🚔🔒 Keeping Our Streets Safe 🚨👮‍♂️ A few days ago, deputies from the Los Santos Sheriff's Department's Central Patrol Division faced a harrowing and vicious attack while serving an arrest warrant. Namely, members of the Northside Longos 13 clashed with our deputies, threatening the very fabric of safety in our beloved city. Yesterday, the Operation Safe Streets Bureau, in conjunction with the Special Assignments Team and the North County Crime Impact Team, took decisive action in response. We launched a targeted crime suppression operation in the area where this dangerous criminal gang operates, and thanks to the dedication and perseverance of our teams, the operation was a resounding success. Multiple members of the Northside Longos 13 criminal gang were arrested, including those responsible for the cowardly attack that took place a few days prior. This should serve as a reminder: criminal activity will not be tolerated in our city, and those who endanger our residents and law enforcement officers will be held accountable and punished to the fullest extent of the law. #OperationSafeStreets #EndGangViolence #JusticePrevails #LSSD #CommunitySafety
