   Law enforcement officials in Los Angeles have charged nine alleged   
   gang members with committing six homicides, multiple shootings and   
   various other crimes in a pocket of South L.A. hit hard by the   
   city’s recent surge in violence.   
      
   Police said all nine men — identified in charging documents as   
   members of the Kitchen Crips — regularly committed violence in   
   furtherance of the gang and in retaliation for threats to its   
   members, instilling fear and attempting to assert control in   
   neighborhoods including Florence-Firestone and Watts. The Kitchen   
   Crips are a predominantly Black gang that claims as its territory an   
   area of South Los Angeles east of the 110 Freeway.   
      
   Among their victims were individuals whom they believed to be   
   members of rival Bloods sets and whom they conspired to kill,   
   prosecutors alleged. One was a 61-year-old bystander killed when the   
   men opened fire at a rival on a scooter, and another was killed when   
   they opened fire into a crowd of people at the Nickerson Gardens   
   public housing development, prosecutors alleged.   
      
   “It was one gang that was terrorizing several communities,” said   
   Capt. Adrian Gonzalez, commander of the LAPD South Bureau’s Homicide   
   Division. “It’s the gang life, and part of what they try to do is   
   spread fear and influence.”
