I know kno was having two 11 00:01:06.400 --> 00:01:11.599 Thanksgivings. Did you recover? It was a long day the first Thanksgiving with 12 00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:17.760 a almost three year old, yeah, and five children under six years old. 13 00:01:17.840 --> 00:01:21.239 When did the meltown?

Okay, 17 00:01:29.640 --> 00:01:32.879 yeah, I did. We had a small Thanksgiving with my brother and 18 00:01:32.920 --> 00:01:34.719 his girlfriend and it was great. And then I got to go up to 19 00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:38.799 paser Obols for the weekend to see my best friend who recently moved up there, 20 00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:42.640 and so we did wine tasting, as one is wont to do in 21 00:01:42.760 --> 00:01:47.359 paser Robos. That was fabulous. And then we did our small Business Saturday 22 00:01:47.519 --> 00:01:49.840 and went down to San Luis Obispo, which I've never been to. Their 23 00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:55.319 little downtown area really cool. So I love Small Business Saturday. It's just 24 00:01:55.359 --> 00:01:57.799 a you know, you can go to the malls any day and you kind 25 00:01:57.799 --> 00:02:00.239 of forget about some of the small businesses, and if you forget about, 26 00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:02.159 some of them are going to go away, Like in Claremont. We used 27 00:02:02.159 --> 00:02:07.639 to go to Claremont on Saturdays after Thanksgiving, and now Claremont is still a 28 00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:12.000 beautiful little place, but a lot of the little shops that they had that 29 00:02:12.039 --> 00:02:14.719 you could do some of your great shopping, have just closed up. So 30 00:02:15.520 --> 00:02:19.840 gotta support. I also missed traffic. Did you guys get stuck in traffic? 31 00:02:19.919 --> 00:02:23.560 I missed traffic because I headed home really early yesterday, so I'm heading 32 00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:25.599 south on the Grapevine and of course still freaking out because remember, I don't 33 00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:28.840 know if you remember, but a couple months ago my car broke down on 34 00:02:28.879 --> 00:02:32.199 the Grapevine but that's a whole other story. So but and traffic was not 35 00:02:32.360 --> 00:02:38.400 bad, but heading north it was crazy. And that was like at ten 36 00:02:38.439 --> 00:02:39.879 o'clock in the morning, and I was like, oh my gosh, I 37 00:02:39.919 --> 00:02:44.400 feel bad for the people who didn't get an early start yesterday. So hope 38 00:02:44.439 --> 00:02:46.000 you made it home safe and sound. Hope you had a great weekend. 39 00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:52.080 Here's what is ahead on wake Up Call. More hostages are expected to be 40 00:02:52.120 --> 00:02:55.759 released on this fourth day of the Israel Hamas ceasefire. Israel has said it 41 00:02:55.759 --> 00:03:00.759 would extend the ceasefire by one day for every ten day additional hostages released. 42 00:03:00.960 --> 00:03:05.960 We're going to be talking with ABC's Geordana Miller in about a half hour and 43 00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:09.319 get the latest on what's going on now, who's been released, and if 44 00:03:09.319 --> 00:03:14.080 there's going to be an extension to that ceasefire. So Call is bracing for 45 00:03:14.120 --> 00:03:17.960 another round of strong Santa Ana wins. Forecasters say gusts of thirty to fifty 46 00:03:19.000 --> 00:03:22.800 miles per hour are expected through tomorrow, with US up to sixty miles per 47 00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:24.919 hour in the mountains and foothills after the winds. We have a chance of 48 00:03:25.039 --> 00:03:29.199 rain Wednesday through Friday. It's this light one, but there's a chance. 49 00:03:29.879 --> 00:03:38.240 A newly unsealed legal complaint claims Facebook and Instagram deliberately engineered its social platforms to 50 00:03:38.319 --> 00:03:42.360 hook kids. The complaint also alleges the company new but never disclosed, that 51 00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:46.439 it had received millions of complaints about underage users and only acted on a fraction 52 00:03:46.479 --> 00:03:52.319 of them. Parent company met us as the complaint misrepresents its work. At 53 00:03:52.319 --> 00:03:53.759 six oh five, It's handle on the news, A forty eight year old 54 00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:59.439 has been arrested in connection with the shooting of three Palestinian students in Vermont that's 55 00:03:59.479 --> 00:04:01.479 being called a hate crime. Let's get started with some of the stories coming 56 00:04:01.520 --> 00:04:05.000 out of the CAMFI twenty four hour newsroom. An American girl who spent her 57 00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:10.840 fourth birthday as a hostage in Gaza is one of the latest group of hostages 58 00:04:10.919 --> 00:04:15.400 released as part of the ceasefire agreement with Israel. President Biden's The girl's parents 59 00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:19.879 were killed when Hamas attacked on October seventh. Those who are now Rappie and 60 00:04:19.879 --> 00:04:26.240 Abigail in love and care and the support of services she needs she's been through 61 00:04:26.399 --> 00:04:30.040 a terrible trauma. A nine year old Israeli girl, who also had a 62 00:04:30.040 --> 00:04:32.720 birthday while being held hostage, was also freed over the weekend. She'd been 63 00:04:32.759 --> 00:04:36.160 sleeping over at a friend's house when she was kidnapped. Her father thought she 64 00:04:36.199 --> 00:04:41.360 had been killed and said he was relieved because she wouldn't have to suffer in 65 00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:48.360 captivity. Police and vermon have arrested a man accused of shooting three Palestinian College 66 00:04:48.360 --> 00:04:53.839 students. Authority say the students were outside the man's apartment yesterday when they were 67 00:04:53.839 --> 00:04:58.839 shot. ABC's Andrew Dimbert says two were wearing Palestinian scars. They were reportedly 68 00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:02.160 speaking Arabic while returning to one of their relatives' homes when police say the suspect 69 00:05:02.199 --> 00:05:06.319 approached them and fired at least four rounds without saying a word, then ran 70 00:05:06.399 --> 00:05:11.399 off. Two of the injured students are in stable condition. The other has 71 00:05:11.399 --> 00:05:15.839 more serious injuries. The Oli County Sheriff's Burglary Robbery Task Force has arrested ten 72 00:05:15.879 --> 00:05:19.759 people in connection with a flash mob robbery at a Nike store in East la 73 00:05:20.199 --> 00:05:25.399 The store on Whittier Boulevard was hit several times over the summer. Deputies have 74 00:05:25.480 --> 00:05:30.279 linked the robberies to two criminal street gangs that focused on organized retail theft. 