El Burro Heights, January 9th, 2022 Originally started as a small group of vandals to shortly after engaging in petty mischief and more serious crimes, and characteristically dangerous behavior. A group of teens found themselves caught in the struggles of their environment. Many of them grew up in the same neighborhood, facing challenges like poverty and violence from surrounding gangs. They shared a bond that ran deep in their blood, stemming from their similar backgrounds and the harsh reality of survival in a reckless place like El Burro Heights. Joseph Arnal was an older figure involved with the Camberio Connection as an enforcer for younger soldiers. He was the brains behind much of what happened on the streets, leaving business decisions to the older individuals who led the Camberio Connection. After their downfall and the incarceration of several key figures, it was just Joseph Arnal and the small circle they called Valley Vipers. There were setbacks when Joseph was jailed for five years; he served two and still had one year left on parole before he could return to the streets. Joseph did everything he could to prevent the Vipers from becoming defunct. From inside, he worked hard to keep it running by sending messages, setting up meets etc, while also the young members outside resorted to robberies, shoplifting, and all kinds of crimes to survive the wild streets, however often failing through their rodeos and ending up in juvenile detention centers. JOSEPH ARNAL 2000-2021 After Arnal was released, Vipers were in an ongoing war with the King Kobras up in the Hills. That was when Joseph Arnal was killed in front of one of the stores. The story behind his death was that the King Kobras took his life during their conflict once he got out, he was caught in the crossfire with two bullets to the chest. This tragedy marked a difficult time for the Vipers. Joseph Arnal may be gone, but his legacy fuels their fire. Viboras 730 aka Valley Vipers 730 grew larger, showing their influence over younger individuals at school and in the streets, those who wanted to become products of their environment and looked to appear tough. It was a mix of violence and influence that allowed them to earn some respect in their neighbourhood despite their young age. Social media played a major role; they craved clout and used every platform to showcase who they were. Viboras 730 started recruiting kids from around the neighborhood, flaunting the cash they were making. It was all about excitement and camaraderie and also the appeal of belonging to something. Soon enough they began to form "gang" hand-signs etc...Shortly enough it was a unification of multiple members or foundings one rather than a formation of one, but unlike the big gangs that ran the streets of Los Santos the Viboras were small time, hanging by a thread. It was barely holding it together and inside the group loyalty wasn't guaranteed. Most of the members were there for survival. They often argued over money and blamed one another when things went wrong, fights would break out leaving bruises and busted lips... However at the end they still held it togehter as they had nowhere else to go.

A mural within the Charleston Projects, Los Santos (circa. 2022) THE BIRTH OF THE CHARLESTON PROJECTS (1954 - 1970's) The Charleston Housing Projects are one of the longest standing public housing units in San Andreas. It is a 1,100 - unit public housing complex located in southern Los Santos, off of Carson Avenue and Davis Avenue. Occupancy first opened up in the March of 1954 and was named after William Charleston, former CEO of a Los Santos life insurance company. By the mid - 1970's the entire apartment complex consisted of over 95% African American people, and carried a minority population of Whites, Asians, and Hispanics. Its curved community serves as a community hub filled with schools, centers, and restaurants. Despite facing challenges such as poverty and crime, the Charleston Projects fostered a strong sense of community among its residents, who often came together for local events and initiatives. Efforts were even made to revitalize the area through community engagement and investment in social programs, aiming to improve living conditions and provide opportunities for residents. Within the coming years, a new wave of residents would flood the area, bringing on an entirely new generation of occupants. With the influx of crime and the popular clique or club era going on in Los Santos during the early seventies, a new foundation of youth would come about. This crew was known as the Green Jacket Gang or simply the Green Jackets. There were reportedly two crews of the Green Jackets, one known as the Jordan Green Jackets and one known as the Charleston Green Jackets โ both being located in two different projects of Los Santos. There was also another crew at the time known as the Packs, who were located in the Imperial Courts Housing Projects, also located in Rancho. The Packs went on to become the 456 Crips after the newly established "Crips" or "Baby Cribs" identity formed. Along with the 456 Crips, more and more crips would come to form in Rancho. Gangs like the Hickory Street Crips were also prominent at this time. And at the time, this became a problem because the entire area of Rancho was anti-crip, due to the early forerunners of the Green Jackets disliking the crips because of negative history. In due time, the formation of the Bounty Hunters would come about in the Charleston Housing Projects with the help of Rhea Boyce and the Green Jackets. And like all generational beefs start, school became a breeding ground for gang violence between the crips and both the Bounty Hunters and Green Jackets. A BOUNTY HUNTER ORIGIN STORY (1970's - 2024) After a series of events, both cliques would merge into one, taking on the Bounty Hunters name. As the Bounty Hunters, both groups began playing for keeps โ making sure their neighborhood was safe from crips like the 456 Crips or PJ Crips, Hickory Street Crips, and other Crips located inside of Davis like the Carver Park Crips. And within a matter of time, fights and shootings broke out between both sides with no reconciliation. Years pass, and now there are a number of differences in Rancho as of now. The once, Jordan Green Jackets, would now have a crip identity and would go by the Jordan Crips. This would cause problems between the Bounty Hunters and them. Both feuded for an extended period of time until bodies started dropping on both sides. The Jordan Crips and a neighboring Mexican gang known at the Rancho Varrio Grapes would then unify after a mutual shooting on their side, done by the Bounty Hunters. These groups would soon form into the Grape Street Crips, the Bounty Hunter's number one enemies. This and a few other events alone pushed for the merging of the Bounty Hunters into the new Blood identity that was on the rise at the time. In the modern day, the Bounty Hunter Bloods consists of young and ruthless generation of gangsters. With them being a project gang, they still have a a lot of influence from the older generation, but at the same time, the young generation controls everything. They are the ones who are doing the most for the gang. Crimes like robbery, burglary, assault, distribution, and even murder all happen at the hands of the Bounty Hunter Bloods โ just like every other modern gang around the world. Still thriving in the Charleston Housing Projects, the Bounty Hunter Bloods have cliques stemming from 108th street down to 115th street, including both residential neighborhoods and the projects. In current time, the Bounty Hunter Bloods or BHB are engaged in wars with a number of gangs around Los Santos. They beef with the Grape Street Rancho Crips, Ten Line Gangster Crips, Holmes Street Rancho Crips, Hat Gang Rancho Crips, 117th Street Rancho Crips, Bacc Street Rancho Crips, Front Street Rancho Crips, Fudge Town Mafia Crips, Bad Ass Gangster Crips, 99 Rancho Mafia Crips, East Coast Crips, Carson Crips, Westside Pirus, Campanella Park Pirus, and the Mad Swan Bloods. They are allied with gangs like the Circle City Pirus and Hacienda Village Rancho Bloods. 41 ARRESTED IN POLICE SWEEP THROUGH THE CHARLESTON PROJECTS (2004) Just before dawn, on the 21st of January, 2004, residents of the Charleston Housing Projects were woken up to a rather unpleasant alarm. Over four-hundred armed police officers arrived to the area to perform one of the largest raids the projects has ever seen. 41 alleged members of the Bounty Hunter Bloods were arrested that morning for charges related to the distribution of crack cocaine and violent crimes. This specific raid was aimed towards the Bounty Hunter Bloods because they were making so much noise at the time. James M. Sheehan, and assistant director of the FIB stated, "Very simply, it is about gangs. It is about guns. It is about violence. It is about drug dealing." The city's very own police chief at the time labeled members of the Bounty Hunters "violent sociopaths" and mention that they were looking for the city's "shot callers." This would not be the Bounty Hunters first rodeo though, just three years earlier over 30 other Bounty Hunters were arrested in a similar raid. As a result of the event, 13 men were accused and arrested on indictment charges of conspiring to sell and distribute crack cocaine after selling to a federal informant over the course of six months. 26 more adults and two juveniles were arrested on suspicion charges or warrants as well. The Los Santos Police Department mentioned that the gang used their neighborhood street corners and street corners to distribute drugs. It was also included that the Bounty Hunters allegedly forced tenants out through threats and violent acts whenever they didn't agree to their terms. Snitching or cooperating with local officers has always been a big problem in the Charleston Projects. Even before the raid, it is believed that a member of the Bounty Hunters Bloods shot & killed two Davis police officers. Three years after that, it is also believed that the Bounty Hunter Bloods were responsible for the murder of an 86-year old resident of the Charleston Projects over her cooperation with the police. The Los Santos Police Department used these heinous acts like these as fuel to conduct this raid. โThis is one of the most violent gangs in the history of the city,โ Assistant Police Chief George Gascon stated. The names attached to these arrests were: Billy Barnes, Jerry Jones, Antonio Hamilton, Clifford Skannal, Eric Thornton, Johnnie Thomas, Melvin Lewis, Pervis Henderson, Travon Powell, Raymond Benford, Rodney Harris, Jamele Hill and Patrick Cameron Bell. Two more men were still being sought at the time. All of these men were responsible for at least 18 to 71 grams of crack cocaine each. This outraged many older members of the gangs, because the Bounty Hunters have a history of being a more family-oriented gang rather than a ruthless band of cutthroats. A senior members of the gang stated that, "Weโre more upset with the little homies throughout the city who are doing unnecessary killings and shooting at the police from a distance because they make it harder for me and others who have turned their lives around." Locals around the Charleston Projects were also in shock due to the nature of this specific raid, yet alone, they know it would not bring an end to the bloods. One person even stated that, "Anytime you remove one guy, another guy steps up to the plate."

