Friends we spoke with say the musician is known for partying hard, and often, having been in and out of rehab just before her rise to fame, and had most recently completed a short North American tour to promote her new album, Falling: The Near Dark. It is believed after swerving off the road at excessive speeds, Miss Miller was thrown clear of the vehicle early on as it began to come apart, flipping end over end multiple times before bursting into flames some distance away. It's a miracle the star was found alive, and she was rushed to Prospect Memorial Hospital in critical condition, unconscious. We will have further information as this story develops. ============================================================================== =================================== IC News ================================== Message: 12/98 Author: Colombe Fri Mar 05 2021 Avalon - Get Away Package 11:18:12 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Avalon Getaway Package!

Nancy Portray, a spokesperson for the District Attorney's office stated, "We have reason to believe that Lukas Bradshaw was operating an illegal antiquities trade from within the museum. The US Customs along with the Southern District of California is freezing all assets and confiscating all records, transactions and all electronic media at Crown Museum. The investigation into the matter is on going. Further details will be forth coming when available." Many law enforcement officers were sent entering the building and exiting with computers and paper records from the property. None of the exhibits have left the property, as it is unclear just which pieces of art are deemed 'illegal' by the Customs Department. Sam Hoy, a member of the legal team for the Crown and its owners state, "Our clients had no knowledge at all of any alleged illegal activities at the property and believe this will all turn out to be a false charge created by a disgruntled employee." Hoy goes on to state, "Mister Lukas Bradshaw was a troubled young man with many personal demons. We are deeply saddened for his family, and will co-orperate fully tracking and returning any items proven to be illegally traded, to their rightful owners." ============================================================================== =================================== IC News ================================== Message: 12/101 Author: Daniel Sun Jun 06 2021 Hit and Run 13:50:34 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ IC: Channel 5 News released a thirty second blurb - Local homeless man dies in hit and run near D Street Overpass.

"It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that we inform you that our Founder and Leader, Dr. Jolene Addison, passed away. The cause of death was sadly due to broken heart syndrome. Jolene was a courageous and dedicated public servant, and will be missed by many - well beyond those who have benefited from her ambitious initiatives here at On Wings of Angel's Foundation. She also quietly supported First Resort Urgent Care, A New Leash on Life and the Museum of Making Music throughout the community, and was one of the youngest Surgeons at Prospect Memorial, supporting fundraisers to raise funds for the children's ward. In all that she did, her heart was always for helping those less fortunate and making sure she could give all she could to make lives better. Sadly the stress of the recent accusations against her were just to much for her to bear. She will be missed tremendously at the On Wings of Angel's Foundation and hope to honor her dream of continuing to support the community as she would have. Dr. Jolene Addison was the last surviving member of the Addison Family. As per the wishes of Dr. Addison, her body is to be cremated and ashes spread by her friends along the Prospect Home where she lived. in a private ceremony.

We will report when more is known. Preliminary information is unclear of the epicenter, or magnitude. Original Story: A series of four earthquakes rattled Anza, California, in Riverside County Wednesday morning. No damage was reported, but Californians as far away as Northern Prospect County reported feeling weak to light shaking from the quakes. The U.S. Geological Survey listed four earthquakes in the area within a span of about 17 minutes: Magnitude 3.1 at 10:43 a.m. Magnitude 2.2 at 10:49 a.m. Magnitude 3.6 at 10:56 a.m. Magnitude 2.5 at 11 a.m. It’s not a matter of if, it’s a matter of when a large earthquake is bound to hit Prospect County. According to the scientists at CalTech, Southern Californians should be prepared with a disaster plan and emergency kits for whenever the unthinkable strikes. To help get ready for when the "Big One" hits, the Great ShakeOut has been practiced annually up and down the state of California. It is always worth the reminder that when an earthquake occurs: drop, cover and hold on. "Earthquakes Warning Ca, or EWC, is the country’s first publicly available, statewide warning system that could give California residents crucial seconds to take cover before you feel shaking," according to Earthquakes.CA.Gov. Californians can sign up for the MyQuake App to receive a test earthquake warning. The free app is available in all major app stores. Wireless no-cost text messages for emergency situations alerts are also available. In 2020, a Prospect Earthquake Scenario revealed how devastating it would be if a magnitude 6.9 earthquake were to strike along the Forest Canyon Fault. The Earthquake Engineering Research Institute, which simulated the disaster, said they studied the Forest Canyon fault because it runs along the urban core of Prospect. The study found that about 120,000 buildings would be damaged in such an event. Researchers found that coastal communities from La Jolla to Coronado could be cut off from nearly all utility services and infrastructures if a major 6.9-magnitude earthquake were to happen. Every year approximately 500 earthquakes occur in the state of California that are large enough to be felt. Prospect County, in comparison to other southern California areas, has sparse seismicity. However, since 1984, earthquake activity in Prospect County has doubled over that of the preceding 50 years. Ongoing field and laboratory studies suggest the largest credible earthquake predicted for the coastal and metropolitan areas is a M7.2 on the Forest Canyon Fault and a M7.6 from either the El Cajon Fault or the Vista Fault in the north and east county areas. It should also be noted that some faults are hidden beneath unperturbed sediments (blind fault) and only discovered after an earthquake occurs. ============================================================================== =================================== IC News ================================== Message: 12/113 Author: Madeline Sat Dec 04 2021 Carlsbad Film Commission Formed 17:02:12 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The City of Carlsbad has created a new initiative to encourage film production companies to bring their business to the city.