75 00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:32.600 A man walking on the one to one Freeway has been hit and killed shpieces. 76 00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:36.600 It happened in the eastbound lanes just west of DeSoto Avenue around three this 77 00:05:36.680 --> 00:05:41.800 morning. A burst water pipe in Hermosa Beach is sent a torrent of water 78 00:05:41.959 --> 00:05:47.120 into Redondo Beach. Hermosa Beach police say the pipe, controlled by California Water 79 00:05:47.160 --> 00:05:51.879 Service burst last night in the area of Harper Avenue in Ormond Lane. Official 80 00:05:51.959 --> 00:05:58.519 say hundreds of thousands of gallons spilled. Let's say good morning now to ABC's 81 00:05:58.800 --> 00:06:01.480 Jim Ryan. Good night morning, Jim, Hey Amy, good morning, 82 00:06:01.560 --> 00:06:05.000 Happy Thanksgiving, a little bit lated, happy belated Thanksgiving to you, and 83 00:06:05.040 --> 00:06:09.480 now I will say happy Christmas season because it's on. It is on. 84 00:06:09.560 --> 00:06:13.000 Yeah. I was seeing all the stuff in the stores now a few twinkling 85 00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:15.879 lights on a few houses and a few neighborhoods, and that's going to grow 86 00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:19.439 right through the twentieth maybe the twenty first, when people finally finished putting up 87 00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:24.399 their stuff. I know some people in where I was visiting this weekend already 88 00:06:24.480 --> 00:06:30.079 had everything up like fully fully loaded and had all the inflatables up and all 89 00:06:30.120 --> 00:06:31.120 the lights and everything, and I was like, oh, I got to 90 00:06:31.160 --> 00:06:34.240 get my Christmas stuff out. But anyway, hey, we wanted to talk 91 00:06:34.279 --> 00:06:41.480 to you today because we have a not it's pretty unsettling that the CDC has 92 00:06:41.519 --> 00:06:46.920 come out with a new information. Autism used to become a pretty uncommon thing, 93 00:06:46.959 --> 00:06:49.240 but this new report says that's not the case anymore. Well, no, 94 00:06:49.319 --> 00:06:54.519 you're right, and unsettling in a way, yes, but also heartening. 95 00:06:54.519 --> 00:06:58.199 I mean it offers some hope because yes, the number of children diagnosed 96 00:06:58.199 --> 00:07:03.360 with autism spectrum disorder has been rising consistently. It's also risen dramatically since the 97 00:07:04.040 --> 00:07:09.639 nineteen nineties, when really public awareness began to spike about this. So right 98 00:07:09.639 --> 00:07:14.319 now, Center's for Is Controlling Prevention shows that about one in thirty six children 99 00:07:14.439 --> 00:07:18.120 age eight in the country has been diagnosed with autism. In two thousand, 100 00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:21.639 the number was about one in one hundred and fifties. So, yes, 101 00:07:21.680 --> 00:07:26.600 this number has gone up dramatically. But does that mean that not many more 102 00:07:26.759 --> 00:07:31.839 children actually have autism spectrum disorder. No, but it means more have been 103 00:07:31.839 --> 00:07:40.360 diagnosed. The diagnosis has gotten much better. I mean the diagnostic criteria have 104 00:07:40.560 --> 00:07:45.360 changed. It was first described in the nineteen forties, but back then they 105 00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:46.680 didn't know what to do about it. They really didn't know what to look 106 00:07:46.759 --> 00:07:51.560 for. But that has improved dramatically, and so in nineteen eighty four, 107 00:07:53.000 --> 00:07:58.879 the American Psychiatric Association released the fourth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of 108 00:07:58.920 --> 00:08:03.000 Mental Disorders. Was included in that, and so that's why we've seen this, 109 00:08:03.360 --> 00:08:07.560 the diagnosis go up dramatically. So you know, it's likely that by 110 00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:11.399 age eight, most kids, maybe all kids, have been screened at one 111 00:08:11.399 --> 00:08:16.040 time or another, and because of public awareness, parents know what to look 112 00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:20.680 for early on, even in their toddlers, even before the kid reaches toddler 113 00:08:20.720 --> 00:08:24.680 age, there are signs that they can look for. And when does is 114 00:08:24.720 --> 00:08:30.720 there a typical time when it starts presenting itself? Well, I mean again, 115 00:08:30.759 --> 00:08:35.399 it's around the pre k around kindergarten, around those times, because that's 116 00:08:35.440 --> 00:08:39.200 when you start to see kids who are interacting more with other kids. And 117 00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:43.639 for most of them, it's it's a fairly easy natural process. They make 118 00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:48.480 friends with their other little kids and grow from there. But some kids have 119 00:08:48.600 --> 00:08:54.279 trouble. They don't socialize well. With other kids. Does that absolutely mean 120 00:08:54.360 --> 00:08:58.120 autism spectrum disorder? No, absolutely not, but certainly that's one of the 121 00:08:58.120 --> 00:09:01.159 things on a checklist