• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Amy King, on demand on the iHeartRadio app.

  Speaker 2: KFI and KOST HD2 Los Angeles, Orange County.

  Speaker 3: Now batting for Wake Up Call, your.
• 0:17
  Speaker 4: Host, Amy King.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: Good morning. It's 5 o'clock straight up. This is your
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: wake-up call for Monday, October 5th. I'm Amy King. We're
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. Hot enough for you?
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: We are not done with the heat yet. Although I
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: will say, yesterday didn't feel as hot as Saturday. I mean,
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Saturday was just scorching, at least where I was. I mean,
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: it's still super hot. And it's going to stay that
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: way all week. So hope your air conditioner is working.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: There's something that cooled down and that was the Dodgers
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: last night.
• 1:08
  Speaker 5: Bummed.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: Bummed. But we're still one and one. And then of course,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Anne's Padres. I was even rooting for them, Anne. I
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: was rooting for them yesterday. I thought they had it
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: in the bag. Thank you, Amy. That's very sweet of you.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Well, you know what though? We can come back because
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: they're headed to San Diego. Dodgers are headed to Atlanta.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: We've got more action tomorrow. I'm still wearing my Dodger
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: blue we're representing. We can do it. We can both
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: do it. But then, well, at least into the championships.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: Wouldn't that be fun? A Dodgers Padres series?
• 1:43
  Speaker 6: No.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: Oh, okay. All right. Here's what's ahead on Wake Up Call.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: Temperature records have been falling in L.A. and Orange County.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: As a heat wave grips Southern California, highs in the
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: 90s to about 105 are expected to continue through at
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: least Thursday. Officials have been urging residents to conserve electricity
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: as much as possible to avoid any power shutoffs. Detectives
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: continue to search for the person who shot and killed
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: two young people at a strip mall near Cal State Northridge.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: The shooting happened around 11 p.m. Friday at a party
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: attended by about 200 people. The people killed were 18
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: and 19 years old. Police have not released a description
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: of the suspect. Fares are going up today on Metrolink.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Fares for one-way tickets and the SoCal Day Pass increased today.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: It's the first fare increase in 13 years. One-way ticket
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: prices are going up an average of 14%. Metrolink says
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: the Day Pass will cost $ 19 on weekdays and $ 12
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: on weekends and holidays. That's a big jump. That's a
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: big jump. A botched execution has officials in Tennessee taking
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: a look at everything because this wasn't the first time
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: it happened. ABC's Jim Ryan on whether they're going to
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: try it again or call it off completely. We're learning
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: more about the co-pilot who repeatedly stabbed his captain, allegedly,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: and almost single-handedly brought down an airplane with more than
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: 150 people on board. ABC's Jordana Miller in Jerusalem is
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: going to join us with the latest on that in
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: just a couple of minutes. October 4th to the 10th
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: is Fire Prevention Week. And this year, the focus is
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: a little bit different. We're going to be talking with
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Kelly Ransdell with the National Fire Prevention Association. I'm pretty
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: sure you'll get a charge out of this one. Let's
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: get started with some of the stories coming out of
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: the KFI 24-hour newsroom. The operator of California's power grid
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: has called for conservation as more triple-digit heat is in
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: the forecast. Conservation would help reduce strain on the system.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: The California Independent System Operator has issued what it calls
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: a restricted maintenance operations notice to utilities for today and
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: tomorrow to avoid impacting power generating and transmission. A flex
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: alert is possible for customers. That's a call for voluntary
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: conservation when the demand for electricity exceeds the available supply.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: News brought to you by American Vision Windows. Police looking
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: for the person who killed a young man and a
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: young woman at a large party in Northridge.
• 4:18
  Speaker 7: The LAPD says officers were called to a loud party
• 4:21
  Speaker 7: with up to 200 people taking place at a strip
• 4:24
  Speaker 7: mall on Nordhoff Street near Reseda Boulevard at around 11
• 4:27
  Speaker 7: o'clock Friday night. They were in the process of trying
• 4:30
  Speaker 7: to shut down the party when they heard gunshots. Officers
• 4:33
  Speaker 7: found an 18-year-old man and a 19-year-old woman shot to death.
