Hope this improves the climate in Antioch. Anything which helps to raise the quality of life & clean up the looks & safety of the neighborhoods (one of these houses is near me) is a great thing.
Wish they would do this more often and get all these people out of Antioch who ruin it for the good folks. Hopefully they are not out of jail for a while.
Those “bangs” were LOUD!!!!!!!!!! Glad this was the outcome and not a shooting.
Sure alot of drug dealers in Antioch getting busted lately! I hope these morons get the message and move back to Oakland.
Great job to all the agencies involved!!! Thank you for making it safe for all the good people of Antioch.
