We had the opportunity to go on a Ride Along with the @lapd_hollenbeck Gang Unit. First order of the day is roll call...everyone is getting their unit designation, their mission for the day and a recap of significant events from the previous shift. As the day unfolded, gang officers had some great community interactions and rose to the challenge of safely reducing gang activity. #LAPD #VirtualRideAlong #LAPDLive | LAPD Headquarters
