S.T.O.P. Presents LAPD Takeover at Northeast Division LAPD
Featuring films on the Echo Park Area Gang Injunction with Veronica Arellano
Tuesday, October 13th – 6:30PM
3353 San Fernando Rd., Los Angeles, CA 90065
There have also been dramatic increases in stops and frisks of youth on the street, raids of people’s homes, and the increased use of helicopters above the community since Echo Park got a gang injunction, despite the fact that violent crime is at its lowest level in more than 50 years. We think the arrest and all the police activity is suspicious given the amazing moves by community residents to challenge the injunction, to push against gentrification, and to take leadership of the Echo Park Neighborhood Council.
Come out to tomorrow night to TAKE OVER LAPD and hear directly from community members about the impact of gang injunctions on youth and communities.
