Speculation among Malibu High School students began early Thursday morning. Surely school would be canceled, they told parents — perhaps based more on wish than intel. What are the odds the power was cut? What if a fire broke out? The Santa Ana winds picked up through the afternoon. Gusts slammed into Malibu homes with force. Lights went out across town as Southern California Edison cut power. Around 5 p.m., Watch Duty notifications lit up residents’ screens: A fire had started on the other side of the mountains. The winds were blowing it toward the coast. Volunteers with the Local Brigade were staged in the parking lot of Trancas Country Market along the coast, awaiting orders from the L. A. County Fire Department. A column of thick smoke, made red by the setting sun, rose over the hillside. In a town of fire survivors — where many have lost their home in blazes at least once, if not twice — a quiet, familiar feeling filled the neighborhoods: Here we go again. By Friday morning, it became clear the Bryson fire was not on the verge of becoming another Woolsey or Palisades fire. It nonetheless triggered a flood of trauma and emotions.

Police said he was unable to perform field sobriety tests due to his injuries and vomited before he was placed under arrest, records show. A police report filed in court said officers arrived at the crash to find Oliver’s Lincoln Navigator overturned. Oliver ”was sitting on a chair that a civilian had brought out for him,” the report said. “Shawn was observed to have a laceration on the right side of his head and was bleeding.”Police also spotted a badly damaged gray Camry and an extensively damaged red Camry. The latter vehicle “was pushed back, causing it to collide into another parked vehicle,” police said. “In total, 5 parked vehicles were involved.”One witness, police said, described being behind Oliver’s Navigator at a red light before the crash. “The witness stated that when the light turned green, the Navigator remained stopped, he then had to put his car in reverse in order to see if the light was green,” police said.
