Diesel Spill Shuts Down Northbound 710 Freeway in

Diesel Spill Shuts Down Northbound 710 Freeway in Long Beach

LONG BEACH, Calif. — A major diesel spill has forced the closure of all lanes on the northbound 710 Freeway near Del Amo Boulevard in Long Beach, prompting the California Highway Patrol (CHP) to issue a SigAlert early Thursday morning.

The alert was issued at 4:54 a.m., and officials say the closure is expected to remain in effect until at least noon. Traffic is being diverted off the freeway at Del Amo Boulevard as cleanup crews work to clear the hazardous spill.

Drivers are strongly urged to avoid the area and use alternate routes to minimize delays. In addition to the diesel spill, a separate crash has also led to the closure of the northbound 710 at the 405 Freeway, worsening traffic congestion throughout the area.

@millerchildrens Young Patients Become Animal Care

@millerchildrens Young Patients Become Animal Care Experts for a Day at @aquariumpacific

In celebration of National Dolphin Day on April 14, the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach hosted young patients from Miller Children’s & Women’s Hospital for a unique, hands-on experience exploring the world of veterinary care led by the hospital’s beloved mascot, Millie the Dolphin.

Dressed in lab coats, pediatric patients stepped into the role of animal care experts for the day, learning how veterinarians treat and heal marine life. From cleaning and bandaging an “injured” plush puffin to listening to a tortoise’s heartbeat and watching how anesthesia is safely administered to large animals, the kids saw just how similar animal care is to their own medical experiences.

“For Millie’s special day, we wanted to give our patients a chance to connect with healing in a new way,” said Rita Goshert, director of the Cherese Mari Laulhere Child Life Program. “It was incredible to watch them play, learn, and smile outside the hospital.”

Led by Aquarium veterinarian Dr. Brittany Stevens and vet tech Louise Leborgne, the visit offered an empowering parallel between human and animal healthcare. Real X-rays, medical tools, and recovery stories helped the children see themselves not just as patients, but as healers too.

Among the participants was 7-year-old Sage, who has been receiving treatment for leukemia. For her mother, the event was more than just educational, it was emotional. “She’s spent so much time being cared for. Seeing her as the one giving care was so powerful.”

This special Dolphin Day reminded everyone that resilience, compassion, and care are universal whether you walk on two legs or swim with fins.

City of Long Beach to Host 11 Olympic Events in 20

City of Long Beach to Host 11 Olympic Events in 2028

Long Beach, CA – In a major development for the 2028 Olympic Games, the City of Long Beach has been officially confirmed to host 11 sporting events, more than double the number originally proposed during LA’s initial bid. The announcement was made today following the International Olympic Committee Executive Board’s approval of the updated LA28 Olympic Venue Plan on April 9, 2025.

Originally slated for just five events, Long Beach’s role in the Olympics has significantly expanded, raising both excitement and serious questions about the city’s preparedness. The added events include Beach Volleyball, Coastal Rowing, Sport Climbing, and Target Shooting joining the previously confirmed lineup of Sailing, Water Polo, Artistic Swimming, Marathon Swimming, Canoe-Sprint, Rowing, and Handball.

Highlights of the updated plan include:
• Beach Volleyball at Alamitos Beach
• Coastal Rowing making its Olympic debut along the Long Beach waterfront
• Sport Climbing and Target Shooting in the Long Beach Convention Center lot, with temporary venues offering striking ocean views

In total, the events will be spread across six locations in the city. While the expanded role promises increased international visibility and economic benefits, it also brings substantial logistical and infrastructural challenges.

Long Beach has already launched a Strategic Roadmap and a dedicated LA28 webpage to guide preparations, but with just over three years to go before the opening ceremonies on July 14, 2028, questions remain: Can Long Beach deliver on this promise? Is the city truly ready to take on the increased scope of Olympic hosting duties?

While the economic and cultural potential is enormous, success will depend on timely infrastructure upgrades, effective crowd management strategies, and coordination with LA28 to ensure everything is ready by 2028. As the spotlight turns to Long Beach, the world will be watching not just the games, but how the city rises to this historic occasion.

