As night falls this weekend, the delicious scent of Asian-inspired street food will fill the air as a lively open-air market returns to the Convoy District, one of San Diego's most ethnically diverse neighborhoods.

The third annual San Diego Night Market – a celebration of Asian culture, food and live entertainment – goes down Saturday from 4 p.m. to midnight, and again Sunday from 3 p.m. to 9 p.m., at Kearny Office Park at 8304 Clairemont Mesa Blvd. 

Hosted by the Convoy District Partnership, the unique event is designed to stimulate economic growth in the area while showcasing everything the cool, diverse Convoy District has to offer.

More than 50 vendors will line the area, selling Asian-inspired treats, including boba drinks, specialty tofu, Korean tacos, Chinese pancakes and baos, Vietnamese garlic noodles and banh mi sandwiches, just to name a few dishes.

Other vendors will also sell handmade goods and apparel.

A stage at the center of the action will feature dance and other musical performances throughout the Night Market, plus a late-night laser show. Organizers say the event will also include carnival games.

After the fest, the 21+ crowd can head to the Satellite Beer Garden to enjoy a “Convoy Beer Flight” and after-party bites at nearby businesses Common Theory, Nolbu SD and O’Brien’s Pub.

The outdoor market draws a large crowd, and this weekend should be no different. Organizers say there will be free parking and shuttle services at the event, available on a first-come first-serve basis.

Parking is available at the following two locations: Ashford University's Sunroad parking structure (Sunroad Centrum Lane) and the front part of the San Diego Unified School District's Physical Plant Operations parking structure (4860 Ruffner St.).

Free shuttles will take people from those parking locations to the Night Market, operating non-stop on Saturday between 4 p.m. and 1 a.m., and Sunday between 3 p.m. and 10 p.m.

Admission to the San Diego Night Market is $2 per person. Kids 12 and under get in free. Fast-Pass tickets can be bought ahead of time here.

The Coast Guard has suspended the search for a family that disappeared off of the Florida coast, Capt. Gregory Case announced Saturday.

Ace Kimberly, 45, and his three teenage children — Rebecca Kimberly, 17, Donald Kimberly, 15, and Roger Kimberly, 13 — disappeared Sunday afternoon after departing Sarasota for Fort Myers in a 29-foot sailboat. They were last seen in the Guld of Mexico, the Associate Press reported.

The Coast Guard, alongside partner agencies, conducted more than 100 searches covering 33,830 square miles for more than 250 hours in search for the missing family.

Two bodied recovered from the waters off southwest Florida have been identified as Ace Kimberly and his daughter Rebecca, Case said at a news conference Saturday. Kimberly's two teenage sons remain missing.

"I made the very difficult decision to suspend the active search operations for the Kimberly family," said Case, St. Petersburg Commander. "It is with a heavy heart and sincere condolences to the family and friends that I do this. This is probably the most difficult decision I ever have to make in this position."

A Del Mar family is fighting for their son’s freedom after they say he was taken as a political prisoner in Venezuela.

Francisco Marquez Lara is a dual citizen of the United States and Venezuela. He and his friend, Gabriel San Miguel, were arrested on June 19 while in Venezuela.

Now, his parents, Maria-Luz Lara and Ricardo Marquez, are on a mission to free their son and his friend from jail.

Francisco’s mother spoke exclusively to NBC 7 on Friday about their fight and the emotional toll the capture of their son has taken on them.

“I have to say, I broke. I couldn’t stand it, this is so unfair,” Maria said.

The mother told NBC 7 her son is a graduate of Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government and works as a lawyer and an activist. He was also the Chief of Staff to the Mayor of El Hatillo in Venezuela.

At the time of their arrest, Francisco and San Miguel were traveling through Cojedes, Venezuela, to get recall signatures to oust President Nicolas Maduro, who is facing backlash over inflation and food shortages.