• 4:37
  Speaker 7: No arrests have been made. Police have not released a
• 4:40
  Speaker 7: description of the shooter. Eileen Gonzalez, KFI News.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: An alleged Chinese spy has been arrested at LAX. The
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: real estate agent from Irvine has been accused of acting
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: as an unregistered agent for the Chinese government and surveilling
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: a relative of a high-ranking Taiwanese official. The feds say
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: Heather Zhang was taken into custody by FBI agents yesterday
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: while trying to board a flight for China. A new
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: poll shows Steve Hilton is gaining on Javier Becerra in
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: the race for governor of California.
• 5:11
  Speaker 6: A new poll says Becerra's lead over his Republican challenger,
• 5:15
  Speaker 6: Steve Hilton, is shrinking. The poll surveyed about 1,000 voters
• 5:18
  Speaker 6: in California and was commissioned by the Hilton campaign. The
• 5:21
  Speaker 6: poll says that Becerra is getting about 45% support compared
• 5:24
  Speaker 6: with Hilton's 40%. The poll also shows that nearly one
• 5:28
  Speaker 6: in seven voters are still undecided with just weeks until
• 5:31
  Speaker 6: the November 3rd election. Jason Campadonia, KFI News.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: And a dog trapped in a vehicle that plunged off
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: PCH onto the rocks and into the surf north of
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: Malibu has been rescued. The Ventura County Fire Department said
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: the single vehicle crash happened Saturday along PCH near Deer
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: Creek Road. The driver was able to get out of
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: the vehicle and got one of two dogs out, but
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: the other dog was trapped. A firefighter and lifeguards freed
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: the dog and carried it back to safety. Love to
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: hear that. Where we need to go now is to
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: ABC's Jim Ryan. Jim, the execution in Tennessee went from
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: being historic, since it was supposed to be the first
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: woman executed in 200 years, to a huge controversial mess.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: What's the latest?
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: Yes, you're right.
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: I think a lot more eyes were on this case
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: because Krista Pike would have been the first woman put
• 6:26
  Speaker 5: to death by Tennessee in a couple of centuries. And
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: so a lot of people were monitoring this case. The
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: witness room was full of people who watched as the
• 6:36
  Speaker 5: staff there at the prison in Tennessee tried to establish
• 6:40
  Speaker 5: an IV line in Krista Pike's arm. She actually was
• 6:44
  Speaker 5: helping them, telling them, look, try this vein over here,
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: try that one. According to the attorneys for Krista Pike,
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: they tried seven different needles and just couldn't find the vein.
• 6:53
  Speaker 5: They thought they had it established, but apparently it was
• 6:57
  Speaker 5: feeding pentobarbital not into the artery or the vein in
• 7:01
  Speaker 5: her arm, but into the skin and the muscle. So
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: it was enough of a dose of pentobarbital to knock
• 7:08
  Speaker 5: her out, but not enough to kill her. And that
• 7:10
  Speaker 5: was the goal here, to put her to death for
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: a homicide committed back in 1995. She now, as we're told, Amy,
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: is in the hospital. She's on a ventilator, essentially on
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: life support. Doctors are trying to save her life, ironically,
• 7:23
  Speaker 5: a week after she was supposed to be.
• 7:25
  Speaker 8: Put to death.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: Which is so bizarre. I mean, I would just think,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: you would think she's going to be executed, theoretically, take
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: off life support.
• 7:40
  Speaker 8: Well, sure.
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: Um, Would that satisfy the sentence, though? Does that satisfy
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: the death sentence?
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: Does that satisfy killing her? Something like this.
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: Well, right.
• 7:51
  Speaker 6: It does.
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: I mean, she'd be dead, of course. But they want
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: to try to follow protocol. They want to try to
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: follow the law. And this is not following the law
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: if she's allowed to die because of this. So, yeah,
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: they're trying to keep her alive for whatever next step
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: might be. Now, it's possible, according to physicians who have
• 8:08
  Speaker 5: looked at this case from the outside, that she's going
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: to have such severe brain damage from the pentobarbital that
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: she did receive that that she's going to be hospitalized
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: for the rest of her life.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: And that could go on for years. It's just it's
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: so counterintuitive. So what are the options? Say she does
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: wake up. What are the options?
