Q: What should I do if I witness a gang crime in progress?
A: Call the police in the jurisdiction in which the crime has occurred. This usually can be done anonymously. Community residents should never attempt to apprehend gang members on their own.

A: Currently, there are TARGET units operating in the cities of Anaheim (two teams), Garden Grove, Huntington Beach, Orange, Santa Ana (three teams), Tustin, and Westminster.

The multi-city teams include the North County team which includes the cities of Buena Park, Fullerton, and La Habra and the South County team which covers the multiple south Orange County communities served by the Orange County Sheriff’s Department.
