Although the latter component was not widely available when the intervention began, researchers found that the intervention helped reduce violent and gang crime in the targeted districts and that crime also decreased in surrounding communities. 606 $aViolent crimes$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles$xPrevention 606 $aJuvenile delinquency$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles$xPrevention 606 $aFirearms and crime$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles 606 $aGangs$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aViolent crimes$xPrevention. 615 0$aJuvenile delinquency$xPrevention. 615 0$aFirearms and crime 615 0$aGangs 676 $a364.4/09794/94 701 $aTita$b George$0997466 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456060403321 996 $aReducing gun violence$92287608 997 $aUNINA