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: Well, she's not going to be put to death anytime soon,
• 8:31
  Speaker 5: if that's what the governor orders. There was a case
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: in May. Tony Carruthers was to be put to death
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: there in Tennessee. The staff did establish one IV line,
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: but under protocol, they couldn't get a second one. They
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: had to have two IV lines established. They could only
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: get one. And because the second one could not be established,
• 8:51
  Speaker 5: it was called off. And the governor says it'll be
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: at least a year before Tony Carruthers is put to death.
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: And in fact, he's called off the only other execution
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: that was supposed to happen before the end of this
• 9:02
  Speaker 5: year to allow for an investigation. State lawmakers and death
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: penalty advocates and death penalty opponents are demanding to know
• 9:11
  Speaker 5: what happened in this case.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: I just feel like we've all left a little common
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: sense behind in all of this. So Krista Pyke, Her
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: lawyer now wants the sentence commuted.
• 9:25
  Speaker 8: Yes.
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: Now, will that happen?
• 9:26
  Speaker 8: Don't know.
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: But that's his argument. He wants to see this essentially
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: called off, right? The case was really a nasty one.
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: Krista Pike is 50 now. She was 18 years old
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: when she and her boyfriend tortured and then killed a
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: girl named Colleen Slemmer. Now, Pike was 18. Her boyfriend
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: was only 17. So he couldn't be charged with a
• 9:48
  Speaker 5: capital crime the way she was. He was sent to
• 9:51
  Speaker 5: prison for life, but she was sent to death row.
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: One of the youngest women ever to be sent to
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: death row in Tennessee or anywhere else. That's sort of
• 9:59
  Speaker 5: the basis. for the sentence that was imposed. Her family,
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: now the family of Colleen Slemmer, is furious that this
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: execution was botched. They feel that they have not yet
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: seen justice for Slemmer. Yeah.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: All right. ABC's Jim Ryan, thanks. It just seems like
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: they would know how to get this right. But we
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: will keep watching it. Because as I mentioned, it went
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: from an execution that was supposed to be historic to
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: a big, huge mess. Thank you so much, Jim.
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: For a different reason.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah. All right. Take care. And just think of all
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: the additional money that's going to be spent on this
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: to one, try to keep this woman alive and then
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: try to either have her executed eventually or get her
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: sentence commuted. It's just, it seems crazy to me. Let's
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: get back to some of the stories coming out of
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: the KFI 24-hour newsroom. Israel says it plans to review
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: security around foreign flights to Israel following the attempted hijacking
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: of a fly Dubai flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: Officials in the Middle East say authorities in the United
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: Arab Emirates had shared a list of passengers and crew
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: with Israel ahead of the flight in which the captain
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: was stabbed by the co-pilot. Preliminary details have highlighted several
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: major security lapses. Officials say the Omani co-pilot had been
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: barred from flying by his own country because of his
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: extremist views. A Saudi-led coalition says an air campaign has
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: started against Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen. The head of
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: Yemen's Presidential Leadership Council announced the operation from Saudi Arabia.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: He called for international support to recover territories that are
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: now controlled by the Houthis. They made their largest land
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: grab in recent years last month when they seized Yemen's
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: Red Sea coast and the Bab al-Mandeb Strait. They've been
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: targeting government forces and their allies. A child has been
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: stabbed to death walking along a sidewalk on Chicago's South Side.
• 12:01
  Speaker 9: Seven-year-old A. Marie Hernandez Chacon was enjoying a sunny fall
• 12:04
  Speaker 9: Saturday afternoon when Chicago police say she was stabbed in
• 12:08
  Speaker 9: the back several times by a woman she did not know.
• 12:11
  Speaker 9: It happened near a barbershop where William Smith works and
• 12:13
  Speaker 9: tells NBC Chicago he heard others yelling.
