Permanent Injunctions Placed on 2 Street Gangs

Two of Los Angeles' most notorious street gangs, the Rollin' 60s Crips and the
Bounty Hunters,
have been placed under permanent court injunctions barring them from associating with fellow gang members in public, City Atty. Rocky Delgadillo announced Wednesday.
One of the injunctions also makes it a crime for members of the Bounty Hunters, who have lived in and around the Nickerson Gardens housing project in Watts for more than 30 years, to approach any occupied vehicles in the street, warn others of police presence or intimidate anyone.
Most of the same restrictions apply to the Hyde Park-based Rollin' 60s, as well as additional rules aimed at curbing drug sales. Those make it illegal for members of the Rollin' 60s to possess pagers, cellphones, two-way radios or scanners.
In addition, the Rollin' 60s are banned from entering the territory of rival gangs.
A violation of the injunctions, issued in Los Angeles Superior Court, would carry a possible sentence of up to a year in jail, according to Louis Lee, criminal chief of the city attorney's office.