East Vinewood, North East Los Santos East Vinewood is a neighborhood located in the north eastern section of Los Santos (NELS), San Andreas, east of Downtown Vinewood. The neighborhood contains the sub-district of Mirror Park, the park of the same name, the new Diamond Casino and the Vinewood Racetrack. From its inception in the early 1930s, when the neighborhood was built in order to house the mostly immigrant population needed to work the city's growing industrial sector, East Vinewood has been a mostly working class neighborhood. This changed in the late nineties when a joint renovation and betterment effort, known also as "gentrification" , forced the area to undergo massive changes, with Mirror Park being the most affected. Due to the drastic changes in the area, costs of living sky rocketed. This lead many working families, who were already scraping by, to move. Thus, a majority Hispanic and working class neighborhood received a massive influx of White and Asian middle and upper middle class residents in the span of less than thirty years. Gang activity has always plagued East Vinewood, but gentrification and neighborhood watch programs dealt heavy blows to the various gangs that reside in the neighborhood. That said, after the 2008 crash gang activity spiked again, approaching levels of crime comparable to other parts of the city. Broker Heights and its eponymous park have long been plagued by crime, while the passage to the Los Santos River has long been used as a makeshift camp for the homeless, against the city's efforts to curb it. Although also gentrified, this area has been significantly less affected and remains mostly working class. The housing complex off Mirror Park boulevard was notorious for a prostitution ring in the early 2000's. With poverty rising and unemployment increasing, East Vinewood saw a massive spike in crime and gangs alike. As 2023 unfolds, the city has witnessed a surge in violent crimes and property damage, fostering a heightened sense of insecurity among the residents in the initial months of the year alone. There is a growing concern that both minor and violent crimes might propel 2023 to unprecedented levels. The people of East Vinewood consistently point fingers at various entities, including the Los Santos Police Department, Los Santos Sheriffs Department, and numerous tag crews roaming East Vinewood. The ongoing complaints from law-abiding citizens reveal a two-sided narrative. On one hand, some attribute the issue to law enforcement's perceived overly aggressive approach, arguing that it encourages disruptive and non-compliant behavior among the youth. Citizens recount instances of bullying and discrimination against the youth due to their lifestyle, accusing law enforcement of undue harshness towards individuals who may not deserve it. On the other hand, there are those who fault law enforcement for not being assertive enough, urging them to instill a lawful sense of fear in the community and maintain a constant and visible presenceโ an aspect that has notably increased in recent times. FME or Far More Evil // Fuck My Enemies // Forgive My Evilways // Fuckin Mobbin Everywhere Is a tagger crew full of young juveniles based in Broker Heights, East Vinewood. The crew is made up of friends from ages 12-16 and most are small time criminals, dabbling in petty theft, vandalism and drug dealing. Even though the group isn't as big or organized as other gangs in the area, FME can be violent if they need to be, causing fights with other taggers in the area and in different area codes at times. Far More Evil started off as a bunch of friends that underwent mindless vandalism and graffiti before being dragged into a small time beef with another local tagger crew that went by Evil Family (EF). This was mainly due to the similar names with both crews and both sides thought the other was posers and copycats. This led to FME becoming "Tag Bangers" in the eyes of the residents of East Vinewood. Regardless of the feud, no one was severely injured or killed during the rivalry. Evil Family, no longer being around and long since disbanded has let FME operate in peace. As the early months of 2024 creep in, concerned East Vinewood residents have been confirming the fears and suspicions of LSPD and LSSD gang detectives: rising gang activity. Although not a stranger to youth crime and delinquency, East Vinewood hasn't seen true gang activity in a while. That seems to change as the area's local tag crew has allegedly turned into a full fledged street gang under the name of Parkside Varrio 13. The former tag bangers show respect to their roots through the name of their clique, Evil Ones. Multiple theories have been formed in regards to the crew's recent development. Some attribute the change to the recent short-lived yet brutal war with the Northside Criminals gang, in which the tag bangers took the brunt of the losses. Another theory revolves around internal friction and conflict within the structure of the Mexican Mafia. Some sources claim that multiple crews within the organization have had their eyes on the local tag crew and had been exerting their influence in hopes of securing profits from the area's drug trade, as well as securing the loyalty of the neighborhood. As multiple figures had attempted to lay their claim, conflict began brewing. Rumor is, one of the aforementioned figures pressured the teenagers into joining the Sureno umbrella, seizing the opportunity before it could be stolen. Regardless of how it came to be, the gang now claims Broker Park and East Vinewood. Violent crime, burglaries and muggings have all increased following this move, as the fledgling gang strives to assert their control. FME VS UNA The deeply rooted animosity between Far More Evil (FME) and Under No Authority (UNA) had its origins when members of the UNA tagging crew, emanating from Hawick and West Vinewood, boldly defaced the walls of the Mirror Park gas station with their graffiti, infringing upon what FME vehemently considered their sacred and exclusive turf. In response to this brazen act, members of FME, under the misguided assumption that UNA was an emerging crew based out of East Los, retaliated by crossing out hit ups and disrespecting the crew's members. This exchange marked the start in a protracted conflict. Several days later, UNA members unexpectedly encountered two unsuspecting FME affiliates and confronted them, resulting in a tense confrontation that quickly escalated into a public brawl. The chaotic scene was eventually subdued by law enforcement, with one UNA affiliate requiring medical attention on-site, further escalating the tensions between the rival factions. This initial clash ignited an enduring and escalating wall-banging conflict between the two crews, with name calling and net banging on both sides, reaching its zenith when a FME member fell victim to an ambush, being jumped and robbed of his sneakers. The ongoing hostilities led to both groups riding out into opposing corners of Vinewood during the late hours of the night and early