Drug Dealer Is Arrested In West Valley WEST VALLEY. A man purporting to be a gang member of the Crips gang, which is one of the largest and most violent gangs in Los Angeles, was arrested in West Valley City last Tuesday for distributing drugs, according to police. Police confiscated almost a pound of cocaine from 3854 W. Rockwood Way (4006 West). The street value of the drugs was about $40,000, police reports said. The arrested man was wearing the blue Crip colors. He wore a blue bandana and blue clothing, including underwear, said police. Officer Darrel Paskett found three people injecting cocaine inside a car near a reputed dealers apartment which led the police to believe the cocaine was bought at the apartment. rn iMI IWMfTJ WIN Continued from page 1 available for WIN to aid in the break-uof gang activity and other city protection concerns, said Nordfelt.

"The gangs are not organized or large, but were concerned about it." dont just happen Gangs assaults Violence, overnight. extortion for money or property, drugs and the organization of distributing drugs all set patterns or point to possible gang involvement. Gang concentration is mostly in high schools. "We have officers assigned to high schools and junior highs investigating crimes and complaints," said Nordfelt. No one in West Valley City has openly identified themselves with a gang name or affiliation, he said. But young adults will mimmick gang members they view on television or at the movies. These fictitious enactments cause people with a tendency to be influenced by what they view to act themselves in that direction, believes Nordfelt. WIN would iid in determining the names and states of origin of some of the gang members. Asians are committing crimes among their own people, said Nordfelt. Ethnic groups are assaulting other groups or members of their own group. "WIN would enable us to make that connection with gang activity," said Nordfelt. Sharing information with other agencies would keep the police department abreast of gang penetration. Parents can suspect gang influences among their children if they see them dressing in an extreme style, limiting friendships to a small group or other abnormal behivior.

What youre doing is smart because buying locally helps our economy...makes a difference. Dollars spent with this town's merchants stay here. They dont drift to Maine or Oregon.