• 12:16
  Speaker 6: That's the lady that did it.
• 12:17
  Speaker 10: She's trying to run.
• 12:18
  Speaker 6: She's trying to get away.
• 12:19
  Speaker 9: Police say bystanders detained the woman. Smith says of what
• 12:22
  Speaker 9: took place.
• 12:23
  Speaker 6: I don't know, but that was just, it was just terrible.
• 12:26
  Speaker 11: I've never seen anything.
• 12:27
  Speaker 6: Like that happen, ever.
• 12:29
  Speaker 9: An investigation is underway. I'm Jennifer Kuiper, KFI News.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: A new CDC study finds more people with the flu
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: stop isolating while they may still be contagious. Researchers found
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: most people ended isolation about four days after their symptoms started,
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: and only about 5% stayed away from the community for
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: the full recommended period. The CDC says people can return
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: to normal activities once symptoms have been improving for at
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: least 24 hours and they've been fever-free without medication. Louisiana
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: Senator John Kennedy says he's considering a run for president
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: in 2028. The Republican told NBC's Meet the Press he
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: hasn't made a decision. Kennedy says he could consider a
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: White House bid if he doesn't like the Republican field
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: and thinks he could do a better job.
• 13:18
  Speaker 10: My plans right now are to run for re-election. But
• 13:23
  Speaker 10: as I've said before, if I don't think I can
• 13:26
  Speaker 10: be effective in the Senate anymore, I would consider it.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: Kennedy declined to compare himself with Vice President J.D. Vance,
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: saying he's just not there yet. But he says he
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: thinks both parties would benefit from having a full field
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: of candidates. Crews have made some progress in their battle
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: against a 1,048-acre fire near Santa Clarita. The Bouquet Fire
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: broke out Saturday afternoon on Bouquet Canyon Road in the
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: Angeles National Forest area. It's 48% surrounded as of this morning.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: Evacuations are still in place, and a shelter is open
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: at the Ryan M. Klinkenbrumer Sports Complex in Castaic. The
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: search has ended for six people missing in the crash
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: of a medical evacuation jet off the coast of Massachusetts.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: Search and recovery crews found a debris field on Saturday
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: night in the waters near Nantucket. A crew of four,
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: a patient, and a family member were headed from Bermuda
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: to Boston when the plane went down. California's lottery jackpots
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: are soaring along with the heat. The jackpot for tonight's
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: Powerball is up to $ 467 million since no one matched
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: all six winning numbers Saturday night. The Mega Millions drawing
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: is worth $ 345 million tomorrow night. Let's say good morning
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: now to ABC's Jordana Miller in Jerusalem. So, Jordana, we're
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: finding out a little bit more about this co-pilot of
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: the fly Dubai flight that almost brought down a plane
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: single handedly last week.
• 14:55
  Speaker 8: A lot of disturbing details coming out of the investigation.
• 15:00
  Speaker 8: First of all, we've identified the co-pilot attacker, terrorist, some
• 15:06
  Speaker 8: are calling him here in Israel. His name is Hammam al-Hammami.
• 15:11
  Speaker 8: He is 29 years old, born in Oman, Omani father,
• 15:15
  Speaker 8: Syrian mother. We've learned from sources close to the investigation
• 15:20
  Speaker 8: that he once flew for Omani Air, and he was
• 15:25
  Speaker 8: grounded there, taken out of the cockpit by the company
• 15:29
  Speaker 8: because they had found radicalized materials in his possession, and
• 15:36
  Speaker 8: they moved him from flying to an office job. He
• 15:40
  Speaker 8: left that job and moved to the Emiratis and applied
• 15:46
  Speaker 8: and joined Fly Dubai less than a year ago. And
• 15:52
  Speaker 8: from the investigation, from sources close to the investigation, we've
• 15:57
  Speaker 8: now learned that the attacker intended to hijack the plane
• 16:04
  Speaker 8: and crash it into Tel Aviv's Ben Gurion International Airport. Remember,
• 16:12
  Speaker 8: at that airport, there are dozens of U.S. refueling military aircraft.