Long Beach City Delays Nearly 2 Years to Disclose

Long Beach City Delays Nearly 2 Years to Disclose Breach Exposing SSNs, IDs, Biometric Data

Long Beach, CA – April 14, 2025 – In a long-awaited move, the City of Long Beach is notifying individuals whose personal information may have been compromised in a November 2023 cyberattack—17 months after the incident occurred.

The breach, which involved an unauthorized party accessing the City’s network, was initially disclosed in late 2023. But only now is the City issuing official notices to affected individuals and offering free credit monitoring services for some. The delay raises serious questions about why it took so long to alert the public, especially given the nature of the sensitive data involved.

According to officials, the breached files may have contained names alongside Social Security numbers, financial account details, medical information, driver’s license numbers, and even biometric data. While the City maintains there’s no evidence of fraud or misuse, the sheer scope of exposed personal information has sparked concern.

“Data security is of the utmost importance,” said Mayor Rex Richardson. “We will continue to be as transparent as we can.” But with the notification letters only going out now, many residents are left wondering: Why wasn’t this level of transparency offered sooner?

City Manager Tom Modica defended the timeline, citing the complexity of the forensic investigation, which was only completed in March 2025. “We understand this news may resurface concern and angst for our residents,” Modica said, assuring the public that cybersecurity remains a top priority.

A dedicated call center is now available at 888-802-9667 to answer questions, though callers are warned not to share personal information over the phone.

To bolster security going forward, the City has invested $1 million in its FY 2025 budget for cybersecurity infrastructure, training, and data loss prevention. But for those potentially affected, that may be little comfort.

Super Truck Racer Zoey Edenholm @zoeyeracing Visit

Super Truck Racer Zoey Edenholm @zoeyeracing Visits @millerchildrens Miller Children’s Hospital Ahead of Grand Prix @gplongbeach

Before hitting 150 mph at the Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach, @stadiumsupertrucks driver Zoey Edenholm made a special stop visiting young patients at Miller Children’s & Women’s Hospital on Thursday, April 10.

Wearing her hot pink racing suit, the 24-year-old racer brought books, autographs, and plenty of smiles as she visited kids in their rooms and play areas. The patients lit up as Edenholm shared stories about racing, showed off her helmet, and talked about being the only woman in her race category this weekend.

“It’s so cool to share my experience and talk to the kids about being in a pink truck and being a woman in motorsports,” said Edenholm, who’s made this hospital visit an annual tradition. “Having a supportive community here during the Long Beach Grand Prix makes it all the more special.”

Edenholm’s journey started at 11, when she traded gymnastics dreams for go-karts and speed. By 15, she committed to racing professionally. “I wanted to be a role model for the next generation to show girls they can make it beyond karting and into cars,” she said.

Now racing with Robby Gordon Motorsports since 2021, Edenholm is not only blazing trails on the track — she’s also learned how to navigate the business side of the sport. “You have to find your own funding to race. I’ve learned to be genuine and align with partners who share my values.”

Hospital staff praised her ability to connect. “This is her second visit during Grand Prix weekend, and the kids absolutely light up when she’s here,” said Rita Goshert, director of the Cherese Mari Laulhere Child Life Program.

Catch Edenholm on the track this weekend — and off the track, continuing to inspire with horsepower and heart.

Three Injured in Two Separate Long Beach Shootings

Long Beach, CA — April 8, 2025 – Long Beach police are investigating two separate shootings that left three men injured Monday evening.

The first incident occurred at approximately 8:19 p.m. in the 400 block of East Plymouth Street.

Lucky Strike Bowling Alley Coming to LBX Long Beac

Lucky Strike Bowling Alley Coming to LBX Long Beach Exchange

A new entertainment destination is on its way to East Long Beach, as city officials have officially approved plans to convert a former hardware store into a Lucky Strike bowling alley and entertainment center at the Long Beach Exchange.

