After last week's
• 2:08