• 16:20
  Speaker 8: There are reports here in Israel that we are trying
• 16:23
  Speaker 8: to confirm that this pilot, co-pilot, had already flown the
• 16:31
  Speaker 8: route at least once into Israel from Dubai. And he
• 16:37
  Speaker 8: was kind of collecting intelligence is the report here. We
• 16:41
  Speaker 8: are trying to confirm that. We have one source on
• 16:44
  Speaker 8: that that has confirmed those details. We're waiting for a
• 16:48
  Speaker 8: second one. But I bring it up because until recently,
• 16:54
  Speaker 8: this was seen as an attack against Israelis, 9-11 style attack.
• 17:02
  Speaker 8: that was averted at the last minute, as we know,
• 17:04
  Speaker 8: by very brave and heroic group of people, to the passengers, right,
• 17:14
  Speaker 8: and to the pilots that were on the plane that
• 17:17
  Speaker 8: landed it. But now, knowing that this pilot was targeting
• 17:23
  Speaker 8: the airport, it at least raises the question of whether
• 17:27
  Speaker 8: he was actually going to target those U.S. aircraft and
• 17:31
  Speaker 8: could this have been a larger attack? He's in custody.
• 17:35
  Speaker 8: He's being the United Arab Emirates is leading the investigation.
• 17:40
  Speaker 8: The Israelis are there on the ground. We don't know
• 17:43
  Speaker 8: if they've interrogated the suspect directly. And, you know, we're
• 17:49
  Speaker 8: waiting for more details, especially, you know, when will we
• 17:54
  Speaker 8: know what's on those black boxes?
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: And then have any ties to a rancid or fist?
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: I just heard this morning that they're saying the guy
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: acted alone. He's a lone wolf. But is do we
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: know if that's actually the case?
• 18:09
  Speaker 8: I think it's still unclear whether he acted alone or
• 18:14
  Speaker 8: whether he had ties to either a terror group or
• 18:18
  Speaker 8: he was sent by an enemy state. It's still unclear.
• 18:22
  Speaker 8: That's still being investigated. So we don't really have an
• 18:26
  Speaker 8: answer for that yet.
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: And then one other quick question for you. A lot
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: of people have asked about a weapon and how a
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: knife got onto the flight. Was it a knife or
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: was it the axe in the cockpit or what was it?
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: Or do we know?
• 18:42
  Speaker 8: It was the axe in the cockpit. We know that
• 18:46
  Speaker 8: now from the testimony of the the captain who survived,
• 18:51
  Speaker 8: the Indian captain. It was the axe that is kept
• 18:55
  Speaker 8: in all cockpits that are there in case the pilots
• 19:01
  Speaker 8: have to have you know, break the glass and get
• 19:04
  Speaker 8: out of a cockpit in the case of an emergency.
• 19:08
  Speaker 8: He he took it. He asked the pilot if he
• 19:12
  Speaker 8: could pray. That was his excuse to get up and
• 19:15
  Speaker 8: go behind the captain. And from there, he grabbed the
• 19:21
  Speaker 8: the axe and started to strike him from behind on
• 19:26
  Speaker 8: the neck.
• 19:27
  Speaker 11: Wow.
• 19:27
  Speaker 8: It's crazy.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: It's amazing that because, by the way.
• 19:30
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 19:31
  Speaker 8: It's amazing he survived. He put his hand on his neck.
• 19:35
  Speaker 8: That's how he, his hands, you know, he has a
• 19:38
  Speaker 8: couple of fingers that almost came off because he was
• 19:41
  Speaker 8: smart enough to know to protect his neck. And that's
• 19:44
  Speaker 8: why he put his hands up there. That's a detail
• 19:47
  Speaker 8: we learned from one of the survivors, the Jewish officer.
• 19:50
  Speaker 8: who was on the flight, who saved his life.
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 19:53

• 27:28
  Speaker 1: herskovitz good morning erica.
• 27:31
  Speaker 13: That's how you lead in.
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: Thank you. That's what you got today.
• 27:34
  Speaker 13: That was so weird.
