According to Police in South Pasadena, two teenagers said they were willing to die in a shootout after killing as “many people as possible.” They’re under arrest, but no guns have been found. We’ll talk with the Mayor and ask a specialist about how to detect any warning signs.

Also tonight, Austin Beutner talks about his plans as the new publisher of the Los Angeles Times. Will he beef up local coverage? What about foreign news? And what happened to Beutner’s plans to buy the paper?