that pediatry since we'll be looking for as they try to 122 00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:05.919 make this diagnosis. You know, I think back to when I was in 123 00:09:05.960 --> 00:09:09.960 school and some of the kids who were you know that they, like you 124 00:09:09.000 --> 00:09:13.960 said, they had trouble interacting with other kids, and you wonder maybe that 125 00:09:15.000 --> 00:09:18.879 person was on the spectrum, as they say, and we just didn't know 126 00:09:18.039 --> 00:09:22.320 because we didn't have the diagnostic tools at that time, so they didn't know 127 00:09:22.360 --> 00:09:26.000 what they were looking for. Absolutely, And if you look back to the 128 00:09:26.039 --> 00:09:31.480 fifties, the sixties, the seventies, then that's really when not the fifties, 129 00:09:31.519 --> 00:09:33.639 Gym, I'm not that old. Well, no, I understand, 130 00:09:33.840 --> 00:09:39.720 but really that's when things came to light. I'll tell you a story, 131 00:09:39.720 --> 00:09:45.399 I mean personal story that my brother who's seventy and seventy years old now is 132 00:09:45.480 --> 00:09:52.279 autistic, and really he was diagnosed way after even high school. There was 133 00:09:52.320 --> 00:09:56.000 just no recognition. Nobody knew what to do about it. Misdiagnoses all along 134 00:09:56.039 --> 00:10:01.720 the way. But he's lived a great life. Mary lives independently with his 135 00:10:01.799 --> 00:10:07.159 wife and so it's not a it's not a sentence to a life of certainly 136 00:10:07.200 --> 00:10:09.080 institutionalization, which it would have been in the thirties and forties. Maybe, 137 00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:13.240 Yeah, there is a there's a light head and for a lot of folks 138 00:10:13.279 --> 00:10:18.279 in great life, I love that. And and with the diagnoses, it's 139 00:10:18.320 --> 00:10:24.279 it's kind of catching everybody who's on the spectrum, as they call it. 140 00:10:24.600 --> 00:10:30.600 Yes, and it has evolved somewhat so that certain things are not necessarily included 141 00:10:30.679 --> 00:10:35.679 in that in that diagnosis. But you're right. For example, you know 142 00:10:35.240 --> 00:10:41.759 Asperger syndrome and this catch all pervasive developmental disorder not otherwise specified d d n 143 00:10:41.799 --> 00:10:48.440 os. Those were added to the diagnostic diagnostic tools back in the nineties but 144 00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:52.120 then taken off that list. These are specialized things that those terms just really 145 00:10:52.159 --> 00:10:56.440 aren't used so much anymore. Okay, So even though the numbers are up, 146 00:10:56.519 --> 00:11:00.320 it's actually a good thing because it means we're catching it absolutely, that's 147 00:11:00.399 --> 00:11:03.399 right. You know, doesn't mean the incidence is hire most likely Now it's 148 00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:05.559 a matter of trying to find out why. And we still don't have any 149 00:11:05.600 --> 00:11:09.440 idea why what's causing this. Well, there are clues, you know, 150 00:11:09.919 --> 00:11:13.080 there are external factors. You know, women are giving birth later and that's 151 00:11:13.399 --> 00:11:20.480 associated in a lot of cases with the disorder prenatal exposure to air pollution or 152 00:11:20.679 --> 00:11:26.919 pesticide paternal OBCD. The country's weight overall has gone up and that is associated 153 00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:35.000 sometimes with this. So we've got clues. Absolutely cause has been found, 154 00:11:35.039 --> 00:11:37.600 not yet, but they're looking. Oh keep looking to Thank you so much, 155 00:11:37.639 --> 00:11:41.039 Jim Ryan, appreciate all the information. Thanks Amy. Let's get back 156 00:11:41.039 --> 00:11:43.600 to some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. 157 00:11:43.600 --> 00:11:46.799 A couple dozen people have held a protest outside the La County Sheriff station in 158 00:11:46.879 --> 00:11:52.559 East La, calling for deputies to face consequences for beating a disabled man. 159 00:11:52.679 --> 00:11:56.600 Video shows a deputy seeming to place a man in a chokehold while the other 160 00:11:56.720 --> 00:12:00.080 punches him repeatedly in the face. The man's attorney says the beating was not 161 00:12:00.240 --> 00:12:01.720 justified. There was no report of a crime, There was no one who 162 00:12:01.720 --> 00:12:05.120 called nine one one on mister Ernandez, and there was nothing which should have 163 00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:09.840 caused the deputies to have stopped mister Hernandez. Despite those facts, they tried 164 00:12:09.840 --> 00:12:13.759 to stop him, and when they stopped him, they recognized that he had 165 00:12:13.759 --> 00:12:16.679 a disability. The Sheriff's Department says Alejandro Hernandez, who is an amputee, 166 00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:22.399 had reached for his waistband where he was hiding a loaded gun and was resisting 167 00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:26.440 arrest. A major drug trafficker with connections to L. Choppo's cartel in Mexico 168 00:12:26.519 --> 00:12:31.120 has been killed in South LA. Investigators with the La County Sheriff's Department say 169 00:12:31.200 --> 00:12:35.279 Eduardo Escobedo was one of two gunned down in an industrial area of Willowbrook. 170 00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:39.039 Officials say Escabato was killed during a party overnight Wednesday and the Thursday, though 171 00:12:39.039 --> 00:12:43.159 a specific motive wasn't given. Escobato, who went by the nickname El Mago 172 00:12:43.360 --> 00:12:46.399 or the Magician, was raised in East LA and worked for L. Choppo's 173 00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:50.720 oldest son, often bragging and flaunting his lavish lifestyle by posting pictures of himself 174 00:12:50.840 --> 00:12:56.279 drinking high end champagne and posing with celebrities like Floyd Mayweather and Al Pacino. 175 00:12:56.720 --> 00:13:03.360 Steve Gregory k if I knew, I wish. It was so sad to 176 00:13:03.399 --> 00:13:05.840 hear this.

