IMPROVEMENTS ARE NEEDED FIGHTING PARTY HOUSES IN THE ANTELOPE VALLEY…
ALMOST EVERY WEEKEND SHOTS ARE FIRED AND PEOPLE ARE KILLED AND WOUNDED AT THESE OUTLAW ONLINE RENT PARTIES…
SELLING BOOZE AND PROBABLY DOPE TO THE PARTIERS…

EITHER DEPUTIES OR VOLUNTEERS SHOULD BE CLOSELY MONITORING SOCIAL MEDIA FOR PARTY ANNOUNCEMENTS…
AND THE REAL PROPERTY OWNERS SHOULD BE HELD FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE BOTH CIVILLY AND CRIMINALLY…

Frontier has always been a sketchy street but now the enter area from 30th East to 40th East is a mess.
Palmdale is turning into gang land and the Antelope Valley Sheriff are the busiest in the county. The Palmdale Mayor Pro Temp’s son might has well be named Hunter.
