Hour 3 (9.09) Santa Anita pulled its permit to cut 34 protected oaks for the 2028 Olympic course. Plus: Barry Melrose, who took the Gretzky Kings to the Cup Final, dead at 70. (161 characters)

8:05 — A 25-year-old was arrested Monday night near Kris Jenner's place after her private security stopped him in the neighborhood. Deputies booked him on suspicion of stalking; he's charged with one misdemeanor count of trespassing. And in Torrance, 499 condo owners each got a bill for more than $49,000 to cover $19 million in re-piping, elevators and a full podium rebuild.

8:20 — Barry Melrose has died at 70. The mullet, the suits, twenty-seven years at ESPN — but in this town he's the guy who walked in as a rookie head coach in 1992 and took Gretzky's Kings to the franchise's first Stanley Cup Final.

8:35 — Malibu declared a local emergency after a sinkhole roughly 30 by 60 feet and 25 to 30 feet deep opened in a driveway on Sea Level Drive. Down in Dana Point, eight homes on Beach Road are red-tagged and one has already been demolished. Meanwhile Santa Anita has hit pause on its permit to remove 34 protected oaks for the Olympic cross-country course, and LADOT wants to cut Sunset down to one lane each way from Silver Lake to downtown.

8:50 — The humidity is the whole story. Downtown's heat index topped out around 116 today, which is why 98 degrees felt like standing in a dryer.
