It's a tough call. And a call that MUST be made in split seconds. The weekend hostage situation and shootout at a Trader Joe's in Silver Lake, left the young store manager dead. But by whose bullets? The suspect's, now in police custody and booked on suspicion of murder, or the LAPD in what the military would call a friendly fire incident. We don't know as yet which. But we will go In Depth on police procedures. Also on the show, first we learn that retired football players often suffer brain injuries from years of brutal playing. Now, new research shows military personnel may also suffer the same thing.

Later on the show, President Trump going all upper case in a Twitter counter threat aimed at Iran. But he also threatens some former US officials with loss of security clearances for taking aim at his dealings with Russia. So, we will go In Depth with former White House Chief of Staff Leon Panetta. And then, yes, it's HOT here in L.A. But over in Europe, a heat wave is leading to the unthinkable in Germany!