We're going to be at the 184 00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:39.759 Anaheim White House tomorrow morning, starting right at five am with wake up call 185 00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:43.000 and leading up to our show, we wanted to introduce you to one of 186 00:13:43.000 --> 00:13:46.799 the kids whose life was changed thanks to Chef Bruno and Katerina's Club. The 187 00:13:46.840 --> 00:13:52.480 money and the pasta you donate helps kids now and continues to affect them after 188 00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:56.720 they're all grown up. So let's say good morning now to Alandra Beteo. 189 00:13:58.080 --> 00:14:01.080 Alandra, how did you first come to know oh, Chef Bruno. I 190 00:14:01.120 --> 00:14:03.039 was about six or seven years old when I started going to the Boys and 191 00:14:03.039 --> 00:14:09.720 Girls Club and Bruno people come bring pasta to the club that I would participate 192 00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:13.879 at. So he will give us pasta before we will go home every day, 193 00:14:15.200 --> 00:14:18.519 and then he went to our mobile home park where I used to live 194 00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:22.600 at com bring his pasta. And then during the month of November he will 195 00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:28.080 come with the Chapman students to come deliver turkeys and all the stuff that you 196 00:14:28.120 --> 00:14:31.799 know, it's needed for Thanksgiving dinner. And yeah, that's how I got 197 00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:35.080 to know him. So you were involved in the Boys and Girls Club? 198 00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:37.960 So did you go there every day after school? Yes? And about how 199 00:14:37.960 --> 00:14:41.919 many kids were in your Boys and Girls clubs? Oh, well, we 200 00:14:43.039 --> 00:14:46.000 got a lot of kids from my mobile home park. It was a good 201 00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:52.159 ten of us every day, ten of us from Monday through Friday. But 202 00:14:52.360 --> 00:14:56.519 over on the Boys and Girls Club, I would say a good two hundred 203 00:14:56.600 --> 00:15:01.360 to fifty kids a day. That's great, okay. And I would imagine 204 00:15:01.399 --> 00:15:05.639 when you're seven years old, you don't really realize what's going on. I 205 00:15:05.679 --> 00:15:09.960 know that Chef Bruno is bringing you guys food, and isn't that lovely? 206 00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:13.200 But did you as you grew older, did you start to realize that one 207 00:15:13.240 --> 00:15:18.080 he was helping out your family by maybe taking some of the food burden off 208 00:15:18.120 --> 00:15:24.600 of them and really helping tons and tons of people. Yes, it was 209 00:15:24.639 --> 00:15:26.639 actually a funny story, like one time I had my shoes off for some 210 00:15:26.679 --> 00:15:31.480 reason. There was a skate park there and I was changing my shoes and 211 00:15:31.519 --> 00:15:35.039 there was holes on my socks and Bruno saw that. The next day, 212 00:15:35.320 --> 00:15:41.039 he had someone buy me socks from the store, making sure that I have 213 00:15:41.279 --> 00:15:46.080 what I needed, because back then it was kind of hard on my family, 214 00:15:46.159 --> 00:15:50.279 especially with the rent that my parents had to pay. Were just him 215 00:15:50.360 --> 00:15:54.679 buying socks or even him coming to our mobile file parking give us food to 216 00:15:54.879 --> 00:16:00.320 low income families like it benefited a lot. That's so cool. So that 217 00:16:00.360 --> 00:16:03.120 was when you were seven years old, and now you're twenty two, twenty 218 00:16:03.120 --> 00:16:07.240 one, twenty one. Oh, she's still talking. One. Okay, 219 00:16:07.559 --> 00:16:11.720 what are you doing with yourself these days? Right now? I am a 220 00:16:11.759 --> 00:16:15.039 for fear, I ca'll say full til. I'll be finishing up my degree 221 00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:21.440 in the sociology in May, so I'm hoping that I work with children. 222 00:16:21.519 --> 00:16:22.960 I do want to give back to my community. Right now, I'm actually 223 00:16:23.559 --> 00:16:27.879 working as a pre college advisor, So the students that I serve are low 224 00:16:27.919 --> 00:16:33.399 income, first generation students trying to get to higher education, and hopefully I 225 00:16:33.440 --> 00:16:37.440 get to my master's so I could become a school counselor look at you along 226 00:16:37.519 --> 00:16:40.600 he that is so great, and I think it's just testament to what this 227 00:16:40.639 --> 00:16:44.039 program does. It changes lives. It doesn't only fill up their bellies and 228 00:16:44.200 --> 00:16:47.120 fills up their hearts and their minds too. So thank you so much, 229 00:16:47.159 --> 00:16:51.440 and that's luck to you. Congratulations, thank you appreciate it, Alandro. 230 00:16:51.639 --> 00:16:55.279 Butteo, isn't that great? I mean, like you feed a kid in 231 00:16:55.320 --> 00:16:59.039 the afternoon and you don't realize the long term implications that that has.

