• Santiago football gets big plays on defense to beat Elsinore (pressenterprise.com) — Elsinore High's football team fell just short in a 33-26 road loss to Corona Santiago, despite piling up more yards and a late comeback push. Costly special-teams mistakes and a pick-six doomed the Tigers, who now head into a much-needed bye week before opening Mountain Pass League play with a city rivalry game at Temescal Canyon.
   

• Police Say Woman Used Late Grandmother's Death Certificate to Put Herself on an Unrelated Woman's $1M Home Title, Then Tried to Sell It for $625K (wealthofgeeks.com) — A Lake Elsinore woman is accused of using her late grandmother's death certificate to fraudulently add herself to an unrelated Riverside homeowner's $1 million property title and then trying to sell it. Riverside police arrested her in Lake Elsinore and are urging local property owners to keep recorder information current and watch for suspicious title changes or unauthorized real-estate activity.
   

• Southern California truckers stung by record-setting diesel prices (pressenterprise.com) — Soaring diesel prices and war-driven supply strains are squeezing Southern California truckers, and one Lake Elsinore-based firm, A&B Transportation, has already filed for bankruptcy. Industry leaders warn that smaller operators are especially vulnerable as fuel surcharges, refinery closures, and long payment delays pile up, potentially raising costs for local consumers and making California a tougher place to do business.
