Philip Teresi gives us his take on today’s daily buzz question. Do you support or oppose automatic registration for the U.S. military draft?

A Tulare County deputy was fatally shot while serving an eviction notice in Porterville Thursday morning. The suspect, identified as 60-year-old David Morales, opened fire with a high-powered rifle and is currently barricaded inside the home.

Three Porterville Unified campuses—Westfield Elementary, Sequoia Middle, and Monache High—were secured as deputies, Porterville PD, SWAT, and negotiators responded to a nearby deputy-involved shooting and barricaded suspect. Parents were advised to wait for official pickup instructions; buses won’t run, and walking home is not permitted while the response continues.
