NOAH BIESIADA News Editor
An improvised explosive device (IED) exploded next to the Den- ny’s by the intersection of Harbor Boulevard and Orangethorpe Av- enue just before 9 a.m. on Friday, according to Lt. Jon Radus of the Fullerton Police Department. The explosion was originally thought to be caused by an elec- trical box malfunction by the 911 caller, but officers who arrived on the scene quickly realized it was not and contacted the Orange ELIZA GREEN / DAILY TITAN County Bomb Squad, according The Student Health Services center did not dispose of medical records past the mandated holding period, as discovered in a 2018 CSU Chancellor’s Office audit. to Radus.

The Cal State Fullerton soft- ball team returned to the win- ner’s circle after sweeping UC Riverside to close the regular season and clinch their fourth consecutive Big West title on Saturday. This marks just the third time in conference history that a school finished atop the standings in four straight sea- sons and is the 12th title in CSUF history. While the Titans played well at home this season, as evi- denced by their 20-5 record, the road was not as friendly, going 9-6 on the road prior to Friday’s series opener against UCR. In game one, CSUF defeat- ed the Highlanders 5-3 on a big performance from catcher Julia Valenzuela who tied her sea- son-high in hits in a game with three to complement her four RBIs. Valenzuela drove in the game’s first run on a double to left center field to bring home shortstop Sam Kennedy. The La Mirada native capped off her four-RBI night with a two-run home run in the top of the sixth inning.
