Lake Havasu City

Roy Thomas Baker, the hitmaking record producer behind some of the biggest and most proudly polished songs and albums of the rock era — including Queen’s chart-topping, multipart “Bohemian Rhapsody” — died April 12 at his home in Lake Havasu City, Ariz. He was 78.

Joseph Garrido had been spotted using a department-issued vehicle to tow his boat to Lake Havasu City in Arizona for a vacation in 2022 — an offense that, if true, could have gotten him disciplined or even prosecuted.

The trip was also made by the mayor of Lake Havasu City, Cal Sheehy, who was in London to receive his own Freedom of the City of London by the City of London Corporation.

Giles Shilson, City Bridge Foundation's chairman, said: “We were thrilled to be able to show Michael the bridge that replaced the one his grandfather bought, to give him the chance to set the record straight once and for all, and to strengthen our long-standing links with the mayor and Lake Havasu City.”

Temperatures are expected to hit 116 degrees around Lake Mead and Lake Havasu City, 114 degrees in the Morongo Valley and up to 122 degrees in Death Valley — highs that have all inched higher since prior forecasts.