Let's get back to some of 245 00:17:49.839 --> 00:17:52.880 the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour news room. A homeowner 246 00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:59.240 in Chatsworth says thieves have stolen dozens of high end purses and several watches from 247 00:17:59.240 --> 00:18:02.680 his home. The family was out shopping on Black Friday, probably about thirty 248 00:18:02.720 --> 00:18:07.880 to forty five handbags, Chanelle Gucci, about six watches, a Cardier diamond 249 00:18:07.880 --> 00:18:14.000 watch, four rolixes. He tells KTLA this stuff was worth about two hundred 250 00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:18.200 thousand dollars. He also says the thieves used bear spray on the family's two 251 00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:22.599 Pomeranians. Police and Westminster have arrested the mother of a nine year old girl 252 00:18:22.680 --> 00:18:25.920 found dead inside her home. Officers had gone to the home Friday to do 253 00:18:25.960 --> 00:18:30.079 a welfare check and forced their way in. Only the girl was there. 254 00:18:30.400 --> 00:18:33.680 The mom was arrested at a shopping center in Aliso Via Home. A five 255 00:18:33.720 --> 00:18:37.960 year old girl rescued after she was swept out to sea and half Moon Bay 256 00:18:38.000 --> 00:18:41.559 has died at the hospital. The search for a fifty four year old man 257 00:18:41.680 --> 00:18:45.799 also swept away Saturday has been called off. The Coastguard says two people at 258 00:18:45.799 --> 00:18:51.079 Martin's Beach had been reported swept out to sea by what officials called a sneaker 259 00:18:51.119 --> 00:18:56.000 wave. The Weather Service says such waves surge much farther up the beach than 260 00:18:56.079 --> 00:19:06.200 expected and can overtake a person. Jesus. A naked man has been arrested 261 00:19:06.240 --> 00:19:11.119 for causing a commotion on the Small World ride at Disneyland. The guy apparently 262 00:19:11.119 --> 00:19:14.799 got off the ride yesterday, stripped down to his underwear and walked or onto 263 00:19:14.839 --> 00:19:18.880 some of the attractions. Video shows him walking around as Christmas music plays in 264 00:19:18.920 --> 00:19:22.720 the background. It was splashing in the water as park employees went up to 265 00:19:22.839 --> 00:19:26.519 him. He was carried away and arrested for Indisian exposure and being under the 266 00:19:26.599 --> 00:19:32.400 influence of a controlled substance. A guess station employee's mistake is paid off for 267 00:19:32.480 --> 00:19:36.440 a lottery player in Michigan. The man usually apparently buys a lottery ticket for 268 00:19:36.480 --> 00:19:40.960 ten or twenty draws, but in September, the employee accidentally printed out a 269 00:19:40.960 --> 00:19:45.359 ticket with ten lines for a single draw. Well. That ticket was worth 270 00:19:45.359 --> 00:19:48.319 twenty five thousand dollars a year for life. The man who bought it recently 271 00:19:48.319 --> 00:19:52.680 claimed the lump sum of three hundred and ninety thousand dollars. More hostages are 272 00:19:52.720 --> 00:19:56.640 expected to be released on this fourth day of the Israel Hamas cease fire. 273 00:19:57.240 --> 00:20:03.480 Israel has said it would extend the ceasefire by one day for every ten additional 274 00:20:03.519 --> 00:20:07.599 hostages released. Southern California is bracing for another round of strong Santa Ana winds. 275 00:20:07.720 --> 00:20:11.839 Forecasters say wind gus thirty to fifty miles per hour are expected through tomorrow, 276 00:20:12.039 --> 00:20:15.559 with us up to sixty miles per hour in the mountains and foothills. 277 00:20:15.839 --> 00:20:19.599 After the wind, there's a slight chance of rain Wednesday through Friday. Its 278 00:20:19.680 --> 00:20:23.200 just a twenty percent chance, but still there. Some Gen z Ers may 279 00:20:23.200 --> 00:20:27.759 not be heading home for the holidays because of student loans. A recent Credit 280 00:20:27.839 --> 00:20:33.039 Karma survey found many Gen Z Americans with student debt can't afford to pay for 281 00:20:33.240 --> 00:20:37.440 travel on top of their student loan payments. About a third say they are 282 00:20:37.440 --> 00:20:41.480 relying on their parents to pay for their holiday travel. At six oh five, 283 00:20:41.480 --> 00:20:45.240 it's handle on the news. This one brings back memories. The King 284 00:20:45.400 --> 00:20:48.720 of Saturday Mornings, Marty Kroft, has died at five poin fifty. We're 285 00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:53.200 going to be talking to ABC's Tom Rivers about a dream cruise that has well 286 00:20:53.200 --> 00:20:56.759 pretty much turned out to be a nightmare and it hasn't even set sail. 287 00:20:57.480 --> 00:21:03.079 We're waiting for Georgiana mill It looks like she's calling in right now from Jerusalem, 288 00:21:03.119 --> 00:21:07.519 where it's early morning. Good morning, Jordana. First of all, 289 00:21:07.599 --> 00:21:08.799 let's start with the good news, and that is that we got her back. 290 00:21:08.799 --> 00:21:15.480 How's little Abigail doing. We understand she's doing well. She's been reunited 291 00:21:15.480 --> 00:21:21.000 with her siblings. She has two siblings that survived the October seventh attack, 292 00:21:21.119 --> 00:21:26.480 even though her parents were murdered by Hamas on that day. Her aunt is 293 00:21:26.519 --> 00:21:33.039 with her. She's still at the hospital special children's ward that has been created 294 00:21:33.039 --> 00:21:37.880 in one of his reluff hospitals, and she's doing well. Her aunt, 295 00:21:37.920 --> 00:21:41.400 who is now going to raise her, is there with her, and we 296 00:21:41.480 --> 00:21:47.839 hear that she's okay. It's so hard because it's like, it's heartwarming to 297 00:21:47.880 --> 00:21:52.640 hear that this four year old who turned four years old while being held hostage 298 00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:56.200 by a mosque is back free. She's, like you said, she's with 299 00:21:56.279 --> 00:22:00.160 family, but her parents were murdered in front of her on October seventh. 