They were halted at a checkpoint and arrested for carrying political pamphlets and $3,000 worth of Bolivars, the currency used in Venezuela.

“We’re in dictatorship with facade of democracy. There is no media,” Maria said, speaking of the Venezuelan government.

The money the men were carrying was being used to help fund their mission.

But despite the hardship of being away from her son, Maria says she is proud of him.

“We come from a family of three generations of fighting against dictatorships,” she said. “He inherited that thirst for making things right.”

Maria says Francisco and Gabriel’s initial court appearance was cancelled without explanation and they don't have access to anyone, including lawyers and family. Both men also keep getting moved to different prisons.

She says they are really worried and that Francisco’s safety is not guaranteed.

Maria is scheduled to fly to Venezuela Saturday in hopes of being able to free her son.

U.S. State Department spokesman John Kirby said they are aware of the reports of Francisco and Gabriel’s arrest.

"The Department of State takes its obligation to assist U.S. citizens abroad seriously. We provide all possible consular assistance whenever a U.S. citizen is detained abroad," he said. "As in any country where a U.S. citizen has been detained, we expect the Government of Venezuela to accord any U.S. citizen the full extent of his rights to due process under international and Venezuelan law."

But Francisco's family says the Venezuelan government is not doing that.

Democrat Hillary Clinton holds a five-point advantage over Republican Donald Trump after becoming her party's presumptive presidential nominee, according to the latest national NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll.

Forty-six percent of registered voters back Clinton, versus 41 percent who support Trump - slightly up from Clinton's three-point lead in May, 46 percent to 43 percent.

Clinton Leads Trump among African Americans, Latinos and women. Trump meanwhile, has the has the edge among whites, men and independents.

People inside Chula Vista bank experienced frightening moments Friday when a man wielding a hammer and a flare gun tried to rob the business, using rope to tie the doors shut from inside.

The Chula Vista Police Department (CVPD) said suspect Clinton Thinn, 29, walked into a Bank of America located at 295 E St. just before 6 p.m. holding a claw hammer and a flare gun. Thinn demanded money from a teller and when that teller refused him, he confronted a bank security guard and fired a round from his flare gun toward the guard.

CVPD investigators said employees inside the bank ran for cover, locking themselves inside a room behind security glass to escape from Thinn.

While in hiding, the scared group called 911 and reported the robbery in progress. As they waited for officers to arrive, Thinn allegedly used his hammer to attempt to force entry into the secure area. When he couldn’t smash his way through, Thinn demanded money again from the employees through the glass and threatened to harm them, witnesses told police.

At this point, CVPD officers descended on the bank and realized Thinn had used rope to tie the entrance doors shut from the inside.

Officers were able to open the doors. Thinn was arrested on the spot without further incident, the CVPD said.

None of the employees inside the bank were hurt.

Thinn, the lone suspect in this attempted bank heist, was booked into San Diego Central Jail on several felony charges including using a person as a shield, second-degree burglary, possession of an explosive device and false imprisonment.

Thinn’s bail was set at $100,000. He’s scheduled to appear in court Wednesday.

The incident remains under investigation and anyone with information can call the CVPD at (619) 691-5151.

Three men were killed after a boat carrying seven passengers capsized off the Catalina Island coast Saturday morning, officials said. 

"It's upsetting because it could happen to anyone," said Spike Ivens, who helped rescue the fisherman. "There were some freak waves. The wave that grabbed them -- it picked them up and tossed them."

The men killed in the accident were identified by the Los Angeles County Coroner's office as Kyung Kim, 47, of Los Angeles; Jason Noh, 62, of Buena park; and Young Park, 64, of Los Angeles.

The overturned boat was reported at 9:30 a.m. near Salta Verde Point on the backside of Catalina, according to the Los Angeles County Fire Department and the U.S. Coast Guard. 

Officials said a good Samaritan, later identified as Ivens, rescued two of the boaters and reported seeing another person on the rocks. The Coast Guard launched a helicopter crew and rescued the missing boater.

