Larry Altman at the Daily Breeze reports that suspects in the Playa del Rey home burglary I posted photos of the other day were apprehended after an attempted burglary in Redondo Beach last Thursday.

This and more photos (after the jump) are from during reported home burglary that occurred around 1pm on August 17th on the 7900 block of 81st Street of Playa del Rey.

Two black males, in their teens or early 20s, and a white 4 door car are shown in the stills.

David Coffin from the community blog Westchester Parents (where the pix were originally posted) tells me he believes the shot here came from a “nanny cam.” All I know is this single home apparently has more surveillance cameras than my apartment complex. Hopefully it will pay off with an arrest.

If you recognize the above individual or his partner in the additional photos, contact the LAPD Pacific Division at 310-482-6313, referencing case #081424066. Read the rest of this entry →

A few weeks ago I took these photos of the sunset and moon over the Port of Los Angeles / Long Beach. I took it from a really cool hidden park in San Pedro. Guess where the park is and you win!

A couple more shots after the jump, and even more on flickr or eecue.com.

In two unrelated incidents, two men were found at the bottom of San Pedro’s Point Fermin cliffs today, in what LAPD believes to be suicide attempts, according to the Daily Breeze.

A police chopper spotted the first body today around noon, and when fire and paremedic crews arrived they stumbled across the second body. One man is reported as having died, while the other is in critical condition.

It’s been crazy down here in Pt Fermin, apparently 2 people have tried to commit suicide. One is dead. Police say the 2 are totally unrelated. It’s been nothing but chaos outside my house with 6 helicopters in the sky and a dozen fire trucks, paramedics, etc.
