It’s not unusual for me to be awoken in the middle of the night by the sound of a whirring police helicopter right above me and a light shining in my window and cops yelling through a loudspeaker, “Luke Ford! Come out with your hands up!”
I try to sleep somewhere different every night but I can’t avoid this police harassment.
I suppose I should be grateful that our city’s finest are working hard to keep us safe in Pico-Robertson.
I was reading in Community Links for Los Angeles Jewry about the LA Guardian Angels meeting with Curtis Sliwa in New York to learn about starting patrols in Pico-Robertson, which has been hit by a rash of muggings and burglaries over the past few weeks.
