Last night (6/12/26 @ 2031), BC15-3, CH13-2, E15-2, and E13-1 responded to a head-on collision on Highway 88 involving two vehicles that overturned and required extrication. Crews worked quickly to assist multiple patients suffering major injuries. Tragically, the incident also resulted in one fatality. We extend our thoughts to all those affected and remind everyone to stay alert, drive safely, and always be aware of their surroundings while traveling.📸 Waterloo Morada Fire District

Multiple big rigs and employees’ cars in the parking lot are also on fire. The footage appears to show the fire starting on a pallet that was stored on the top rack of the Med Line warehouse. It is also being reported that when firefighters arrived, the sprinkler system was not working. 🔥 #tracy #california

Stockton Man Wanted For Deadly Hit n Run The California Highway Patrol (CHP) is seeking the public’s assistance in locating a suspect involved in a fatal hit-and-run crash that occurred on Interstate 80 near Clipper Gap. On May 26, 2026, at approximately 11:12 p.m., CHP officers responded to a major injury crash on Interstate 80 east of Clipper Gap. A preliminary investigation determined that a commercial vehicle traveling westbound collided with the center-divider, causing its trailer to separate and enter the eastbound lanes. The trailer subsequently collided with a Ford F-150 that was traveling eastbound. The driver of the Ford F-150 died as a result of the crash. Following the crash, the driver of the commercial vehicle fled the scene on foot and has not been located. “This crash resulted in the tragic loss of a life, and our investigators remain committed to locating the individual responsible,” said Captain Andy Beasley, commander of the CHP Auburn Area. “We are asking anyone with information about the suspect’s whereabouts to contact us. Even the smallest detail may help bring this case to a resolution and provide answers to the victim’s loved ones.” Through the investigation, CHP investigators identified the suspect as Robert Bell, age 60, of Stockton, CA. The commercial carrier involved has cooperated fully with investigators and continues to assist with the ongoing investigation. The CHP is asking anyone with information regarding Robert Bell’s whereabouts to contact the CHP Auburn Area office at (530) 401-9910. The investigation remains active and anyone with additional information related to this crash is encouraged to come forward. The victim was identified as 57-year-old Colfax resident Michael Fiscus. #stockton #auburn #colfax

The Sacramento, Modesto and Fresno Bee recently published an editorial declaring that Katie Porter’s failed campaign for governor was “a loss for all Californians.” That’s quite a claim for a candidate who received roughly 5% of the vote. The issue isn’t that The Bee supported Katie Porter. Editorial boards are free to endorse whoever they want. We certainly do. The issue is that The Bee appears unable to distinguish between its own preferences and the pulse of California voters. According to the editorial, Porter was “obviously the best candidate for the job.” Yet voters placed her far behind Steve Hilton, Xavier Becerra, Tom Steyer and Chad Bianco. Apparently, it was only “obvious” to about one in every twenty voters. Curiously absent from the editorial is any discussion of the controversies that followed Porter throughout the campaign, including widely reported mashed potatoes assault allegations and the widely circulated video in which Porter shouted, “Get out of my f—ing shot!” before continuing to reprimand a staff member. The irony is hard to miss. The Bee warns readers about corporate influence in politics while publishing the same opinion across its corporate-owned newspapers in Sacramento, Modesto and Fresno. The editorial was intended to defend Katie Porter. Instead, it became a case study in why trust in corporate media continues to decline. As usual the small group of people who run the Bee’s are as out of touch as the 5% who supported the Mashed Potato Marauder. And why 209 Times is the largest most impactful media outlet in the Central Valley in under a decade. Maybe they’d all be better off selling hot potatoes instead. 🥔 #modesto #fresno #sacramento
