Woodland Hills is in the West San Fernando Valley section of Los Angeles. Today's daylight home invasion robbery occurred in a residential upper middle class area.
There is no official word yet on the identity of the perps but it's likely they had some connection to local gangs in the San Fernando area, which include MS13, Crips, Bloods, many different Mexican gangs, and several other Nationalities' organized crime gangs.
The attack and home invasion robbery of the 96 year old woman took place in West L.A. a little South of U.C.L.A. in a fairly nice middle class residential area.
The purported bad guy in this case has been acting alone and according to police reports, is considered to be a serial felon.
My friend was living there until recently relocating to Pasadena.
Its just that everytime I hear of a home invasion, it usually turns out to be somebody (perp and/or victim) connected to the drug trade. Chinese gangs are notorious for targeting wealthy Chinese in NY/NJ and Cali, for example. I used the Wonderland Murders as the classic example of drug-related home invasion.
We'll see what happens when the perp is caught (I hope soon).
