A mountain lion was killed on the 101 Freeway early Saturday morning.

Preliminary information indicates that the deceased mountain lion was blocking lanes on the southbound side of the freeway near Liberty Canyon Road in Agoura Hills around 5 a.m.

Victim of 1983 murder in Orange County identified as Panamanian woman

The predatory feline died just half a mile from the Wallis Annenberg Wildlife Crossing construction site, which is set to open in 2026, California Gov. Gavin Newsom said last month.

FCC rule would make carriers unlock all phones after 60 days

Mobile phones purchased from a carrier are generally locked to that carrier until either the contract is up or the phone is paid off. To be clear, this is not about opening up your phone using a face, fingerprint or password, but changing settings in its software to allow it to work with different mobile networks.
