  Good morning. This is the Sacramento Brief, your

  weekday roundup of overnight headlines and what's

  Back in August, an elderly victim in Sacramento
• 0:23
  County was scammed out of over $28 ,000 through
• 0:26
  an online scheme. Detectives worked the case
• 0:30
  with precision, and on September 17th, they arrested
• 0:33
  36 -year -old Baldwin Der Singh of Yuba City,
• 0:36
  booking him on multiple felony theft charges.
• 0:40
  Scams like this are a reminder, always verify
• 0:42
  who you're talking to online, and never send
• 0:45
  money to someone you don't personally know and
• 0:48
  trust. If something feels wrong, pause and protect
• 0:51
  yourself. In City Watch, a press release has

  been issued by the Sacramento County's Voter
