On Wednesday afternoon, Gov. Gavin Newsom announced a multi-agency task force, headed by the California Highway Patrol to crack down on rail theft
The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department and the Los Angeles Police Department along with CHP will work with Union Pacific agents to strengthen patrols and increase intelligence to prevent future raids.“It’s going to be a full-time effort for 90 to 100 days and then we will reevaluate after that,” said CHP Assitant Chief Charlie Sampson.
From October 2020 to October 2021 rail theft has exponentially increased by 356%, according to Union Pacific. In a letter addressed to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office, the company blamed what it called a “spiraling crisis” on the no cash bail policy put forth by the District Attorney’s office and said many of the arrested suspects return the next day.“It’s not just arrest and walk away,” said Newsom.
