Dozens of downtown residents went to City Hall on Thursday to demand more foot patrols in their neighborhoods, saying they are frustrated by assaults, open-air drug sales and incidents of harassment outside their homes.
More than 50 people, most of them affiliated with the group DTLA Strong, appeared at City Hall to demand that city leaders assign more foot patrols in downtown Los Angeles.
Police Chief Michel Moore, who appeared later in the day, said the LAPD division that covers downtown has 414 sworn officers — the largest number in the city, up from 404 in 2016. DTLA Strong, which describes itself as a group focused on addressing downtown problems, submitted a petition with more than 1,700 signatures calling for additional LAPD foot patrols, saying they are needed to match the increased population. Over the past two decades, dozens of residential buildings have opened — some new, others converted from old office buildings or other uses.
