Local gas prices reach record highs


Gasoline prices jumped to record levels this week as supply problems at refineries ended a couple of weeks of small drops in prices, according to the Automobile Club of Southern California.

The average price of a gallon of regular gasoline in San Bernardino and Riverside counties reached $3.625 this week, up 3.6 cents from the previous Friday and the highest ever.

In Los Angeles County, the average price was even higher, at $3.639, also 3.6 cents higher than a week ago.

Orange County prices rose 4.5 cents last week to a record of $3.593 per gallon.
