The outages began around 5:30 a.m. PT, impacting mobile and 5G home internet services. Technicians were deployed to restore service by 9 a.m. This incident marked Verizon's second disruption in two days. The company is collaborating with community leaders to address these vandalism issues. Recently, Verizon appointed former PayPal CEO Dan Schulman as its new CEO to navigate slowing wireless growth. Verizon said "acts of vandalism" were responsible for widespread service disruptions that affected customers across the Greater Los Angeles area on Friday. Customers across the U.S., particularly along the West Coast, experienced service disruptions Friday morning, with many reporting problems with mobile phone service and 5G home internet, FOX 11 LA reported. "Earlier this morning, multiple fiber cuts due to acts of vandalism caused service interruptions for some customers in Greater Los Angeles County," a Verizon spokesperson told FOX Business in an email. **VERIZON NAMES FORMER PAYPAL BOSS DAN SCHULMAN AS CEO** FILE PHOTO: Verizon said "acts of vandalism" were responsible for widespread service disruptions that affected customers across Greater Los Angeles County on Friday.

"We know how much people rely on Verizon, and we are actively working with community leaders on ways to stop these actions." Outage reports began around 5:30 a.m. PT on Friday, FOX 11 reported, citing outage-tracking site DownDetector. By around 9 a.m., a Verizon spokesperson said technicians were working to restore service, and new outage reports seemed to slow down. The outage marked the company's second service disruption in as many days, according to FOX 11. **VERIZON ENDS DEI PROGRAMS, DIVERSITY GOALS AS IT SEEKS APPROVAL FOR FRONTIER ACQUISITION** FILE PHOTO: The skyline of Los Angeles is pictured at night.

From January through the end of August, there were 45,053 reported crimes across areas served by the L.A. County Sheriff's Department – a more than 10% decrease from 49,498 during the same period last year, according to department statistics. **VERIZON SUES JERSEY SHORE TOWN TO INSTALL 5G POLES ALONG BEACH WITH 'OVERWHELMING OPPOSITION' FROM RESIDENTS** FILE PHOTO: A Verizon service truck is pictured in New York City.
