- Description
- Westbound Interstate 80 lanes in Placer County are shut down after a big rig carrying pigs overturned, resulting in some of the swine running loose before being corralled. Traffic going westbound is being taken off I-80 at Secret Town Road to allow for traffic to start flowing again. As of 6 a.m., KCRA 3's Melanie Wingo observed that there were still pigs inside the trailer. Crews are working to get those pigs out of the trailer, a California Highway Patrol officer said crews will have to cut into the trailer to release more pigs out of the trailer. Originally, the intention was to upright the trailer, but crews determined it was too heavy to do so with all of the pigs still inside.

- Description
- Closing arguments in the murder trial determining guilt over Sacramento's deadliest shooting are expected to begin Tuesday. This follows weeks of testimony that saw reluctant witnesses—some only speaking under subpoena or the condition of immunity, conflicting statements and at-times heated back-and-forth between witnesses and attorneys. The issue over the April 3, 2022, shootout along K Street that left six people dead and 12 more injured is what drove the confrontation.
