Thugs/Tagging Crews
Taggers will write on anything they can. White cargo vans are preferred because they are highly mobile and visible.
Taggers will at times draw characters as there signature mark on the streets. This drawing was by a member from an older crew, JBF (Just Bustin’ Funk)

Identifying a “Gang House”There are some visual clues that you may have a “gang
house” in your neighborhood:• Foot traffic at all hours of the day and night• Teenagers and young adults always “hanging out” and frequent
parties, especially on the weekends• Residents seem to wear a lot of a certain type of color• Increase in tagging in the community, particularly near the
residence, and subsequent “crossing out” of tags• Possible increase in violence in the community (i.e.: assaults,
robberies, car vandalism, fights, etc.)• Possible increase in drug sales and usage in the community• Intimidation of residents