"They were floating on the surface of the water," Ivens said. "They were out sorts."

Ivens helped flag down fisherman, and pulled some of the men aboard the Pacific Quest where crew members treated them with first aid.

The Coast Guard and LA County Lifeguards arrived and rescued one fisherman stuck on a rock and another who swam to shore.

Four men total aboard the 22-foot skiff were rescued and taken to area hospitals. Two were in critical condition. Crews recovered three bodies from the water. 

"It wasn't their fault, but maybe they were at the wrong place at the wrong time," Ivens said.

Waves in the area were reported to be between 4 and 6 feet.

Eight children and two adults were injured after a roller coaster derailed and fell off the tracks at an amusement park in Scotland Sunday, NBC News reported.

Photos taken by bystanders showed the cars of the Tsunami roller coaster at M&D's amusement park in North Lanarkshire, Scotland, on the ground in a heap.

Officials initally said 11 people were injured, but authorities later confirmed that only were being treated at three hospitals. Their conditions aren't known. 

Tsunami is Scotland's only inverted roller coaster, according to M&D's website. It reaches speeds of up to 40 mph, the website said.

"The ride came crashing down, landing on the kids' bike area," Ben Genovese told NBC News' U.K. partner ITV News. "Some kids got out quickly, unscathed. Others looked to be hurt."

Traffic on the southbound Interstate 15 in Fallbrook was briefly interrupted Sunday when a pursuit came down the freeway, California Highway Patrol (CHP) officers said.

The suspect was taken into custody at 12:58 p.m., officers said. The pursuit had been going on since noon and caused some congestion near Old Highway 395.

Andrew J. Carr, 36 of Bonsall, approached an LA County Fire Chief in Long Beach and made threats against his life Sunday morning, CHP said.

The Long Beach Police Department pursued Carr’s 2016 Ford van after he fled the scene.

Carr drove recklessly through Long Beach then onto the freeway where Santa Fe Springs and then Riverside CHP took over the pursuit.

He continued down I-15 where Oceanside CHP took over.

There were several unsuccessful attempts to spike strip his van, but he finally ran out of gas at Camino Del Rey under 1-15.

Carr refused commands to get out of his van, and resisted arrest even when officers broke the driver’s side window with a beanbag gun.

A San Diego Sheriff K9 was deployed and assisted in taking Carr into custody.

He was charged with Felony Evading and resisting arrest, and was booked into the Vista Detention Facility.

He may face additional charges pending the outcome of the investigation.

A Jerusalem court on Sunday sentenced a radical ultra-Orthodox Israeli Jew who fatally stabbed a teenage girl at a gay pride parade last year to life in prison plus 31 years, NBC News reported. 

Yishai Schlissel was already convicted by the city’s District Court for the murder of 16-year-old Shira Banki and the attempted murder of seven others. In their rulings, the judges noted he showed no remorse for his actions. 

Schlissel was released just weeks before the July 30 parade, after he stabbed several people at the pride parade in 2005. 

A majority of Jerusalem's residents are observant Jews, Muslims or Christians, communities whose members mostly frown on homosexuality. But violent attacks on gay people are rare.

Ten times now the Padres have had a chance to sweep a series. Ten times they have failed.

The Padres lost to the Reds 3-0 on Sunday at Great American Ballpark, making them 0-10 in games where they’ve been in position to sweep the other team. It’s also the 11th time they’ve been shut out this season (but the first since May 23). Cincinnati starting pitcher Anthony DeSclafani looked a lot like an early 1990’s version of Jose Rijo.

DeSclafani tossed 8.0 innings, striking out five without a single walk. All five of the Padres hits were singles and when they did get on base they had a lot of trouble staying there.

The Friars had three runners thrown out on the basepaths. One of them came in the 2nd inning when Melvin Upton Jr., who had been hit by a pitch, got a good jump in his attempt to steal second base. Reds catcher Tucker Burkhart made about as good a throw as a catcher can make, putting the ball right on the bag an instant before Upton slid in to the inning-ending tag.