morning, in hopes of crossing out rival tags and getting into fist fights. However, as the passage of time unfolded, the frequency of these clashes gradually waned, overshadowed by more intense and brutal feuds erupting in proximity to each crew's home turf. Surprisingly, throughout the entire conflict, there were no reported fatalities or severe injuries. The feud purportedly found its resolution when key members from both factions were brought in to meet with influential figures within the Mexican Mafia, through their mutual connection, Armenian Power. As a result of this diplomatic intervention, the two once-hostile crews were both seamlessly integrated into the broader criminal fold, evolving into fully recognized varrios. This transformative process compelled them to set aside their longstanding differences and shift their focus towards consolidating control over their respective territories. Consequently, UNA turned into Suicidal Mexicans 13, while FME embraced the identity of Parkside Varrio 13, symbolizing the conclusive chapter in their bitter and prolonged feud. FME VS N/S CRIMINALS GANG Arguably, the most brutal and devastating conflict that Far More Evil (FME) found themselves entangled in was a feud that unfolded in the commercial district of Mirror Park. The hostilities ignited when FME affiliates, oblivious to the fact that the territory belonged to the Northside Criminals (NSC) gang, plastered the walls in their crew's graffiti. The inevitable confrontation ensued when members of the Northside Crims gang confronted the FME affiliates on their way to the Mirror Park gas station, leaving the latter mercilessly battered and bruised, with some requiring stitches for their injuries. In the aftermath, a member of the Northside Criminals seized the opportunity while FME affiliates were tending to their wounds. Spotting an FME affiliate alone, the NSC member attempted to capitalize on the situation. However, the lone FME member was swiftly assisted by two others, resulting in a violent altercation that left the NSC affiliate beaten and stomped on until the intervention of the police. Subsequently, Far More Evil came under scrutiny from both the Sheriffs Department and the Police Department, who examined the injuries inflicted by three FME affiliates. These two incidents fueled a deep-seated and enduring animosity between the two factions, akin to the ongoing conflict with Under No Authority (UNA). Reciprocal acts of violence and severe beatings became a routine occurrence, perpetuating a cycle of hostility. The tensions escalated a week before Christmas Day when Far More Evil affiliates, on a tagging mission, found themselves under gunfire. This incident served as the catalyst for a brief yet bloody war, where both sides resorted to the use of firearms. While the Northside Criminals were seasoned and accustomed to gunplay, Far More Evil struggled, resulting in severe injuries and at least one fatality. The losses prompted FME to retreat, regroup, and lick their wounds to recover. As of now, , the two rival groups actively avoid each other, recognizing that the homicides attracted increased scrutiny and attention from the authorities. The taggers, who bore the brunt of the damage, now find themselves mourning their losses and working to get back on their feet in the aftermath of this intense and tragic chapter of their history.

The Eastside of South Central is home to the humble, working class of Los Santos. Many of LS's history is found in this area due to many of its buildings originating in the early to mid twentieth century. Due to this area being the most Northern part of Eastern South Central, there are smaller numbered streets, which denotes the name "Low Bottoms." Other than the community aspect of the Low Bottoms, this area is also known to the most violent and treacherous gangs in South LS. Blood gangs like the Rolling 20's Outlaw Bloods, Rolling 30's Bloodstone Pirus, All For Crime Bloods, Rolling 40's Bloodstone Pirus, Bloodstone Villains, and the Pueblo Bishop Bloods dominate the area as compared to the Crip gangs in the area. There is also a strong presence of Hispanic gangs in the area, such as the Primera Flats 13, 38th Street, Clanton 14th Street, Ghetto Boyz 13, Mid City Stoners 13, East Side 13, and Locos Park 13. This racial divide in the area has formed numerous bloody rivalries between the African Americans and Latinos in the area. Due to this, many African American gangs in the area push or claim "MK" or Mexican Killa, and vice versa for the Hispanic gangs in the area. The Eastside Rolling 20's Outlaw Bloods or Eastside Outlaws (OLS) are a majority African-American gang located on the Eastside of southern LS. Their territory stretches from 20th Street to Jefferson Boulevard, located in between Main Street and Central Avenue. Due to popular belief, the Eastside Outlaws and the Neighborhood Rolling 20's Bloods are often grouped together, despite them being two completely different gangs. The truth isโ the two gangs are completely unrelated and are on two different areas/side of town, with the Eastside Outlaws being located in the Low Bottoms and the Neighborhood Rolling 20's Bloods being located in the West Adams area. The Rolling 20's Outlaw Bloods are strong allies with Rolling 30's Bloodstone Pirus, Neighborhood Rolling 20's Bloods, and the Bloodstone Villains. For the most part, they are neutral with many other blood gangs in the area, due to the politics with their allies. Their rivals in the area include the 4 Pacc Crips, Avalon Gangster Crips, Broadway Gangster Crips, and their most bitter Mexican rivals the East Side Trece or East Side 13. In areas outside of the Low Bottoms, the Eastside Outlaws are also rivals to all Neighborhood Crip (2x) gangs and most Gangster Crip (3x) gangs. In modern times, the new generation of the Rolling 20's Outlaw Bloods have found different ways to represent their neighborhood as well profit off of their neighborhood. They can be spotted sporting apparel from Major League Baseball teams like the Baltimore Orioles, Texas Rangers, and Boston Red Sox. Outside of tangible representation, the Outlaws are also responsible for a decent amount of weapon and drug operations in the area. Much of the distribution of drugs like marijuana, cocaine, codeine cough syrup, heroin, and opioids are at the hands of the Eastside Outlaws. In addition, the conflicts in the area have remained the same over the course of years. There is still strong racial tension in the area, racially dividing the black and brown communities in the Low Bottoms even more. One major event that led to the increasing racial wars in the area was a tragedy known as the 49th Street Massacre. Allegedly the massacre was a response to the murder of a member of the Rolling 30's Bloodstone Pirus, who's name is going to be disclosed. In retaliation, a member of the Bloodstones took it upon himself to go to 49th street in the Low Bottoms and open fire on a group of Hispanic people, which included a child. Allegedly, he stood over the child also. It was also