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: So, Erica, if you have an AT & T connected
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: Apple iPhone 18 Pro Max, you have to replace it?
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: You may have to replace it, Amy.
• 27:50
  Speaker 13: Yeah, those iPhone 18 Pro Maxes. AT & T, Apple
• 27:54
  Speaker 13: says that there's a small number of customers that have

  Speaker 13: those phones that had a bug wipe out the ability
• 27:58
  Speaker 13: to make calls and access data or send and receive
• 28:01
  Speaker 13: text messages through the cell phone network. The only fix
• 28:04
  Speaker 13: is swapping the phone out for a new unit with
• 28:07
  Speaker 13: either Apple or AT & T. Apple has issued updates
• 28:10
  Speaker 13: for other iPhone 18 Max Pro users with AT &
• 28:13
  Speaker 13: T who don't yet have that problem. But the high-end phone,
• 28:16
  Speaker 13: it became available just a couple weeks ago, and now
• 28:18
  Speaker 13: already there's been some issues.
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: Okay. Well, good luck fighting with AT & T to
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: get them to swap out your phone. The FAA says
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: a new Boeing 737 MAX has a software glitch, but
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: don't worry about it.
• 28:33
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 28:33
  Speaker 13: So it doesn't pose a flight safety issue. They did
• 28:36
  Speaker 13: a whole bunch of internal investigations. This clears a major
• 28:40
  Speaker 13: hurdle for the planemaker as it is looking to certify
• 28:43
  Speaker 13: a long-delayed version of the jet, The issue can increase
• 28:46
  Speaker 13: the workload for pilots during an aborted landing, but the
• 28:51
  Speaker 13: FAA says pilots maintain full control of the plane. The
• 28:54
  Speaker 13: FAA said last week that it would delay certification on
• 28:57
  Speaker 13: the MAX 10 until the determination on the bug was made.
• 29:00

• 29:15
  Speaker 1: new spark in the industry.
• 29:18
  Speaker 13: Yes, just when it seemed American car buyers had left
• 29:22
  Speaker 13: electric vehicles behind, there are sparks of renewed sales in
• 29:26
  Speaker 13: that corner of the auto market with a backdrop of
• 29:28
  Speaker 13: soaring gas prices. Tesla and Rivian each posted better than
• 29:31
  Speaker 13: expected EV sales for the third quarter. Executives at Hyundai
• 29:35
  Speaker 13: and Ford say dealers are asking for more battery-powered inventory,
• 29:39
  Speaker 13: and some lower-volume models from Toyota and General Motors' Cadillac
• 29:43
  Speaker 13: brand are gaining momentum.
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: Still, U.S.
• 29:45
  Speaker 13: Demand for EVs continues to be limited by the same
• 29:47
  Speaker 13: issues battery-powered cars faced a year ago, including spotty charging infrastructure,
• 29:52
  Speaker 13: high sticker prices, and consumers worried about running out of
• 29:56
  Speaker 13: the juice on the road.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: Yes. What is it called? Range anxiety. It's a real thing.
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: Erica Herskovitz with Bloomberg, getting in your business as we
• 30:04

  Speaker 2: Have a good one.
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: Firefighters have made some progress against a fire burning near
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: Santa Clarita in the Angeles National Forest. The bouquet of
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: fires started Saturday afternoon, spread pretty quickly, prompting evacuation orders
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: and warnings. Those evacuations orders and warnings were are still
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: in place, and the CHP says that Bouquet Canyon Road
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: at Vasquez Canyon is still closed. Still closed. The fire
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: has prompted an air quality alert for parts of L.A.
• 30:34
  Speaker 6: County.
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: Scorching temperatures continue to grip Southern California. Extreme heat warnings
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: continue through Thursday, but the National Weather Service says the
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: heat could stick around even longer than that. Verity had
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: a very good weekend at the box office, opening in
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: first place, $ 36 million in ticket sales. The sexy thriller
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: stars Anne Hathaway and Dakota Johnson. Apparently star power isn't
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: always enough at the movies. Tom Cruise's new political comedy, Digger,
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: opened in fifth place, earning just $ 8 million. Let's say
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: good morning now to the Director of Public Education for
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: the National Fire Prevention Association, Kelly Ransdell. Morning, Kelly.
