However, the LA Times recently carried an article about lack of law enforcement in the newly-built VA housing (with its increased veteran population). Apparently, the LAPD does not have jurisdiction, the LA County Sheriff is nominally in charge but operates out of West Hollywood and doesn't show up, and VA's own police department is focused on just the VA hospital. As a result, there has been a climate of lawlessness and lack of responsibility.*
It was unclear from the article who - if anyone - provides security at the stadium when it is in use by UCLA. Does UCPD have jurisdiction? It might be a good idea to clarify who is in charge before there is an unfortunate incident.
