Gang Task Force makes arrests in the Crescent District

The county's gang task force stopped two men across the street from my house on East 9th Street tonight at approximately 7:50pm.

My front stoop has become the bleachers for neighbors viewing the activity...and the law enforcement officers are still out there as I write.

At one point seven different task force vehicles were called to the scene.

A tow truck has now arrived to pick up the suspects' car.