300 00:22:03.000 --> 00:22:07.160 That's right, and it's you know, it's it's horrifying. Let's hope she 301 00:22:07.200 --> 00:22:11.039 has no memory of it or you know, because she was so little, 302 00:22:11.480 --> 00:22:15.799 but she's there were many children who saw their parents killed in front of them 303 00:22:15.920 --> 00:22:23.039 on October seventh. I mean, there are there are two kids who essentially 304 00:22:23.640 --> 00:22:32.480 hid in a closet for fourteen hours and they they saw their their first their 305 00:22:32.559 --> 00:22:37.000 father being killed that was killed, and then their mother who was shot. 306 00:22:37.359 --> 00:22:44.920 So these are these are this is going to be a whole group of children 307 00:22:44.960 --> 00:22:48.519 that are you know, have to live with the trauma of growing up with, 308 00:22:48.759 --> 00:22:51.640 you know, losing one or two parents on October seventh, and some 309 00:22:51.720 --> 00:22:56.400 of them being old enough to remember witnessing it. Yeah, And it was 310 00:22:56.720 --> 00:23:00.319 I was watching some of the footage from from that area where you said that 311 00:23:00.319 --> 00:23:06.720 they're taking some of the children and showing them and it's so just surreal because 312 00:23:06.799 --> 00:23:11.720 they just look like kids and they're holding teddy bears and they seem to be 313 00:23:11.880 --> 00:23:15.319 okay, but there's going to be a lot of trauma for these kids. 314 00:23:15.839 --> 00:23:21.039 Yeah, they, I mean, Israel's basically to its credit, they have 315 00:23:21.359 --> 00:23:26.599 put together teams for each family to deal with any you know, to deal 316 00:23:26.640 --> 00:23:30.759 with the symptoms of trauma that will likely come out later, not right after 317 00:23:30.839 --> 00:23:36.960 the release. You know, I know, there was I think maybe you're 318 00:23:37.000 --> 00:23:41.799 talking about the same picture. I remember seeing a little girl, you know, 319 00:23:41.119 --> 00:23:48.519 holding a teddy bear at the first the little blonde girl. That's that's 320 00:23:48.559 --> 00:23:52.759 Emily, her name, her name is Emily Alone and she was she was 321 00:23:52.799 --> 00:23:57.440 released. I think she's only about six, but she was there with other 322 00:23:57.519 --> 00:24:02.920 children as well. I mean, the only saving grace for these children is 323 00:24:02.920 --> 00:24:07.319 that most of them were there with family, with their with one parent, 324 00:24:07.079 --> 00:24:12.880 and in the case of Avigali Dan, you know, she was with another 325 00:24:14.000 --> 00:24:18.440 few children and a mother who took care of her as well. So you 326 00:24:18.480 --> 00:24:23.440 know, they you know, they the fact that they were kept in groups 327 00:24:23.480 --> 00:24:29.240 helped them, you know, cope with the cope with captivity. It's had 328 00:24:29.279 --> 00:24:34.599 their optimism that they would be essentially or ultimately uh you know, released and 329 00:24:34.680 --> 00:24:40.960 freed. So you know, that's maybe the only silver lining of their captivity 330 00:24:41.000 --> 00:24:44.920 is that they most of them were not alone. Yeah, okay, and 331 00:24:45.640 --> 00:24:49.440 we're expecting another group to be released today, So I think, what are 332 00:24:49.480 --> 00:24:55.240 we at thirty nine ish, thirty or nine or forty? Right? We're 333 00:24:55.279 --> 00:24:57.440 at thirty right, We're at thirty nine. And then in a separate deal 334 00:24:57.480 --> 00:25:03.599 with Russia, one male Israeli in his twenties was released. He also has 335 00:25:03.640 --> 00:25:10.559 an incredible story. He escaped from after a bombing, an Israeli Israeli bombing 336 00:25:10.640 --> 00:25:14.039 raid. His hideout got hit, he escaped. He was on the run 337 00:25:14.119 --> 00:25:17.359 for a few days trying to find the border, the Israeli border. Then 338 00:25:17.480 --> 00:25:21.119 Gosin's turned him back over to Hamas and you know, thank god, he 339 00:25:21.200 --> 00:25:26.400 was freed last night. We're supposed to see another eleven come out today, 340 00:25:26.440 --> 00:25:30.319 but there have been some hiccups and there looks like there's going to be a 341 00:25:30.359 --> 00:25:33.880 delay to the release. Instead of happening in the next hour, we might 342 00:25:33.960 --> 00:25:38.079 have to wait a few more hours before the handover begins. Israel says that 343 00:25:38.160 --> 00:25:42.160 Hamas has given them a list that you know, does not include mothers and 344 00:25:42.279 --> 00:25:47.720 children together. And this is one of the basic requirements, so they're trying 345 00:25:47.799 --> 00:25:53.200 to sort that out. But there is optimism that Israel and Hamas will extend 346 00:25:53.240 --> 00:25:59.519 this eeaspire for at least one more day, okay, and when if the 347 00:26:00.160 --> 00:26:07.240 fire is extended, that again it's a slippery slope because it can help give 348 00:26:07.319 --> 00:26:11.000 Hamas more time to regroup and get ready to start the fighting again. Because 349 00:26:11.039 --> 00:26:12.759 nett Ya, who's still saying, when the ceasefire is over, we're going 350 00:26:12.799 --> 00:26:19.680 back at it, that's right. And obviously Israel is making a calculation that 351 00:26:21.119 --> 00:26:25.119 you know, they have achieved enough in the war up until now, and 352 00:26:25.160 --> 00:26:29.480 they're in a strong position where they can afford to you know, hold their 353 00:26:29.480 --> 00:26:33.200 fire for another couple of days and then the overall plan to you know, 354 00:26:33.279 --> 00:26:37.680 push them off out of the Godsen strip that can still be accomplished even if 355 00:26:37.680 --> 00:26:41.400 they give it another two or three or four days. There have been, 356 00:26:41.680 --> 00:26:48.000 you know, no attacks on Israeli soldiers, there haven't been any serious violations 357 00:26:48.079 --> 00:26:53.839 of the agreement. So far. It is going well. So you know, 358 00:26:55.759 --> 00:27:00.319 every every extra day will bring home more innocent people who are abducted, 359 00:27:00.519 --> 00:27:03.880 and right now that seems to be the priority. Okay, Well, we'll 360 00:27:03.920 --> 00:27:08.200 be watching and hope they get the hiccups ironed out, smooth out. We 361 00:27:08.200 --> 00:27:12.799 can get more people home. Thank you so much than it in tandem there. 362 00:27:14.079 --> 00:27:18.319 Thank you, Jordana. We'll talk to you soon. Let's get back 363 00:27:18.319 --> 00:27:19.799 to some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. 