About 50,000 people in Orange County remain under evacuation orders, and it is unclear when the orders will be lifted. A malfunctioning tank at an aerospace plant in Garden Grove triggered the facility’s automatic sprinkler system, raising concerns about a potential chemical leak or explosion. Water was sprayed onto an overheated 34,000-gallon tank as investigators work to stabilize the site before examining the cause of the hazardous leak. In Kings County, a 21-year-old boxer, Shavana Trejo, won the California Golden Gloves State Championship and later competed in the National Golden Gloves Tournament of Champions. She described boxing as a way to release negative energy after being bullied and suffering injuries as a child.
"Some 50,000 people in Orange County are still under evacuation orders. It's unclear when they might be lifted."
"A malfunctioning tank at an aerospace plant has the potential of a chemical leak or explosion. An incident at GKN Aerospace, a manufacturer of components for commercial and military aircraft, triggered the facility's automatic sprinkler system. Investigators are expected to examine the cause of the hazardous leak once the site has been fully stabilized."
"Her punches have paid off. Last month, Trejo won the California Golden Gloves State Championship in Pasadena for her weight class, which is 112 to 119 pounds. And then earlier this month, she was in Tulsa, Oklahoma, competing in the National Golden Gloves Tournament of Champions. The road to Tulsa hasn't been easy."
""I've been through hell, honestly. I've been through a lot of ups and downs in my life," she said. "Just hitting the bag. It's like you're releasing bad, negative energy." Trejo said she was a shy, quiet kid, and she was bullied a lot. "I would come home with black eyes. I would come home with my hair cut, slime thrown in my hair," she said."