found that later that night, he also killed another Hispanic man in the area to top of the murders he had committed earlier that day. This event would spark an ongoing war between the East Side 13's and the Rolling 30's Bloodstone Pirus, which dragged the Eastside Outlaws into it due to them having a strong alliance with the Bloodstones. There have been numerous bodies on both sides, resulting in a never-ending cycle of hatred between the two sides. The Bloods gang was formed initially to go against the influence of the Crips in Los Santos. The rivalry dates back to the 1960s when Dedrick Reynolds and several other Crips confronted Pierre and Khalil Homan, students at P.R.I.D.E. High School in Los Santos, San Andreas. In response to the attack, Rob, who lived in Chamberlain, established the Piru street-gang, the first "Bloods" street gang. Homan established the West Piru street-gang. The Bloods street-gang was initially formed to provide members protection from the Crips. Many of the non-Crip street-gangs used to call one another "blood". On June 17, 1972, shortly after a concert 20 youths belonging to the Crips attacked and robbed Eric Garnett Jr. outside of Vinewood Palladium. Garnett was beaten to death after he refused to give up his Air Jordans. The sensational media coverage of the crime and the continued assaults by the Crips increased their notoriety. Several non-Crips gangs formed during this period were no match for the Crips and they became concerned with the escalating Crip attacks. The Pirus, Black P. Stones, Lynne Park Boys and other gangs not aligned with the Crips often clashed with the Crips. On August 12, 1972, three months after Garnett's murder, LaTrae "Gator" Garret was murdered by a Westside Crip. This marked the first Crips murder against another gang member and motivated non-Crip street-gangs to align with each other. The Brims struck back on September 9, 1972, by murdering John Wright, an original Westside Crip. By late 1972, the Pirus held a meeting in their neighborhood to discuss growing Crips pressure and intimidation. Several gangs that felt victimized by the Crips joined the Piru Street Boys to create a new federation of non-Crips neighborhoods. This alliance would transform into the "Bloods". The Pirus are therefore considered to be the original founders of the Bloods.

EASTSIDE BLOODSTONE VILLAINS The East Side Blood Stone Villains [BSV, ES BSV, Villains] are a predominately African-American street gang located on the Eastside of Los Santos in an area commonly referred to as the Low Bottoms, or Evil Side 50s. The East Side (E/S) Blood Stone Villains are a long-standing African American street gang located in the southeast of Los Santos, San Andreas. Their neighborhood spreads from 50th Street to East Forum Drive.; a thoroughfare located in the heart of their territory. The Blood Stone Villains are a combination of three separate cliques: The 52nd Street Bloodstone Villains, 56th Street Bloodstone Villains, and the 57th Street Bloodstone Villains. The gang is filled with all different types of races such as Latino, Asian, and African-American with some members of the gang even being white. The gang has been around since the late 1970โs they were one low and were on the verge of going defunct I guess you could say, but recently in the last couple of years, the membership of the gang has continued to grow with the younger generation beginning to gangbang and push the Blood Stone Villians gang. Members of the gang can be seen on Social Media from time to time as the younger generation is also on Instagram dissing and taunting their enemies. Acting Attorney Kemonte Grant announced on Tuesday the indictment of 12 members and associates of the โBlood Stone Villainsโ or โBSV,โ a violent gang linked to crimes and shootings that have taken place in the Southside of Los Santos. These crimes and charges were linked to several violent acts and crimes including a November 2019 murder of a 43-year-old man, the attempted murder of a Los Santos Police Officer in January 2020, and a June 2021 shooting that wounded several innocent people on Roy Low Street, including a 12-year-old boy who was critically injured. โWe can and must end gun violence in Los Santos, and this latest indictment reflects our commitment to doing so,โ said Attorney Kemote Grant. โWe are using every tool and resource at our disposal to keep the residents of Los Santos safe. โIn late 2019, acting on intelligence from the Los Santos Police Department about alleged gun violence by โBSVโ members, the Division of Criminal Justice Gangs & Organized Crime Bureau began investigating the gang and its alleged leader, Joshua White, a/k/a Jojoโ or โJo" The investigation led to numerous arrests last summer as violence linked to BSV escalated during the COVID pandemic. Investigatorsโwho had already arrested Jojo and five associates in connection with the December 2019 murder, the attempted murder of the police officer, and another prior shootingโarrested 10 more alleged BSV members beginning two days after that shooting. It is alleged that the Blood Stone Villains, under the leadership of Jojo, controlled heroin and cocaine distribution in the area around the Del Perro area in Los Santos. Jojo allegedly gave orders to lower-ranking BSV members to carry out acts of violence against rivals on behalf of the gang. In addition to being charged with other defendants in first-degree counts of murder, attempted murder, and conspiracy to commit murder, Jojo is charged with first-degree leader of a narcotics-trafficking network and first-degree promoting organized street crime. โNIGGA I'M FROM EVILSIDE" The Evil Side 50s was founded after one of the members passed away due to a shootout with the Los Santos Police Department. The Evil Side 50s is a predominately African-American street gang subset of the known gang. This subset is a small clique made up of younger individuals in the gang. They stay on the same turf as the gang does. Although they operate differently, they share the same enemies and allies that the current gang does. They are young affiliates who have no OG to look up to. They are hotheaded and ruthless. The Evil Side 50s are trying to find their guidance and will do anything it takes to make money. Members of Evil Side are mostly young teenagers who are extremely reckless and will go to any length to impress others and demonstrate the gang lifestyle. They took the name Evil Side after a member from the set passed away, they wanted to continue the loved memberโs legacy and continue to keep his name and legacy around so thatโs how the subset came around. They are known to operate on 50th Street in the Eastside. Members will do whatever it takes to make money around the hood and also will do whatever they have to do to prove themselves around the hood. They are big on respect and will do whatever they have to do to show the OGโs around the hood they are meant for this and that they want to be a part of this dangerous lifestyle of gangbanging. Current members of the Evil Side 50s have participated