Marina del Rey Dredging

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is removing approximately one hundred Olympic-sized swimming pools worth of sediment from Marina del Rey?s harbor, which has made navigating the main channel difficult for boaters and first responders.

You can watch more stories like this on Channel 92 or 94 on most cable systems, or anytime here. Catch up on LA County Close-Up?here.

Human Trafficking Awareness - Know to Say No

Know to say no - Human Trafficking Awareness Month

It?s important to know the signs of human trafficking because it can help prevent this terrible crime. Exploiters often use tricks like giving gifts and making false promises to lure people into dangerous situations.

Sometimes, it can be hard to tell if someone is in trouble because the signs might seem like normal teenage behavior. But if you notice something unusual or suspicious, it?s important to speak up and get help.

Exploiters who do this often work slowly and carefully, so it?s important to pay attention to the warning signs. They might also try to use kids to recruit their friends into bad situations, so it?s important to be aware of what?s going on with the people around you.

By knowing the signs of human trafficking, you can help keep yourself and your community safe. Remember, if you see something, say something.
