ABSTRACT

The police spend a lot of time working with property owners to address gang problems; a good example of this is dealing with apartment managers and property owners at apartment complexes and businesses where gangs like to congregate. There are a lot of things police officers can do to attack gangs, one of which is focusing attention on the places gangs like to hang out. In addition, there are a lot of things property owners can do to protect their property, reduce liability, and keep their tenants or customers safe.
