  Under the surface: dozens of vehicles sit below the San Joaquin River in Stockton – An underwater junkyard of sorts lies beneath the San Joaquin River in Stockton. Dozens of vehicles have been dumped or accidentally driven into the river, and the sheriff’s office says they don’t have the resources to get them out. The San Joaquin River is one of the hardest working rivers in California, generating hydropower for millions of homes and providing drinking water for even more. It’s a 330-mile highway for endangered fish like trout and salmon starting in the Sierra and ending in the San Francisco Bay, but the middle of it takes an unfortunate turn. Sacramento County DA investigating if city broke laws on homeless encampments – Sacramento County District Attorney Thien Ho said his office is gathering evidence to assess whether or not the city violated laws regarding the prevalence of homeless encampments in the area. He urged residents Monday to fill out a Neighborhood Nuisance Abatement Questionnaire asking about their concerns over encampments and how they negatively affect their life. The questionnaire lists 16 different encampments across Sacramento and asks residents to check off which one is affecting them. 3 people arrested after 4 injured in Sacramento shooting in May – Three people were arrested after four people were injured in a shooting in Sacramento in May, the Sacramento Police Department said Wednesday. A minor was arrested as well as 19-year-old Davon Lewis-Mills and 20-year-old Demetreice Smith. Lewis-Mills and Smith were booked into Sacramento County Main Jail and the minor was booked in juvenile hall. They are facing attempted murder charges.
