- Watsonville city officials and residents discussed the use of Flock cameras during a City Council meeting Tuesday evening, with police emphasizing their importance for crime prevention and critics voicing concerns about privacy and data sharing.
Chief of Police Brian Shab explained that the cameras capture still images of vehicles and their license plates, along with details such as the date, time and location.
“So when we talk about what’s being collected, we’re talking about a vehicle observation in a public place, a still image of a vehicle, its license plate and information associated with that observation, such as the date, the time and a place,” Shab said.
The city’s $249,000 contract with Flock also allows police to access local cameras and search license plates outside their jurisdiction.

- Description
- NOAA Fisheries West Coast said the first recorded natural nesting of any sea turtle species on the U.S. West Coast recently occurred in Southern California.
An olive ridley sea turtle was seen digging a nest and laying eggs on a beach near Seal Beach in Orange County.
Three days later, a sea turtle was spotted on a beach a few miles south near the Huntington Beach Pier. NOAA said it is unclear whether it was the same turtle.
“Our team of local, state and federal partners will monitor the nesting sites throughout the incubation period, which typically lasts 45 to 60 days,” NOAA said. “Both areas are fenced, protected and have interpretive signage.”
Beachgoers are urged not to approach or disturb the sites.
According to NOAA, olive ridley turtles are the smallest sea turtle species. Adults can weigh up to 100 pounds and grow 2½ to 3 feet long. They are estimated to live about 30 to 50 years.

- Hollister High School canceled the remainder of its varsity football season after three games as the district investigates a matter involving the program.
In the past 24 hours, past and current players, along with several parents, have shared claims of a history of hazing at the start of each football season.
They have told KSBW 8 that there is a history of hazing at the beginning of each season, which they claim includes new players fighting each other or being attacked by upperclassmen.
While KSBW has not independently confirmed these rumors, photos shown to the station appear to depict students fighting.
We have heard more rumors and are working to separate fact from fiction.
The San Benito County District Attorney’s Office said it is not currently involved in the matter but is monitoring the situation.
The Hollister Police Department said it has not received any reports related to the situation.

- Hollister High School has suspended the rest of its varsity football season while the San Benito High School District investigates an issue involving members of the varsity program.
The reason for the investigation has not been made public.