In a unanimous 5-0 vote Thursday night, the Long Beach Planning Commission greenlit the necessary permits for the transformation of a long-vacant Orchard Supply Hardware location into a 40,000-square-foot facility featuring bowling, arcade games, dining, and more. The project is located at 4100 E. Carson Street, near the Long Beach Airport, within the Douglass Park shopping area.

Lucky Strike, an upscale bowling lounge known for its mix of modern and retro aesthetics, already operates three venues across Los Angeles County. Its Long Beach location is expected to house 34 bowling lanes, three separate arcade zones, a full bar, restaurant, prize room, and various support spaces such as offices and storage.

In addition to interior upgrades, the project includes extensive exterior renovations. The developers plan to fully enclose the 6,760-square-foot outdoor garden center formerly attached to the hardware store, adding it to the indoor footprint of the entertainment complex. The building’s façade will be redesigned, with the south side facing the parking lot and the west side along Worsham Avenue receiving the most substantial visual updates.

The project is being spearheaded by San Jose-based DJM Capital, the operator of the Long Beach Exchange retail and dining hub, which also includes The Hangar a popular 17,000-square-foot food hall located just across the street.

City officials praised the proposal during the Planning Commission meeting, calling it a productive use of a property that has been empty since 2019 and a boost for the surrounding commercial zone. Situated between Long Beach Airport and Lakewood Golf Course, the 238-acre Douglass Park area is considered a key economic corridor for the city.

Construction timelines and an opening date for the new Lucky Strike location have not yet been announced.

Thousands Celebrate Khmer Culture at 17th Annual C

Thousands Celebrate Khmer Culture at 17th Annual Cambodia Town Parade and Festival

Long Beach, CA – April 6, 2025 — By Ken Heang

The streets of Long Beach were filled with color, music, and tradition yesterday as thousands gathered for the 17th annual Cambodia Town Parade and Cultural Festival, one of the city’s most cherished events.

This year introduced a new parade route and festival location, but the spirit remained the same—celebrating community, heritage, and unity. The day began with an interfaith blessing on Anaheim Street in front of MacArthur Park, followed by a lively parade featuring traditional dancers, marching bands, and community groups. The procession moved along Anaheim and Alamitos, ending at Long Beach City College’s Pacific Coast Campus.

At the campus, the Cultural Festival kicked off with live music, dance, games, Khmer artisans, and an abundance of traditional Cambodian food. “We have all kinds of Cambodian food. We welcome people to walk around and try it all,” said Cambodia Town board member Richer San. “Along with peace, this event allows us to promote our community and welcome others into it.”

Originally created in 2005 to celebrate the Cambodian New Year and bring together Long Beach’s Cambodian population—the largest outside of Southeast Asia—the event has grown into a multicultural celebration. In 2007, the city officially designated a stretch of Anaheim Street as “Cambodia Town,” recognizing the community’s lasting impact.

Sunday’s celebration highlighted the strength and pride of Long Beach’s Cambodian-American community, while inviting people from all walks of life to experience the richness of Khmer culture. The Cambodia Town Parade and Festival continues to serve as a vibrant reminder of tradition, resilience, and unity.

Whale dies days after straying into waters of Long

Whale dies days after straying into waters of Long Beach Queensway Bay

A whale has been found dead days after it wandered into the waters of Long Beach’s Queensway Bay and Catalina Express Ferry Harbor, officials said Sunday.

“The minke whale that had been circling within Long Beach Harbor for much of the week was unfortunately found dead this morning, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said in a statement. “NOAA Fisheries is working with local officials to determine how best to access and examine the carcass to learn what happened to the whale. We will share more information when it becomes available.”

On Thursday morning, witnesses saw the whale circling in the harbor and attracting onlookers near the Catalina Express dock. The witness mentioned the massive marine mammal swimming around in the area near Golden Shore Drive and Shoreline Village, across from the Queen Mary. Just how long the whale had been in the harbor was unclear.
Chelsea Quezada, a spokesperson for the nearby Aquarium of the Pacific, confirmed it was a minke whale.