• 31:18
  Speaker 14: Good morning, Amy.
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: So it is Fire Prevention Week, October 4th through the 10th.
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: And this year, instead of focusing on wildfires or house fires,
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: we're focusing on batteries.
• 31:36
  Speaker 10: Batteries.
• 31:40
  Speaker 7: That's right.
• 31:41
  Speaker 8: It's because it's in every home.
• 31:43
  Speaker 14: It's at our workplaces.
• 31:44
  Speaker 9: It's everywhere.
• 31:45
  Speaker 14: And so these little tiny rechargeable items actually have a
• 31:48
  Speaker 14: fiery side. So that's why this year's theme is focused
• 31:51
  Speaker 14: around lithium-ion batteries.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: It's called Safe Charging is a Superpower. Charge into fire safety.
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: So let's talk about these lithium ion batteries, because when
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: you get the big ones, like in an electric car
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: or something like that, they can really burn and burn
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: and burn. And they're really hard to put out. But
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: you're talking about the little tiny batteries that we all
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: have all over our house.
• 32:16
  Speaker 14: That's right, and people underestimate that actually these little, tiny,
• 32:20
  Speaker 14: powerful batteries, if something were to go wrong with them,
• 32:23
  Speaker 14: they can create big fire. And so we know how
• 32:26
  Speaker 14: to prevent that, and that's why we're focusing on it
• 32:28
  Speaker 14: for this week all across the country.
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: Okay, so let's go through some of the things that
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: we can do, because we're talking about there are batteries
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: in our phones, in our tablets, in our laptops. Tools
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: have them. Toys have them. We've heard of e-bike fires.
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: There was one not too long ago in an apartment
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: in downtown L.A. It was an e-bike or an e-scooter
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: that caused a huge fire in an apartment building. And
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: so we're talking about lots of different kinds of batteries.
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: But there are some good safety tips to make sure
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: that yours stays nice and safe, does its job and
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: doesn't burn your house down.
• 33:08
  Speaker 14: Absolutely, and it really centers around how do you charge them,
• 33:11
  Speaker 14: and that is any of those devices from the little
• 33:14
  Speaker 14: tiny thing like a toothbrush all the way to any
• 33:17
  Speaker 14: rechargeable item all the way up to an e-bike. You
• 33:20
  Speaker 14: want to make sure you use the quarter cable that
• 33:22
  Speaker 14: came with it from the manufacturer. Unfortunately, cheap is not
• 33:26
  Speaker 14: always better. They are very specific to the item, and
• 33:29
  Speaker 14: so if you were to lose one, you want to
• 33:31
  Speaker 14: make sure that you follow manufacturer's instructions and you buy
• 33:34
  Speaker 14: one that's compatible for it because it really does matter.
• 33:38
  Speaker 14: The other thing is they're not designed to stay on
• 33:40
  Speaker 14: the charger all the time. And that's something most people
• 33:43
  Speaker 14: don't realize is when you get to 100% charge, take
• 33:46
  Speaker 14: it off that charger.
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: Okay, so that leads me to something because, Kelly, I've
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: got one of those Belkin chargers that you pop on
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: the back of your phone and it wirelessly charges your phone.
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: One thing I've noticed is half the time it doesn't charge.
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm overcharging it. And the other
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: thing is it gets hot. And I can't imagine that
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: that's a good thing.
• 34:08
  Speaker 14: It's not and so one of the things is you
• 34:10
  Speaker 14: always want to make sure that you buy an item
• 34:13
  Speaker 14: that has been listed. So in the United States that
• 34:16
  Speaker 14: means they meet minimum safety standards. So you can go
• 34:19
  Speaker 14: online and you'll see some of the listings but unfortunately
• 34:23
  Speaker 14: if it gets hot that should be an indicator to
• 34:26
  Speaker 14: you that there may be a problem with that charging
• 34:28
  Speaker 14: because that is not normal for the item that you're
• 34:31
  Speaker 14: using to charge or the device being charged.