in crimes such as robberies, shootings, and even credit card fraud scams due to their attempt to come up and make money by any means they possibly can. They are usually always together or around in a group you will rarely find or see members from the Evil side by themselves as they tend to move in groups I guess you could say. The subset of the gang includes members from the ages of 14-19 as most of the members in the subset are fairly young and still new to this gangbanging life due to them recently getting their officials and put-on to the Blood Stone Villains. V.S.O.P The Bloodstone Villains have an Alliance with the surrounding East Side Blood gangs which form V.S.O.P. The gangs are listed as follows Bloodstone Villains, Mad Swan Bloods, Rollin 20 Outlaw Bloods, and the Bloodstone Pirus. Other blood gangs the Bloodstone Villains are friendly towards are the Denver Lanes and the Bounty Hunter Bloods. Under this Alliance they are at war with every Crip gang on the Eastside with includes the Avalon Gangster Crips, Four Pacc Gangster Crips, East Coast Crips, and the Neighborhood Crips (NHC), and some Gangster Crips. Back in the late 70โs The Bloodstone Villains used to be close allies with the Pueblo Bishop Bloods. The alliance would come to an end when a Pueblo Bishop Blood killed a high-ranking Blood Stone Villain member execution style, with that happening sparked an ongoing war between the two blood gangs.

๐ฐ/๐พ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ฒ๐๐๐ ๐๐ฒ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ธ๐ป๐ The East Side Waydah Gang, also known as the 118 ES Waydah Crips, is a hybrid gang of African American and Samoan Crips in the East side of Los Santos. The gang was formed in the 1970s by two drug lords, Big T, and Lil' S, who dominated the local market with their high-quality and low-priced cocaine. The gang is part of the Eastside Crip alliance, a loose coalition of Crip gangs in the eastern part of the city, but does not associate with other Crip subsets like Neighborhood Crips or Gangster Crips, who have different codes and histories. The gang's territory ranges from 118th Street to 126th Street on Carson Avenue, near the notorious Carver Park, a public park that has been taken over by the gang and turned into a drug den and a shooting range. The gang members hang out and commit various crimes in and around the park, such as robbery, assault, murder, and vandalism. In the 1980s, the Waydah Gang gained fame for their skillful distribution of crack cocaine in South Los Santos, which was a lucrative and addictive drug that swept the city. The gang used their connections with Samoan suppliers and their network of street dealers to flood the market with cheap and potent crack. This attracted the attention and hostility of many Blood gangs, who saw the Waydah Gang as a threat to their own drug business and their territorial claims. The gang had to arm themselves with guns and knives to defend their turf and their business from rival gangs. The gang also developed a fierce rivalry with many of the blood factions in the area, another gang in the city of Cypress the Fruit Town Pirus an African American Blood Gang that holds a just as bad reputation as the Carver Park Crips, who were their main competitors in the drug trade. In the late 1990s, the gang suffered heavy losses due to police crackdowns, internal conflicts, and gang wars. The gang entered a third generation of members, who were mostly teenagers and young adults who grew up in poverty and violence. They were more violent and reckless than their predecessors, who had some sense of discipline and loyalty. They were known for their frequent burglaries in nearby neighborhoods, where they would break into houses and steal valuables and cars. They were also known for their distinctive Tarheel Blue and Navy Blue colors, which they wore on their clothes, bandanas, hats, shoes, and tattoos. Their colors represented their affiliation with the Eastside Crips and their loyalty to their gang. Their leadership was reduced to a few young men who had a reputation for being ruthless and fearless. They were called the OGs (Original Gangsters) or the Big Homies, and they had respect and authority over the rest of the gang members. However, the gang's power declined further when they were hit by a gang injunction from the LSPD (Los Santos Police Department), which was a legal measure that restricted the gang's activities and movements in their territory. The LSPD also launched a series of raids and arrests against the gang, using informants, surveillance, and evidence to build cases against them. Many of them were sentenced to long prison terms for various crimes, such as drug trafficking, weapons possession, racketeering, and murder. Some of them were killed by rival gangs or by police officers during shootouts. Some of them left the gang or moved away from Los Santos. Some of them stayed loyal to the gang and continued to operate from behind bars or on the streets. ๐๐ต๐ต๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ผ & ๐ก๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ช๐ต๐ผ The Eastside Waydah Gang, also known as the 118 E/S Crips, is a notorious street gang in Los Santos. They are affiliated with the Crip Alliance, a large network of gangs that share a common enemy: the Bloods. The Waydah Gang has strong ties with several Hoover Criminal and Mafia Crip sets, as they share many relatives and business interests. They also have a long-standing rivalry with most Piru and Blood sets, especially those on the west side of the city. The Waydah Gang is not particularly hostile to the Latinx gangs in Los Santos, but they may encounter some conflicts over territory or drugs. The Waydah Gang was founded in the late 1970s by a group of young men who lived on Waydah Avenue, near 118th Street. They adopted the blue color and the six-pointed star of the Crips, and started to expand their influence in the east side of Los Santos. They became known for their violent and ruthless behavior, as well as their loyalty to their allies. The Waydah Gang has been involved in many wars and feuds with other gangs, such as the Westside Piru, the Poccet Hood Cypess Crips, and the Campanella Park Piru. The Waydah Gang is still active today, with hundreds of members and associates. Present Day Parc Boys Today the E/S Waydah Gang is a group of young people who are trying to make a name for themselves in the streets of South East Los Santos. They are led by 20 and 21 year olds who do not care about the old rules or the OG's who betrayed them. They are always looking for trouble and opportunities to make money, whether it is by breaking into houses, robbing people, or fighting with other gangs. They are based in Cypress Flats, but they have also expanded their territory to Carson, where they have gained some reputation. They are skilled in burglary, robbery, and combat, and they are not afraid to use violence to get what they want. They are seen as potential threats by other gangs in the city who want to stop their rise.

