Neighborhood Crime Update:

Glassell Park

Many of you have seen the press conference we gave this past Friday at Northeast Station regarding the kidnap incident that occurred while a student was walking to the Sotomayor Learning Center. We are still actively searching for the suspect and are requesting the public’s help in identifying anyone that looks like the suspect (go to our facebook for composite viewing) and drives a similar vehicle (older red Toyota pickup with scrap metal or tools in the bed). If you have any information please contact Northeast Juvenile Detectives at (323) 344-5741 and reference DR number 12-11-00622.

Last week, had four BFMV adjacent to Eagle Rock Boulevard between the hours of 6 PM to 6 AM. This is high for this area and we are sending extra officers into the area.

Cypress Park

Overall, the crime looks good…a few property crimes…no trends or patterns.

Highland Park

Had a team of security guards who were patrolling the Figueroa Corridor become the victims of an AGG by three Avenues gang members. Northeast patrol responded and arrested the three-gang members (please go to facebook for more details and a dialog on the incident).

Also had some property crime issues in Highland Park with a cluster of three GTAs, one theft, and one burglary near the area where the AGG occurred (couple of blocks that surround Figueroa in the Avenue 50s/60s). Our gang unit is focusing on this area with extra support from patrol.

Eagle Rock

A few property crimes adjacent to Eagle Rock Boulevard near Yosemite. Otherwise, looks pretty clear.

Atwater Village

Just a few property crimes along Los Feliz Boulevard.

Echo Park

Very clear – looks great.

Silver Lake

Overall, looks good…just a few property crimes. We have focused on this area with our property crimes detail.

Elysian Valley

Very clear – one crime

Franklin Hills

Sporadic property crime with no trends or patterns – crimes are at different times.

Los Feliz

A few property crimes – no trends or patterns.

East Hollywood

Had a few property and violent crimes in area. Did have an AGG involving two prostitutes who got into a fight. We ran a trick task force there approximately one month ago and will set up another one. Have not received any major complaints of this type of activity – just want to get on top of it before it expands.

Mount Washington

Very clear – couple of BFMV.