The other two, however, were simply bad baseball plays. Alexei Ramirez singled in the 1st inning but then decided to try and steal second before DeSclafani started his move to the plate. Ramirez was thrown out easily trying to return to first base. In the 5th inning Upton was picked off first after his leadoff single.

Padres starter Luis Perdomo made one of the better starts of his young career. Perdomo went 6.0 innings, allowing just three runs and striking out five. What’s really promising is he was able to avoid the big inning.

Perdomo’s main struggle has been getting runners out when they reach base and preventing the dreaded snowball effect. Of the 10 baserunners he allowed only three of them scored and one was on a solo home run by Reds slugger Jay Bruce.

Right fielder Matt Kemp was not in the lineup in Cincy. Padres Manager Andy Green decided with a day off on Monday and another one on Thursday he’d like to let Kemp get a long rest. Alexi Amarista started in right field and made a nice defensive play on a fly ball against the fence in foul territory but at the plate went 0-for-3 with a strikeout.

The Padres start a 2-game series against the Orioles on Tuesday at Petco Park. Erik Johnson goes for his first win as a San Diego starter against Ubaldo Jimenez.

It was a better than average week for surfers at San Diego’s beaches.

Surfers say some sets were between three to five feet at Tourmaline Surfing Park Sunday.

Lifeguards say they rescued hundreds of people over the weekend, which is actually average for the summer months when more people are heading to the beach. 

259,180 people came to the beach over the weekend, and so far there have been 286 water rescues, lifeguards said. 

They say the surf was not as high as they predicted on Sunday, but agree beginners should wait until the high surf is gone tomorrow to get into the water. 

The National Weather Service (NWS) issued a Beach Hazard Statement for San Diego’s beaches Friday, saying waves ranging from six to up to 10 feet were likely, coupled with powerful rip currents.

Surfers say the water mellowed out a bit by the end of the weekend, but the NWS’ Beach Hazard Statement remains in effect through Sunday evening.

Those who visit local beaches are advised to heed all posted warning signs and swim close to lifeguard towers.

Inexperienced swimmers should stay out of the water.

If caught in a rip current, the best thing to do is swim parallel to the coast before attempting to head back onto the beach.

Five people were killed and another person was seriously injured after a vehicle collided into an Amtrak train in Colorado Sunday, NBC News reported. 

Two of the victims were adults and four were children, according to NBC station KUSA. All six were in the vehicle. The survivor, a young girl, was airlifted to a hospital. 

State patrol said they didn't suspect drugs or alcohol, although failure to yield right of way was being investigated as the factor in the collision, which took place just after noon ET near the New Mexico state line. 

The train was traveling from Chicago to Los Angeles. It had 286 passengers on board. 

A trip to dinner turned out to be the surprise of a lifetime for a New Jersey woman battling stage four lung cancer.

Carol Cesario has spent the last five months in and out of the hospital, her daughter, Rosie Skripkunis, said. Cesario, a lifelong Jon Bon Jovi fan, has always hoped she might one day get up close and personal with the singer.

“One of her biggest dreams was to meet him, ever since I was little,” Skripkunis said.

In an effort to cheer her mom up, Skripkunis made a makeshift sign on a piece of newspaper in May pleading for the singer to come visit her mom. With the help of friends, and lots of shares on Facebook, within an hour, Skripkunis was working with Bon Jovi’s team to make the dream a reality.

With June 25th picked as the date and Bon Jovi’s restaurant JBJ Soul Kitchen in Toms River as the destination, Skripkunis says she had no problem keeping the secret from her mom.

“I lied to her,” Skripkunis said, laughing. “I told her I wrote to his restaurant, that they said they couldn’t pass fan mail on, but that they had invited us for a free meal. It was a free meal, but it was a free meal with Bon Jovi there.”

