The Burbank Follower, Vol. 2, No. 26

UPDATE ON BURBANK SHOOTING
Updates on the apparent murder-suicide in Burbank early Friday morning. Roxanne Paul, who looks to be the murder victim, is the mother of two young children. Poor kids. The Leader article has a bit more in the way of details than the Daily News. Daily News. Leader.

GET ON THE BUS
A Sherman Oaks resident takes the Orange Line and Burbank Bus to Bob Hope Airport, pronouncing it just fine. Zach Behrens of LAist also calls the Media City "Bizarrebank," which is something I hadn't heard of. I suppose if you live in Sherman Oaks, most everything else is bizarre, though. LAist.

EVACUATION PROCEDURES TO BE UPDATED
Emergency procedures are slated to be tightened following an electrical fire Monday at John Burroughs High. School officials, believing the fire alarm to be false, kept students inside the school for 15 minutes. Leader. Leader Editorial.

PLATT PROJECT FACING FORECLOSURE
A proposed office and residential development on Olive Avenue faces foreclosure later this month, potentially dooming the project. Developers scaled back the Platt development in 2005 after residents complained the increased traffic and noise would be bad for the neighborhood. Leader.