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: Okay so I need to go and call Amazon and
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: see if I can return it or something like that. Also,
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: when you charge your batteries, don't do it on the couch.
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 34:48
  Speaker 7: You want to charge.
• 34:49
  Speaker 14: Where you charge matters. That is always on a hard surface.
• 34:53
  Speaker 14: You don't want to charge in bed, on a couch,
• 34:55
  Speaker 14: or on carpet because these batteries, because of the chemical reaction,
• 34:58
  Speaker 14: actually heat up when they're charging. And so if you
• 35:01
  Speaker 14: actually put it on something that doesn't allow it to breathe,
• 35:05
  Speaker 14: it can cause it to overheat and create it to
• 35:07
  Speaker 14: have a problem.
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: Okay, so charging on hard surfaces. And then this seems
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: like it's a no-brainer, but I think that it's important
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: to remember that if you have an e-bike or an e-scooter...
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: Don't charge it inside.
• 35:21
  Speaker 8: Absolutely.
• 35:22
  Speaker 14: We have seen tons of fires that happen because, of course,
• 35:25
  Speaker 14: these are expensive items and people are worried about theft.
• 35:28
  Speaker 14: But unfortunately, they have big fire from little batteries. So
• 35:32
  Speaker 14: you always want to charge an e-bike, e-scooter, any of
• 35:35
  Speaker 14: your power tools outside. You want to put it on
• 35:38
  Speaker 14: a timer and make sure that when it's fully charged
• 35:41
  Speaker 14: that you take it off and not just leave it
• 35:43
  Speaker 14: on the charger away from your exit. So if you
• 35:46
  Speaker 14: have an emergency, you'll be able to get out.
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: OK, and then one last thing I noticed this. We
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: were flying on our last trip. We're flying over the ocean.
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: And before we took off, they said, OK, if you've
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: got a portable charger anywhere with you, get it out
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: of your bags. Don't put it in the bin and
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: keep it sitting next to you on your seat.
• 36:05
  Speaker 8: Absolutely.
• 36:06
  Speaker 14: You'll notice when you check in for a flight, if
• 36:08
  Speaker 14: you're checking bags, they'll say, do you have any spare
• 36:11
  Speaker 14: lithium batteries? You don't want to actually put them in
• 36:13
  Speaker 14: your check bags. And then when you get on board,
• 36:16
  Speaker 14: there's actually prohibitions on how many chargers you can bring
• 36:19
  Speaker 14: on board. But if you are using it to charge
• 36:22
  Speaker 14: your phone while in flight, you want to keep it
• 36:24
  Speaker 14: out in sight. That is always in arm's reach. So
• 36:26
  Speaker 14: if you have an issue, you can let the flight
• 36:28
  Speaker 14: crew know immediately that there's something wrong with your device.
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: They sure make our lives easy, but they can be dangerous,
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: so we need to be careful. Where can we find
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: out more information about this for National Fire Prevention Week, Kelly?
• 36:41
  Speaker 14: You can go to fpw.org slash battery to find out
• 36:44
  Speaker 14: more tips to help you live safely with these rechargeable items.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: Awesome.
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: Director of Public Education for the National Fire Protection Association,
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: Kelly Ransdell, thank you so much for those safety tips.
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: I know that they seem like, you know, we should
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: know these things, but we don't. I was charging on
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: my couch. Right. So I won't be doing that anymore.
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Kelly.
• 37:04
  Speaker 8: Thank you so much for sharing this information.
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: You got it.
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: Let's get back to some of the stories coming out
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: of the KFI 24-hour newsroom. And my charger gets hot.
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: And I think that I'm not using the charger that
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: was provided when I bought it. So I think that
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: I need to make some changes.
• 37:22
  Speaker 6: I mean, charging has always made my stuff a little warm.
• 37:25
  Speaker 3: Not like hot like you smell electronics.
• 37:28
  Speaker 8: No.
• 37:29
  Speaker 6: Just a little subtly warm.
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: I don't know that that's normal either. I don't know. Well,
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: we might have to do some investigating. Oh, boy. A