364 00:27:19.799 --> 00:27:25.799 An ex convict recently found guilty of shooting an LAPD officer to death is going 365 00:27:25.880 --> 00:27:29.920 to be sentenced today. Sixty five year old Kenneth Gay was found guilty of 366 00:27:29.960 --> 00:27:33.640 first degree murder in August after his case was retried. He killed an LAPED 367 00:27:33.799 --> 00:27:40.440 officer during a traffic stop in West Terrace in nineteen eighty three. He's now 368 00:27:40.440 --> 00:27:45.960 facing life in prison without the possibility of parole. Memorial observances for former First 369 00:27:45.039 --> 00:27:48.960 Lady Rosalind Carter are set to begin in Georgia. The procession will begin in 370 00:27:49.079 --> 00:27:53.119 Plains, Georgia, where Rosalind Carter was born. The Carter family is set 371 00:27:53.119 --> 00:27:56.839 to hold a brief ceremony at the Sumpter Medical Center, where the former First 372 00:27:56.880 --> 00:28:03.119 Lady's remains will be transferred to a herb. ABC's Mike Dubuski says a reeflaying 373 00:28:03.160 --> 00:28:07.559 ceremony is going to be held at the Rosalind Carter Health and Human Sciences Complex 374 00:28:07.599 --> 00:28:11.720 at Southwestern State University before the motorcade arrives at the Jimmy Carter Presidential Library in 375 00:28:11.759 --> 00:28:18.279 Atlanta. Rosalind Carter died on November nineteenth. She was ninety six. Well, 376 00:28:18.279 --> 00:28:26.039 it turns out Wish was no match for The Hunger Games. So Disney's 377 00:28:26.119 --> 00:28:30.200 new movie, the animated movie that we talked about on last week couple of 378 00:28:30.279 --> 00:28:34.559 times, was supposed to be number one at the box office, but The 379 00:28:34.640 --> 00:28:41.839 Hunger Games Songbirds and Snakes finished first. It's now grossed almost one hundred million 380 00:28:41.880 --> 00:28:48.279 dollars domestically in two weeks of release. It won the weekend with forty two 381 00:28:48.319 --> 00:28:52.480 million dollars for the five day holiday frame, and that was more than Whish, 382 00:28:52.599 --> 00:28:56.160 which came in with thirty one point seven million in five days. And 383 00:28:56.400 --> 00:29:03.240 actually even Napole beat Wish out and that's the one with Joaquin Phoenix. It 384 00:29:03.279 --> 00:29:07.039 took in thirty two and a half million dollars for the five day long holiday 385 00:29:07.119 --> 00:29:08.680 weekend. So that's sort of a surprise. I need. I think next 386 00:29:08.680 --> 00:29:11.640 time I talk to Jason, I want to ask him. And maybe you 387 00:29:11.680 --> 00:29:15.200 guys already know this, but how do they make those estimates? Because you 388 00:29:15.359 --> 00:29:17.599 go, oh, it's a Disney movie, it's going to be big, 389 00:29:18.000 --> 00:29:22.400 But how do they estimate how big it's going to be? Yeah, something 390 00:29:22.400 --> 00:29:26.359 we'll ask him about. Israel and Hamas are preparing for a fourth exchange of 391 00:29:26.400 --> 00:29:32.599 hostages for Palestinians as mediators seek to extend a ceasefire in Gaza that's set to 392 00:29:32.680 --> 00:29:37.519 expire after today. Hamas freed seventeen more hostages yesterday on the third day of 393 00:29:37.519 --> 00:29:41.359 the truce. In turn, Israel released thirty nine Palestinian prisoners. A federal 394 00:29:41.359 --> 00:29:45.880 court panel will consider the gag ordered today and former President Trump's civil fraud trial 395 00:29:45.920 --> 00:29:49.880 in New York City. The order was temporarily blocked by an appeals court. 396 00:29:51.279 --> 00:29:55.720 Trump has on several occasions railed against the judge and court staff in his trial, 397 00:29:56.000 --> 00:29:59.720 leading to the gag order being imposed last month. It is cyber Monday. 398 00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:02.000 I might have to look for it. But there are some big deals 399 00:30:02.039 --> 00:30:06.680 out there. Amazon has won a thirty two inch high def TV slashed in 400 00:30:06.759 --> 00:30:10.920 half just eighty dollars. There's also vacuum cleaners, pillows, air pods, 401 00:30:10.960 --> 00:30:15.279 mattresses, furniture, and lots of other electronics, but analysts are warning to 402 00:30:15.400 --> 00:30:19.400 beware of scams and do your research before you buy. We're just minutes away 403 00:30:19.440 --> 00:30:22.839 from handle. On the news this morning, somebody lost it on It's a 404 00:30:22.880 --> 00:30:26.400 Small World. He lost his mind and his clothes. I'll tell you about 405 00:30:26.440 --> 00:30:30.599 that right now. Let's say good morning to ABC News correspondent Tom Rivers. 406 00:30:30.640 --> 00:30:33.680 Good morning Tom. It was supposed to be the trip of a lifetime, 407 00:30:33.680 --> 00:30:37.559 but it's kind of turned into a nightmare for some passengers, oh very much. 408 00:30:37.599 --> 00:30:41.200 So. Can imagine you're getting ready to go on a cruise for maybe 409 00:30:41.240 --> 00:30:47.319 ten days or maybe even two weeks, and something happens with the operator. 410 00:30:47.559 --> 00:30:52.480 Okay, it's not good, but you can bounce back from that. These 411 00:30:52.480 --> 00:30:57.119 individuals, one hundred eleven cabins were sold for people to go on a cruise 412 00:30:57.200 --> 00:31:02.240 for three count them three years, so a lot of them. All these 413 00:31:02.279 --> 00:31:07.079 people you know at the age maybe they're retired. They rented out their houses 414 00:31:07.200 --> 00:31:11.279 or sold their houses in some cases, got rid of some possessions. Some 415 00:31:11.319 --> 00:31:15.400 people got rid of small businesses. And they got a flight to Istanbul, 416 00:31:15.480 --> 00:31:19.720 where this adventure was supposed to begin, and then they started getting the run 417 00:31:19.720 --> 00:31:25.640 around. The firm called Life at Sea Cruises said, well, we got 418 00:31:25.640 --> 00:31:29.240 some delays, just hang loose for a while. A few weeks later they 419 00:31:29.279 --> 00:31:33.920 said, have you guys hook up with the boat in Amsterdam? Now what 420 00:31:33.119 --> 00:31:37.799 happened behind the scenes. The boat they wanted to purchase for this three year 421 00:31:37.839 --> 00:31:42.799 adventure. They didn't secure the funds and was out bid. They went for 422 00:31:42.839 --> 00:31:47.119 a second vessel, they got out bid on that one. They looked at 423 00:31:47.119 --> 00:31:51.680 a third vessel, too small for the amount of passengers. So finally they 424 00:31:51.680 --> 00:31:55.799 threw in the towel said you're not going anywhere. We'll fly you home and 425 00:31:56.160 --> 00:32:00.279 we'll get your money back to you in three months December, January and February. 