California gang crackdown continues
The crackdown on gangs in California continues this week. This dispatch from Francisco Vara-Orta reports that more than 120 officers raided the homes of suspected members of a Rialto street gang yesterday as San Bernardino County officials prepared to file the first gang injunction in county history against the targeted group.
Earlier this week, reports from Orange County and Los Angeles provided further details on the current battle being fought by California lawmakers and police against violent gangs.
