Thank you #nationallatinopeaceofficersassociation for inviting LASD HQ to be part of the community’s car show. Every vehicle looked amazing, from lowriders, customs, bombitas, dragsters, street rods, bikes and imports! We brought 2 of our classic vehicles.

It is great to see that our community can come together and share our stories thru the history of the car culture in Los Angeles.

We are looking forward to the next event!

South Africa: While the last week of violence and looting saw major retailers such as Makro and Pick n Pay suffer significant damage, experts have warned that it will ultimately be smaller and medium-sized businesses that likely won’t reopen their doors in South Africa again. Professor Brownhilder Neneh, head of the business management department at the University of the Free State, told the Sunday Times that smaller businesses were devastated by the attacks.

“Horrifying figures are coming from different business councils. At least 70% of small businesses which are affected by the violence are black-owned.”

This was echoed by small business consultant Melanie de Nysschen, who said the riots would not only be devastating for businesses directly affected by the violence but also those dependent on enterprises to produce, sell and distribute their products. (Read more.)

European flooding: At least 183 dead in German, local authorities said. At least 110 are dead in Rhineland-Palatinate, according to the Koblenz Police and 46 are dead in North Rhine-Westphalia, according to the German Ministry of Interior. In Belgium, at least 27 are dead and 103 missing, according to the Belgian Interior Minister. The death toll is expected to rise. Many are still missing more than two days after massive flooding hit the region. Many areas are still grappling without electricity or telephone service. Belgian broadcaster RTBF reported that some 17,500 do not have power and approximately 30,000 households do not have access to drinking water as of Saturday morning in Belgium. About 3,500 homes have no gas and the lack of supply may last for several weeks. The severe weather triggered widespread evacuations. Some 700 people were evacuated from part of the German town of Wassenberg after the breach of a dike on the Run River.