Street Racing Epidemic In El Burro Heights February 25, 2023 19:12 Written by Robert Gray El Burro Heights, Los Santos - Residents of El Burro Heights have raised concerns over the recent influx in illegal street racing taking place in their city. Large crowds of people are gathering late at night to participate in drag racing on the empty and wide-lane industrial roads. According to reports, the illegal street racing is happening on a regular basis, and the crowds are getting bigger every week. Local residents have reported loud engines, screeching tires, and honking horns, disturbing the peace and causing safety concerns. The Los Santos Sheriff's Department has acknowledged the issue and has stepped up patrols in the area. They have also called on the community to report any suspicious activity they may witness. "We take illegal street racing seriously, and we want to make sure that our community is safe," said a Los Santos Sherriff's Deputy. "We have increased patrols in the area and have been working closely with neighboring law enforcement agencies to address the issue." In addition to the noise and safety concerns, the illegal street racing is also damaging the roads and causing environmental issues. Burnouts and other reckless driving behaviors are causing damage to the asphalt, which is costly to repair. The Los Santos City Council has also expressed their concern over the issue and is considering implementing new measures to combat the problem. Possible solutions include installing speed bumps or rumble strips on the affected roads, increasing fines for illegal street racing, and using technology such as license plate readers to identify and track offenders. "We are committed to finding a solution to this issue," said El Burro Heights Community Representative Mike Gramby. "We will continue to work with the Sherriff's department and the community to ensure that our city remains a safe and peaceful place to live." Residents of El Burro Heights, Cypress Flats and Murrieta Heights are urged to report any suspicious activity related to illegal street racing to the police department. Anyone caught participating in illegal street racing could face fines, vehicle impoundment, and even criminal charges.

This thread will follow the life & times of Cymphonique Chambers, a local within the Avalon Gangster Crip territory. Cymphonique is the daughter to Stanley "Poppa Slob#1" Chambers from the 88 Avalon Gangster Crip gang on Roy Lowenstein Boulevard. Her mother (Priscilla Murphy) is a resident in the 40 Avalon Gangster Crip and daughter of a 2nd generation 40 AGC member, Amanda "Mandy Blue" Murphy. Cymphonique's father was a reputable from 88 AGC, he was killed by the 84 Main Street Crips when Cymphonique was just 15 years old. She was a daddy's girl, so this affected her life miserably. When Stanley was alive, he would often bring Cymphonique to Avalon hood days and various Gangster Crip functions. She grew up with the kids in the 40 AGC, 53 AGC, 88 AGC, 87 KCG, and 924 HCG areas through the school system as well. She has no other siblings, but have cousins who have ties to various gangs from the westside of South Central to the eastside and even some in Davis. Chambers grew up accustomed to the Gangster Crip lifestyle at a young age, and would eventually begin to act out as if she were put on a hood under the Avalon Crip identity. From elementary all the way up to middle school, Cymphonique would claim the 88 Avalon Gardens Crip (88AGC) set at school and would often get into it with females from rival hoods. Her father disapproved this and ensured that she didn't get put on the set by any means. Cymphonique's eager behavior of being apart of her dad's hood is why she got kicked out of school in 9th grade. A gang-related event happened at school involving girls from a rival Bloods gang jumping Cymphonique at lunch. This prompted Cymphonique to come back to school with a knife, but not doing anything with it. She ended up fighting one of the girls, and put hands on a teacher & security guard in the process of the fight getting broken up. Following Cymphonique's expulsion from Davis High School, she had to go to a school in the lower eastern district of Rancho, near 40 Avalon Gangster Crip territory, Rancho High School. And with this change, Cymphonique had to live with her father's mother, Jacqueline "Crip Jaccie" Chambers, whom was a 1st generation East Side Crip banger back in her hay day. During Cymphonique's stay at her grandmother's, her father would get killed by 84 Main Street Mafia Crip members and she'd develop more of a affiliation with the 40 Avlaon Gangster Crips in the area.

