Listen "San Diego Remains Discovery, Escondido Hit-and-Run and Winter Weather Forecast"
Episode Synopsis
Good morning, this is San Diego Local Pulse for Thursday, December 4th, 2025.We're starting this morning with a developing investigation that has authorities across San Diego working around the clock. Human remains were discovered yesterday at a property in the Southcrest neighborhood after California Highway Patrol received a tip. The FBI moved in quickly and served a search warrant, recovering the remains from the site. Right now, investigators with San Diego Police's cold case and missing persons unit are working to identify the remains and determine the cause of death. A 74-year-old man named Dwight William Rhone has been named as a person of interest in the connection. Rhone is already in custody and facing charges related to the killing of a man named Bernardo Moreno. Authorities haven't yet revealed whether the remains belong to one person or multiple people, but the investigation is ongoing with multiple agencies involved.In other crime news making headlines, we're following the case of a hit and run that claimed the life of an 11-year-old boy in Escondido last Wednesday. Young Ayden Torres was chasing a ball into the street when he was struck. The suspect, 44-year-old Hector Balderas, is scheduled to appear in court this morning. Immigration and Customs Enforcement announced they've lodged a detainer, noting that Balderas was in the country illegally and had been previously removed four times.On the weather front, we're looking at a beautiful day ahead. Expect sunny skies with highs reaching around 70 degrees and winds coming in at about 7 miles per hour. This morning started a bit cool with temperatures in the low 50s, but we'll warm up nicely as we move through the afternoon. One thing to note if you're heading to the beach, the National Weather Service has issued a Beach Hazards Statement through Friday morning due to very high astronomical tides combined with elevated surf up to 5 to 6 feet. La Jolla is seeing predicted high tides at 7.1 feet this morning around 7:34 AM, so we're advising folks to stay out of the water to avoid hazardous swimming conditions.The holiday spirit is in full swing around San Diego. SeaWorld is celebrating the season with their Christmas festivities, and the Salvation Army has been out collecting donations. We saw their volunteers ringing bells at a local Walmart in Murphy Canyon yesterday, helping to raise funds for those in need.Looking ahead to the next few days, we'll continue to see sunny conditions with temperatures staying in the comfortable 60s and 70s. It's a great time to get outside and enjoy what our beautiful San Diego winter has to offer.Thank you so much for tuning in to San Diego Local Pulse.
