New Disneyland Shows; ‘Patriot Day’ Across CA | SoCal In Brief

ORANGE COUNTY, CA — As the weekend wraps up, we've rounded up all the stories you may have missed Saturday and Sunday to prepare you for Monday.

But before we jump into Southern California’s top stories, Golden State residents should know that Governor Gavin Newsom declared Sunday, Sept. 11 as Patriot Day in California, to remember the 9/11 attacks that occurred 21 years ago.

Newsom ordered all flags on state buildings to be flown at half-staff to pay respects to the nearly 3,000 lives lost and the service members "who answered our nation's call in the aftermath of the attacks," said Newsom in the proclamation.

"We will never forget their sacrifices to protect our cherished freedoms and way of life," Newsom wrote.
