The Westwood Village Improvement Association held a virtual merchant meeting Tuesday with the LAPD to discuss crime and safety. Local business representatives, stakeholders and WVIA executive director Andrew Thomas attended the meeting. The Tuesday meeting followed a citywide tactical alert issued by the police department on Nov. 26 due to multiple smash-and-grab robberies around the city...

LAPD representatives James Allen, Scott Alpert and Jonathan Tom delivered a presentation on crime and safety in Westwood Village... Tom said that the LAPD may consider placing a decoy vehicle in the Village to deter crime and that it has been working with UCPD on additional patrols through the Village.
