Crime, Safety, and the Police

[Hargow20]

The shootings is very odd & sad. It is inexplicable why a candy seller would assassinated in the Zona. My only theory is that she was possibly a dealer or made deliveries for the dealers. Hopefully the police crack down on the dealers in the Zona. If the police had 1 or 2 foot patrols it would eliminate most of problems in the Zona. If anyone is in the Zona please post on the police enforcement.

My bad I didn't have a good look but from street it looked like a guy. She was kind of butch.

When I leave California and Tijuana, I sometimes think I must been crazy to walk around all these streets. The problem, for me anyway, is the Mexican people, are both short, so not physically intimidating, and not dressed like usa gangstas, and much more quieter. Compared to usa everyone kinda minds their own business. So I let my guard down but I really shouldn't be walking around any of these streets.

Sometimes the spidey sense doesn't work as well when you're not in a familiar environment, I catch myself having to re-calibrate sometimes too.

A female got shot and killed across from La Malquerida. She wasn't a "paradita" one report says she was a candy seller. Guy went up and shot her twice and ran to a taxi libre and was gone. Just a few days before they had another guy get shot and killed in front of Bar Delicious again.

I think these shootings happen more often than we realize. Surprised I never saw one of you mention hearing about a guy that was killed in the alley a couple weeks ago. One of my chica friends told me it happened around 10 pm either on the 15th or 16th, don't remember which one. She said everyone went about their business as if nothing happened.

This isn't just happening in the Zona but it's a daily routine in the city. The biggest difference so far this year is that they have already had about 40 women killed. This seems to be getting people to make more noise and they are expecting a large March next week March the 8th for international woman's day.

I think these shootings happen more often than we realize. Surprised I never saw one of you mention hearing about a guy that was killed in the alley last week. One of my chica friends told me it happened around 10 pm on the 23rd. She said everyone went about their business as if nothing happened. Perhaps we should avoid walking through the alleys for the time being just in case. Lately I only go down there when Im staying at Cascadas to meet with my regulars so no reason to really go through the alley anyway, for me at least. Proceed with caution.

I notice a lot of guys walk around fucking with their phones on the streets. Not sure if that is a good idea. Not only do you lose situational awareness. A shooter may misunderstood your phone to be a camera filming the shooting. And the next thing you know, you wake up in the hospital with a hole in you (if you are lucky).

Yup, my phone pretty much never leaves my pocket when Im in the area. Gotta be alert at all times.

The news hasn't said anything about her being a working girl. The pics I saw didn't seem to be dressed like you usually see a working girl dressed. One report said she worked selling candy. No reports on her name, but one said that she was in front of abarrrotes Valenzuela and a tattoo on her right arm of the name "Ramon".

OK. Thank You for the info.

Someone said an SG was shot. Does anyone know her name? I session with someone who stands there. I want to know if she is ok or not. Thanks.

Must have been a stray bullet. There is no reason why they would be involved. The police have allowed the dealers to operate to freely in the Zona.

This is vey disturbing My guess there was some sort of rivalry between street dealers. The police need to have some officers walking a beat in the area. The area by CeCe hotel is where most of the dealers hang out.

It is not a rumor as I saw the dead body yesterday at about 5 pm. They closed off the back side of the zona by libra parking. Many many cops and the dead body of a young male Mexican laying facedown in a pool of blood by the entrance of one the stores by Libra parking. Looks like a cartel hit.

[Captain Solo]

Quite a few dealers on that side of Constitucion, even an old woman. Apparently they were not sanctioned by Sinaloa cartel, so they are shot dead.

I have seen 2 guys shot dead in the bar next to Libra parking, one inside and one on the street. An old guy was shot dead in front of the barber shop. One was shot in the leg by policias in front of Ibiza ect.

These are street dealers earning $50 a day max, but willing to risk their lives for it.
