The Los Angeles Police Department has responded to rising incidents of “follow-home” robberies by telling residents to “cooperate and comply” with robbers.
“We are sharing this community alert in an effort to increase awareness of a series of robberies occurring in the City of Los Angeles,” the LAPD said in defending this alert.

LAPD crime statistics state that from the time period between August 29 to September 25 to the time period between September 26 to October 23, robberies went up 12.4 percent. Other advice that the LAPD gave residents include:
- Be aware of your surroundings, ensuring there’s nothing unusual before getting out of your car or leaving a restaurant, stores, malls, or clubs.
- When in public, be cautious of displaying purses, jewelry, watches, and other luxury items.
- All suspicious activity should be recorded and reported to police. When possible, write down the descriptions of any suspicious person and/or vehicle.
- If you think you’re being followed while driving, call 911 and try to drive to the closest police station.
For people who do become victims of robberies, the LAPD also instructs them to:
- Immediately dial 911. Write down what you can remember about the crime, including descriptions of the suspect(s) and their vehicle(s).
- Don’t follow or chase the assailant(s) after a robbery.
The fact that robberies are spiking in Los Angeles should come as a surprise to nobody, as crime is currently spiking all over the country, particularly in cities and states that Democrats run. This is what happens when police are defunded and shamed in the way that the left has been targeting them over the past year.
Go figure.
