oh yeah where do you go? im very familiar with the area... what street?
liar
You know San Leandro Blvd, crossed with 85th Ave? Let's see here, about two months ago, there was a rash of murders in the area, where in 7 days or so, 6 people were killed. One latino was in line for a burrito at a taco cart on 89th.
The Oakland police hired 20+ more units to patrol the area and help them out.
As well, I was driving right at the coliseum where the A's play, and saw a huge stand-off between the cops and someone. A cops car jump the median, does a donut and the officer gets out wielding his weapon. Three more cars come careening down San Leandro Blvd. and stop traffic, right across from the Bart Station.
How familiar are you with the area?