426 00:32:00.920 --> 00:32:04.799 But you know, if you were living in la and said, okay, 427 00:32:04.839 --> 00:32:07.440 I guess I'm flying home, gosh, I just just rented out my 428 00:32:07.559 --> 00:32:14.480 flat for twelve months, exactly what a tangled, tangled mess. And of 429 00:32:14.480 --> 00:32:17.759 course these things usually end up in court for lengthy periods of time. But 430 00:32:17.839 --> 00:32:22.240 boy, what a mess for the individuals that thought this was going to be 431 00:32:22.240 --> 00:32:25.039 the most amazing way of dealing. I guess with the twilight, you know, 432 00:32:25.160 --> 00:32:28.799 part of their lives. Oh my god. Yeah, And I didn't 433 00:32:28.799 --> 00:32:31.279 even think about that part that you just mentioned, and that's that they probably 434 00:32:31.319 --> 00:32:36.079 either sold their homes or rented them out or shut down their businesses because yeah, 435 00:32:36.160 --> 00:32:38.039 three your crews, you don't need your house for a while. So 436 00:32:38.279 --> 00:32:42.880 how much did the cruise cost? Do we know? We don't seen. 437 00:32:42.920 --> 00:32:46.519 It's tens of thousands, but they say on an average, and I don't 438 00:32:46.559 --> 00:32:50.279 know how they calculate it, you know, high and low, but they 439 00:32:50.319 --> 00:32:54.559 said average couple, you know, paying whatever after you're retired per month, 440 00:32:55.200 --> 00:33:00.559 that would be equivalent in your town to not maybe not l but in your 441 00:33:00.559 --> 00:33:06.039 average American town to say, to say, the cost of a month on 442 00:33:06.440 --> 00:33:09.839 this vessel. So you know you're paying out the same amount, but you 443 00:33:09.880 --> 00:33:14.440 get one heck of an adventure. Yeah, so let's just guesstimate five to 444 00:33:14.480 --> 00:33:16.119 six thousand dollars, Yeah, something like that. Yeah, okay, so 445 00:33:16.200 --> 00:33:20.839 that time's twelve, that's sixty, so two hundred basically about two hundred and 446 00:33:20.839 --> 00:33:25.319 forty thousand dollars. Nope, one hundred and eighty thousand dollars for three lots 447 00:33:25.319 --> 00:33:29.519 of bucks. Any inventive if you get if you get a nice balcony cabin 448 00:33:29.640 --> 00:33:32.680 or you got an internal whatever. But yeah, everything is round figures. 449 00:33:32.720 --> 00:33:37.079 But yeah, it's a lot of money. And as I said at the 450 00:33:37.119 --> 00:33:38.440 top, if you if this were you know, it would be bad if 451 00:33:38.440 --> 00:33:42.160 it was a one week cruise, yeah, you know, but you can 452 00:33:42.200 --> 00:33:46.799 bounce back from No, you're going back to maybe live with your kids or 453 00:33:47.400 --> 00:33:51.640 or a cousin's gonna put you up until you get your life together whatever. 454 00:33:52.440 --> 00:33:54.359 A real mess. Well, and then to add insult to injury, they're 455 00:33:54.400 --> 00:33:57.599 not even giving them a refund right away. They're like, oh, we're 456 00:33:57.640 --> 00:33:59.519 going to spread it out. We'll get you, we'll get you that in 457 00:33:59.559 --> 00:34:02.000 the next few months exactly. So I mean, if if you if you 458 00:34:02.000 --> 00:34:07.239 didn't see the red flags initially on that score as well more red flag so 459 00:34:07.440 --> 00:34:12.159 you know, fingers crossed. They all get their money back. But you 460 00:34:12.159 --> 00:34:14.519 know, I don't know if I'd bet on that or not. Okay. 461 00:34:14.679 --> 00:34:16.559 So, and this isn't it's life at sea cruises. It's not one of 462 00:34:16.599 --> 00:34:21.199 the big ones. It's not like Princess or Caribbean or anything like that. 463 00:34:21.239 --> 00:34:23.360 They're not a filliate no, okay. But again it's a small little world. 464 00:34:23.400 --> 00:34:28.000 These people generally have worked for other cruise lines. They know what's going 465 00:34:28.039 --> 00:34:30.639 on. But the management here really was was caught out. And if you're 466 00:34:30.639 --> 00:34:32.880 gonna, if you're gonna set up a boat. In fact, they were 467 00:34:34.000 --> 00:34:40.400 initially going after a German subsidiary of Carnival Corporation Cruises. They were going after 468 00:34:40.480 --> 00:34:45.639 a vessel that was being put up for sale. If you're gonna do that, 469 00:34:45.679 --> 00:34:49.880 you do that many many months in advance. Why because they said, 470 00:34:49.880 --> 00:34:52.880 in this case they have to get it into drydock. They have to, 471 00:34:52.920 --> 00:34:55.639 you know, go through everything with a fine tooth comb because just this this 472 00:34:55.760 --> 00:34:59.840 vessel is going to be at sea for three years. So you go through 473 00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:04.199 everything, you know, the engine, the plant, everything from top to 474 00:35:04.239 --> 00:35:07.559 bottom, generators, you name it. But you don't do it by saying, 475 00:35:07.559 --> 00:35:10.559 well, let's buy a boat in September and we'll sail it in October. 476 00:35:12.000 --> 00:35:15.480 It doesn't work like that. Yeah. Oh man, I feel really 477 00:35:15.519 --> 00:35:17.760 bad for these people, I know. Yeah, all right, all right, 478 00:35:17.800 --> 00:35:22.360 thank you so much, Tom Rivers, appreciate the information. Take care 479 00:35:22.480 --> 00:35:27.239 boy, that sucks. That's an early non Christmas present, right Hey, 480 00:35:27.320 --> 00:35:32.599 Speaking of Christmas, the Hollywood Christmas Parade it's happening this weekend and it's going 481 00:35:32.639 --> 00:35:37.480 to step off from Orange Drive in Hollywood, Boulevard, following a U shaped 482 00:35:37.559 --> 00:35:40.599 route east to Vine Street, South on Vine to Sunset, West on Sunset 483 00:35:40.599 --> 00:35:45.719 back to Orange.

And 489 00:36:06.920 --> 00:36:08.760 if you're not going to the parade, which is going to obviously cause a 490 00:36:08.840 --> 00:36:15.199 mess for traffic around Hollywood on Sunday, you can watch it on the CW 491 00:36:15.280 --> 00:36:21.239 Network.
