Police beat
Clerk threatened
A foreign-born employee of a Hermosa business was threatened on Sunday morning by a man who hurled the name of Osama Bin Laden, police said. The man yelled "remember my face, I will kill you," a police report stated, adding that he then "mentioned something about Bin Laden" that the clerk did not understand.
Suspicious package
Hermosa Detectives were calling on a Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department crime lab to examine a package received by a Strand resident on Saturday. The package was addressed to a name other than the resident’s, and the name was spelled out using letters cut out separately from various publications, a police report stated. The FBI was contacted, but declined to investigate, police said.
Sit back, relax
A handcuffed man in the back of a Hermosa police car allegedly kicked out the rear driver’s side window on Sunday, officers said. A family disturbance had led to the man’s arrest, police said.
