Food fight
Bike patrol officers responded to an assault and disturbance at a restaurant located in the Westwood Village Shopping Center shortly after noon on May 23. Dispatchers informed officers that the suspect had thrown food at an employee and was last seen fleeing the scene with an unknown female.

When officers arrived at the scene the complainant explained that the suspect had walked into the restaurant and began gathering up food orders that weren’t his off the line. The suspect, who was described as a tall, mixed race man with a full sleeve tattoo on one arm and wearing gym clothes, took the grabbed the food orders and walked outside. Two employees, a young male and young female, ran outside to stop the suspect and get the food back.

As they approached the suspect the suspect threw the food at the female employee and ran at the male employee with balled fists like he was going to strike him. At that point the female employee managed to get between the suspect and the male employee and keep them separated. After that the suspect walked away.

The assisted living facility planned by Aegis Living for 4700 SW Admiral Way to replace the now closed Life Care Center is up for Administrative Design Review and the plans prepared by GGLO Architects are available for public review. The plan calls for 48 assisted living apartments and 32 memory care apartments. Parking would be provided for six vehicles "at grade" with 33 more inside the structure. The building itself would be 3 stories. It is project # 3017747.

In an online document a description of the facility states:

"Both the Assisted Living and Memory Care units will be grouped into smaller neighborhoods that focus on community activities and dining as well as events with the other neighborhoods. These spaces will include dining, living rooms, activity rooms, and a cafe – all of which are distributed throughout the building which will activate various portions of the façade. Outdoor gardens and terraces will be provided, allowing residents to have access to the outdoors.
