CityWatch Editor CITY OF INDUSTRY - A lot of bombs, bangs and booms are expected in Industry tonight as U.S. military will continue with urban training exercises. Information first published by the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Industry Station was very vague, but they announced training would last until 1 a.m., although other cities noted the military exercises commenced around 8 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. June 4. The precise location for the Industry exercises was not given. If recent urban training exercises in nearby cities will be any indicator, City of Industry will likely see multiple military helicopters flying low. The sound of simulated gunfire and flash-bang grenades will be heard. The late, vague notices are likely intended by the U.S. military and have gotten the ire of Pasadena Council Member Rick Cole who criticized the lack of information sharing. He added that the city was ordered to not publicly release information until 5:30 p.m. Similar exercises took place in Irvine June 3 while Pasadena exercises were taking place. ********** Copyright 2026.
