Good morning, this is San Diego Local Pulse for Friday, November 28th, 2025.

We're starting your day with some important public safety updates from around San Diego County. Escondido police are still searching for a hit and run driver who struck an eleven year old child yesterday afternoon on East Washington Avenue. The child suffered serious injuries and was flown to Rady Children's Hospital. Police are asking anyone who witnessed the crash or was in the area around five o'clock yesterday to come forward. If you have dash cam footage or any information, contact the Escondido Police Department right away.

In other law enforcement news, Escondido police responded to an armed incident yesterday afternoon when officers encountered a man wielding a knife on South Center City Parkway. The suspect rushed at officers, forcing them to use force. Video shows the man charged at them multiple times even after being brought down. Officers ultimately used rubber bullets to disarm him. He's currently hospitalized, and no one else was injured in the incident.

We're also learning that the suspect involved in yesterday's shooting of two National Guard members near the White House has a connection to San Diego. The FBI says the suspect is an Afghan national who may have entered the country through an evacuation flight back in 2021. The two Guard members, Sarah Beckstrom and Andrew Wolfe, remain in critical condition after surgery. Investigators say the suspect is not cooperating with authorities at this time.

On the wildlife front, a three year old girl who was bitten by a coyote near the UTC shopping center on Tuesday night has been released from the hospital. She was treated for bites on her arm and hip. Experts are reminding residents that food is scarce for coyotes this time of year, pushing them into populated areas. If you encounter one, make noise and aggressive movements to scare it away.

Looking at your Friday weather, we're expecting partly cloudy skies with a high near 70 degrees. Winds will be light at around five miles per hour or less. It's a great day to get outside and enjoy the mild San Diego sunshine we're known for.

On the sports front, UC San Diego's women's basketball team is heading north tonight to take on the University of Washington. That game tips off at seven o'clock Pacific Time at Alaska Airlines Arena in Seattle.

As we head into the weekend, remember to take advantage of the pleasant weather. Saturday looks to stay in the mid-sixties with clear skies, and Sunday should bring mostly sunny conditions. It's perfect timing as many of us are settling in after the holiday weekend.
