ABC News Crime & Terror Analyst Brad Garrett broke down shocking new details in the NBA gambling scandal — the Portland Trail Blazers’ head coach and a Miami Heat player were arrested alongside 30 others in two sweeping federal cases.

The hour closed with news that Gladstone’s, the iconic Pacific Palisades oceanfront restaurant, will soon be demolished and replaced by a celebrity chef fine-dining venue, signaling the end of a beloved L.A. landmark.

Caleb Lindsey, Director of Operations for R+L Carriers SoCal, highlighted the company’s impressive new Bloomington Service Center, one of 13 California hubs. The state-of-the-art terminal features 325 dock doors and a 350% increase in door capacity over the previous location, plus a multi-bay maintenance shop—a major boost to the company’s Southern California freight operations. Crime continues to surge in Arcadia, where a jewelry store heist saw burglars tunnel through a wall to loot valuables, followed by a home invasion where armed intruders tied up victims, stealing both jewelry and a car. In West Hollywood, a Rolex thief picked the wrong target—his victim turned out to be a professional fighter, who tackled and subdued him on the spot. The NBA gambling scandal deepened as U.S. Attorney Joseph Nocella Jr. condemned the alleged mob-linked insider betting ring involving Rozier and Jones, calling it “one of the most brazen sports corruption schemes since the legalization of online betting.” Officials say the operation manipulated confidential NBA player information to rig wagers and rake in millions.
