A pair of hoax phone calls … probably from the same person … brought a significant sheriffs department response to Malibu last night .
At about 10:30 … a person on a phone reported an assault at Trancas.
That brought over a sheriff’s helicopter and a large number of deputies on the ground.
50 minutes later .. a bomb threat from central Malibu.
Both calls taken seriously and investigated …. both calls now believed to be hoaxes.

We still don’t know the name of the U S Navy cruiser will drop anchor right off the Malibu Pier tomorrow.
But it will be one big ship.
Navy cruisers are 567 feet long.
They cost a billion dollars each … there are 22 of them active in the U-S Navy’s fleet right now … 8 of them are home-ported at San Diego … plus one at Peal Harbor and three in Japan.
They carry Tomahawk cruise missiles … torpedo launchers … standard vertical missiles … and two helicopters.
One of these ships will be bringing 330 officers and sailors to Malibu tomorrow and over the weekend.