At the restaurant, Cesario sat with her family talking as Bon Jovi snuck in the door behind her, then stood next to her without saying anything.

"Oh my God!" Cesario yelled out when she noticed exactly who was standing next to her. Bon Jovi gave an emotional Cesario a kiss on the cheek.

Cesario, Skripkunis, and their family spent the night with Bon Jovi, talking for hours and listening to some of the singer’s new music. Bon Jovi gave Cesario an autographed book and a guitar.

Skripkunis said since the dinner, her mom can’t stop thinking about it.

“She slept with the book he gave her,” Skripkunis said.

An online petition calling for a second referendum on Britain’s exit from the European Union has received more than 3 million signatures, NBC News reported. 

The petition calls for the government to implement a rule stating there should be another referendum if either camp won less than 60 percent of the vote with less than 75 percent voter turnout. The "Leave" campaign had racked up 17.4 million votes — compared to 16.1 million backing the status quo — giving "Leave" 51.9 percent of the ballot. 

The online petition site hosted by the House of Commons website crashed Friday because of unprecedented interest in the measure. The person behind the petition was, in fact, in favor of the so-called Brexit. 

Even though it has reached a record number of people to support it, the petition is not expected to result in a EU reversal.

The grassroots movement aimed at ousting Donald Trump at the Republican National Convention is planning for a convention floor fight, hiring staff, establishing a command center in Cleveland and rolling out ads in key states over the next week, NBC News reported

Organizers of the effort held their second weekly conference call Sunday night.

Former Bogota, New Jersey, Mayor Steve Lonegan, a Ted Cruz supporter and spokesman for a super PAC backing the effort, said he plans to hire East, West and Central regional field directors to begin building a "comprehensive list of every single delegate" to get to know their interests and issues.

The group is also planning to hire a full-time executive director, because the current staff is working on a volunteer basis, Lonegan said. An advance team is heading to Cleveland this week to build a command center outside the convention center.

A group of Cuban migrants who appeared to be armed with machetes reached the shore Florida's Hollywood Beach on Saturday afternoon, authorities said. 

According to Hollywood police, 11 Cuban migrants landed on Hollywood Beach near the 6000 block of North Ocean Drive around 6:20 p.m.

One of the migrants, Yoandy Alonoso Figueredo, said the trip lasted eight days and the group went without food and water for four. He said the sight of the coastline brought them hope.

Coast Guard officials tried to divert the migrants' boat before it reached Hollywood Beach. Officials said the migrants appeared to be armed with machetes and large knives and were threatening to harm themselves if their boat was stopped.

When they reached the shore, the migrants ran from the boat toward an approaching crowd of around 200 people, police said.

Border Patrol officials said some migrants were shot with Tasers while trying to escape.

"I saw this guy come out of the boat. He just ran and then the police officers were chasing him with a Taser," said a man who recorded the migrants' arrival on his cellphone.

Two were detained and one was taken to the hospital.

The Cuban migrant who was hospitalized hurt himself with a machete when police confronted him, officials said. He’s recovering from his injuries at Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood.

All the migrants were taken to a hospital and transferred to federal custody.

Since October, at least 4,643 Cubans have attempted to illegally migrate to the U.S. by boat compared to 4,473 in 2015.

Montgomery County, Maryland, believes they have an uncommon solution to a bird problem in their county parks.

Montgomery Parks plans to round up between 100 to 150 geese that have been creating safety issues in the facilities and humanely euthanize them. The animals will be processed and the meat will be donated to the Maryland Food Bank.

“These geese are year-round residents and create multiple issues for park users and staff. The excessive feces they leave, up to one pound daily, is not only unsightly but causes unsanitary conditions around bodies of water, docks, pathways, athletic fields and lawn areas,” Dave Petersen, Natural Resources Specialist for Montgomery Parks, said in a press release.

