• RivCo Man Suspected Of Possessing Tens Of Thousands Of Synthetic Drugs: Sheriff (patch.com) — Law enforcement seized more than 50,000 suspected counterfeit M-30 pills from a home in east Perris, leading to the arrest of a 49-year-old resident on suspicion of narcotics trafficking. Deputies served a search warrant on Lakeview Drive near East Rider Street, and the suspect was booked into the Byrd Detention Center as investigators continue probing the alleged operation. 
• Peloton Workers' Settle Labor Suit (mynewsla.com) — Peloton workers at the company’s Perris warehouse and distribution center were part of a recently settled set of lawsuits claiming unpaid overtime, missed breaks, and unreimbursed expenses. A Los Angeles Superior Court judge has now dismissed the state case after a broader settlement was finalized, though full terms were not made public. The claims also covered workers at several Northern California warehouses.