There were efforts to remove some booms near the exit to the harbor to give the whale more room to leave, using noise to encourage it to swim toward the exit, an NOAA spokesperson said. “The whale did actually briefly head out but then reversed back into the harbor and remained there,” the agency said Thursday. “For the time being now the team is standing down to see if the whale finds its way out on its own.

This does happen with different whale species from time to time in different harbors and bays and usually they find their way out on their own within a few days.” Photo by KTLA Sky5

MemorialCare Miller Children’s Hospital Long Beach Celebrates Autism Awareness Day

LONG BEACH, CA – MemorialCare Miller Children’s & Women’s Hospital Long Beach marked Autism Awareness Day with a vibrant community event dedicated to promoting acceptance and understanding of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Organized by the Stramski Children’s Developmental Center, the event brought together patients, families, hospital staff, and community members for a day filled with activities, education, and celebration.

The hospital participated in the global “Light It Up Blue” initiative, illuminating its exterior in blue to honor individuals with autism. Attendees, including members of the Long Beach Fire Department and volunteers from the community, held 36 blue puzzle pieces and one white puzzle piece—symbolizing the 1 in 36 children diagnosed with autism in the U.S. The celebration also featured sensory-friendly activities such as slime-making and bubble stations, as well as interactions with the hospital’s beloved mascot, Millie the Dolphin.

Dr. Ioana Pal, a clinical psychologist at the Stramski Developmental Center, emphasized the importance of raising awareness, stating, “Autism is a spectrum, and every child’s journey is unique. Through events like this, we help build a more inclusive society.” The event also served as an opportunity for families to learn more about autism diagnosis and early intervention services offered at the hospital.

Sumer Temple, a member of the Board of Directors for the Long Beach Chamber of Commerce, highlighted the broad-reaching impact of autism, saying, “Autism is something that intersects many places, and so many people are also impacted. Also, LGBTQ and autistic individuals share overlapping experiences, so there are many connections across different communities. We all need to come together with acceptance.”

The Stramski Children’s Developmental Center, which has supported children with autism and other developmental conditions for nearly 50 years, continues to be a vital resource for families in Southern California. @millerchildrens

Traffic Collision and Vehicle Fire at Del Amo and Cherry

Long Beach, CA – April 3, 2025 – A traffic collision at the intersection of Del Amo Boulevard and Cherry Avenue resulted in a vehicle fire around 1 p.m. today, causing significant disruptions in the area.

LBFD and LBPD arrived on the scene shortly after the crash, working to extinguish the flames and assist those involved. It is unclear how many vehicles were involved or if there were any injuries.

Motorists are advised to avoid the area and seek alternate routes. More details will be provided as they become available.

Long Beach at Risk of Losing 2028 Olympic Sailing

Long Beach at Risk of Losing 2028 Olympic Sailing Events to San Pedro

Long Beach may lose its role as the host of Olympic sailing in 2028 after the Los Angeles City Council voted 14-0 to approve venue changes requested by LA28. One amendment, proposed by Councilmember Tim McOsker, mandates shifting sailing events from Long Beach’s Belmont Veterans Memorial Pier to San Pedro’s Port of Los Angeles.

McOsker passionately argued that San Pedro offers better wind conditions, improved safety, and greater financial benefits. “The winds are better and more consistent in San Pedro,” he said, criticizing the lack of transparency in previous venue decisions. His amendment passed 12-2 before being incorporated into the final vote.

However, the battle isn’t over. Days later, McOsker introduced a new motion after LA28 released a statement that ignored the Council’s decision on sailing. His motion calls for a report on whether LA28 has accepted the change, the city’s authority in venue disputes, and potential legal avenues if disagreements persist.

The motion has been sent to the City Council’s Ad Hoc Committee on the 2028 Olympics, chaired by Council President Marqueece Harris-Dawson, one of two councilmembers who opposed moving the sailing event.

Adding to the uncertainty, LA28 already has a May 2024 agreement with Long Beach to use Belmont Pier, and the 2021 LA28-City of Los Angeles Games Agreement outlines arbitration for disputes.

With the issue now heading to committee and possibly involving World Sailing and even the International Olympic Committee, the final decision remains unclear. LA28 has yet to comment on the controversy.