The park service has already tried different, non-lethal methods to get rid of the geese, including a ban on feeding them, habitat manipulation, fencing and repelling devices. Those methods have worked in some parks, but other parks, including the Martin Luther King Jr., Recreational Park and Rock Creek Regional Park, continue to have a problem with too many geese.

A federally permitted wildlife contractor will do the geese removal. WTOP Radio reported The Humane Society of the United States has voiced its concern over the plans and would prefer the park system exhaust every non-lethal type of management.

“For us, it’s the first time we’ve used this method, but it is by no means unprecedented in our area,” Peterson told WTOP.

The first event of the U.S. Olympic swimming trials produced a huge stunner, as Ryan Lochte failed to qualify for the team Sunday night in an event he won at the 2012 London Games. 

Lochte raced out to a big lead on the first two legs of the 400-meter individual medley but had nothing left for the breaststroke and freestyle. After the race, Lochte revealed that he pulled a groin muscle during the morning preliminaries and had no choice other than to try to build a commanding lead in the butterfly and backstroke and hope it would hold up. 

It didn't. Not even close. 

Watch the Dramatic Race Here

Chase Kalisz won in 4 minutes, 9.541 seconds, while Jay Litherland rallied to take the second spot for Rio in 4:11.021. 

Lochte, his legs totally gone, labored home in third at 4:12.021. 

"I had to go out faster than usual because I couldn't use my legs in the breaststroke," said the 31-year-old Lochte, who still has several other events to claim his spot on his fourth Olympic team — assuming he can overcome his injury. "I did everything I could in that race, it just wasn't enough. Just got to forget about that and move forward." 

While college teammates Kalisz and Litherland celebrated, Lochte hung on a lane rope, totally exhausted. He finally made it over to the side of the pool, struggling just to climb out of the water. He said he get a cortisone shot to help deal with the pain. 

"I'm going to keep working on it day in and day out, and hopefully it gets better," Lochte said. "I thought about it this morning, about scratching, but I mean, it's the Olympic trials. If I had a broken leg, I'd still go out there and swim." 

Michael Phelps, who won the 400 IM at both the 2004 and 2008 Olympics, finished fourth behind Lochte in London and dropped the grueling event from his program. With no races on the first day of the meet, Phelps watched from the stands. 

"I wasn't surprised with Jay," Phelps said. "He's like a shark in the water. He knows how to rise to the occasion." 

Phelps was especially happy for long-time training partner Kalisz, who like Litherland is heading to his first Olympics. 

"He's like a brother to me," Phelps said. 

Unaware of Lochte's injury, Phelps said he could tell that Lochte had nothing left when he got to the breast. And the two freestyle laps were downright painful to watch, as Lochte closed with a sluggish pace of 1:00.56 — more than 3 seconds slower than the 20-year-old Litherland, who swam with Kalisz at the University of Georgia. 

"I know what Ryan felt like in that race," Phelps said, remembering his loss at the 2012 Olympics. "I felt the same thing. It's tough to swim two 400 IMs in one day at that level. We saw that. 

"When you overdo it in that first 200, you're not going to have anything left."

The Democratic and Republican parties and their presumptive presidential nominees continue to be significantly unpopular with voters, in some cases more so than institutions like the NRA and Planned Parenthood, a new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll shows.

Donald Trump was viewed unfavorably by 60 percent of the electorate, while only 29 percent offered a positive rating of the GOP standard-bearer. Hillary Clinton received a 33 percent favorable rating, compared to a 55 percent negative rating.

By comparison, 48 percent of Americans viewed Planned Parenthood favorably, while 29 percent gave the women's health and abortion rights group poor ratings. Forty-two percent of voters saw the National Rifle Association in a positive light, while 36 percent disagreed.

President Barack Obama's favorability stood at 48 percent positive and 41 percent negative.

A Sig Alert has been issued on southbound Interstate 5 just north of Lomas Santa Fe, the California Highway Patrol confirmed.