A music video by a public member of the Madd Swan Family Bloods a/k/a Byrd Gang. WELCOME TO SWAN LAKEโ The Mad Swan Bloods or Byrd Gang, are a blood gang located on the East Side of South Central, Los Santos. Their hood stretches from Macdonald Street to Carson Avenue. This gang is predominately African American, but in recent years the Swans have amassed a large amount of Mexican members. This group was originally known as the Main Street Swans, but they eventually changed their name as well as their alignment after their original founder was murdered. Elvis Dexter, the original founder, was often seen hanging around some of the most original gangs in Los Santos. Surprisingly, Dexter was close in relationship with many of the Original East Crips in the early 1970's, but he eventually broke off and founded the Main Street Swans. Within a couple of years, Dexter was murdered in a park by the alleged Hoover Crips. The Swans then carried on his legacy by establishing many new gangs as well as sets under the gang. When it comes to the Madd Swan Bloods, they are located on the eastside of Los Santos, but can be seen around different areas of south Los Santos. The Madd Swan bloods are broken down into different sets, and these sets consist of the 77th Street Madd Swan Bloods, the 79th Street Madd Swan Bloods, the 80th Street Madd Swan Bloods, and the 84th Street Madd Swan Bloods. Although the Madd Swans are one of the largest Swan subsets, there is also the Swan Family Bloods. The Swan Family Bloods emerged from the abyss along with the Madd Swan Bloods, but they kept their own identity. The Family Swans get their name because of their alliance with the Madd Swan Bloods and their alignment with the Family Bloods umbrella. Gangs like the Innoncence Family Gangster Bloods and the Centinela Park Family Gangster Bloods are both closely allied with the Swan Family Bloods as well as the Mad Swan Bloods. Even through their affiliation with the Family Bloods, this gang is located on the eastside of Los Santos. Their hood stretches from Carson Avenue to Covenant Avenue. Inside of the Family Swans umbrella there are two subsets, the 89th Street Swan Family Bloods and the 92nd Street Family Swan Bloods. THE SAN FRANCISCO 49ER'Sโ The Swans has many different internal alliances, with one of them being the 849 Mad Swan Family Bloods or the 49 Swan Family Bloods. This alliance is between the 84 Mad Swan Bloods and the 89 Swan Family Bloods. The area they call home is located inside of the Shady Eighties. The Shady Eighties is also claimed by numerous gangs that fall in the streets of 81st through 89th. Gangs like the 83 Hoover Criminals, 83 Gangster Crips, 88 Avalon Gangster Crips, 89 East Coast Crips, 87 Kitchen Crips, and the 84 Main Street Mafia Crips are located in the Shady Eighties as well and you might hear them claiming it as well. Obviously, the eighties varies depending on which side of Los Santos you are from. Of the two gangs, there are numerous clique inside of the gangs. In modern day, the 849 Madd Swan Family Bloods are in their "YG" or "Young Gangster" generation with many of their members being between the ages of 12 to 20 years. Many of the young forerunners within the gang fall into different cliques between the two gangs. One of the newer cliques in the 84 Mad Swan Bloods is the Young Park Boyz or the 8500 Young Park Boyz. This 85th street clique is a band of young Swans who pursue many different tasks around the neighborhood from drug sale to armed robbery. A few streets down, newer cliques of the 89 Family Swan Bloods have came to be as well. For example, the newest clique from the 89 Swan Family Bloods is the 8800 Young Bird Gang or YBG's. This group shares the likenesses of the 84 Mad Swan Bloods. They both focus on making money and running their neighborhoods in number. Both gangs find themselves beefing with similar hoods around Eastern and South Central, Los Santos. Crip gangs like the 76 East Coast Crips, 89 East Coast Crips, 97 East Coast Crips, 87 Kitchen Crips, 84 Main Street Crips, and the 88 Avalon Gardens Gangster Crips are all common enemies of the 849 Mad Family Swan Bloods. In addition to the crips, the 849 Mad Family Swan Bloods beef with a handful of blood gangs. Blood gangs such as the Hacienda Village Bloods, Bebop Rancho Bloods, and the 92 Bishop Rancho Bloods are all relative enemies in the area. There are also distant beefs and neutralities as well. The Swans beef with many west side gangs like the Neighborhood Crips, 83 Gangster Crips, Denver Lane Gangster Bloods, and sometimes the Hoovers. THE SWAN BLOODS AND THE EAST COAST CRIPSโ The Swan Bloods and the East Coast Crips have had a very violent rivalry since the beginning of both gangs. On February 2, 1990 a shooting broke out between two parties. Allegedly, two un-affiliated males were standing in a neighborhood belonging to the Mad Swan Bloods. Eye witnesses state that the two males were in red attire as well, which was a common indicator for bloods at the time. Within moments, a green Cadillac drove past the duo, doing a double take after noticing their clothing. The driver then pulled into a burger restaurant parking lot and hopped out, then making his way towards the group. Upon the male's approach, he began unveiling a weapon from his right side. Once the two males spotted the weapon, the young boys took off running. The shooter then started firing at the two, and while shooting, he shouted "East Coast Crip" and kept sending shots at the group. The male had appeared to be firing a .22 caliber pistol from a distance of approximately 30 feet. Although the male missed many of his shots, he eventually struck on of the male's in his lower back, killing him. When you think about this situation in today's time, this un-called for murder was probably a result of the rising "color-banging" epidemic back in Los Santos during the early 90's. For those who are not familiar with color-banging, it is the idea of "banging on" someone who is wearing the colors of your enemies. For example, if someone were to wear blue or red in the 90's, they would have most likely been subject to gang violence because of the color they are wearing. In the sense of now, color-banging is seen as a pre-historic idea. It was abandoned as the years passed because of how "silly" the idea is. In today's time, you will see bloods dressed in all blue and crips dressed in all red.
