SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) -- It seems as if almost every city in the Bay Area is plagued by the surge in organized retail crime. One of the problems is those who commit petty theft are arrested and often back on the street on the same day -- ready to steal again.

If that name sounds familiar, it should. Just two days before the Oct. 10 Dior burglary, she was arrested for shoplifting. She was one of 11 arrested by police in a theft suppression sting at Pleasant...

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — The streaky Texas Rangers are suddenly headed the wrong way again.The 10-3 loss to the Houston Astros in Game 4 on Thursday night that evened the AL Championship Series at 2-all was the second defeat in a row for Texas — both at home — after a 7-0 postseason start.Now Texas has to stop the Astros’ seven-game winning streak at Globe Life Field in Game 5 on Friday, or the defending champs would go home needing one win for a third consecutive World Series trip.Not that going home is much of a comfort for Houston, just 40-45 at Minute Maid Park, postseason included. Neither home team has taken a lead in the first four games of the first postseason meeting between the instate AL West rivals.

After Corey Seager’s third-inning solo homer got Texas even, the Astros immediately scored four more, capped by José Abreu’...

DENVER (KDVR) — New numbers from Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District show Democrat Adam Frisch is outraising incumbent Lauren Boebert.In recent months, Frisch has brought in nearly $3.4 million compared to Boebert, who raised $850,000 in the same three-month timeframe. FOX31 political analysts disagree on whether the gap in fundraising could lead to a gap in the polls, or even election results, this week on “Colorado Point of View.”Democratic strategist Andy Boian highlighted the 554-vote differential in the November 2022 race that saw Boebert keep her seat."The reality is Adam (Frisch) is raising so much more money than the incumbent that it really poses the question … does she really want the seat? Obviously, really bad press in the last quarter for Lauren Boebert," Boian said.
