Police beat where i live. I need to know my neighbors better. They actually told us they want to get out and get to know each other. Were looking at increasing Community Resident engagement in our highcrime neighborhoods, activating neighborhood associations who have been latent for many years. We have free cleanup assistance Tree Planting beautification projects for up to 5,000 grants. Theres so many things our city is offered and what i have found in my presentations in those neighborhoods in long beach, those neighbors dont even know these programs exist. So our job as a city is to go door to door and activate those residents to come to the Association Meetings and to begin to reform their neighborhoods from the inside out.

All of this in a coordinated series of bomb blasts and shootings that began almost 24 hours ago. Now, isis is claiming responsibility and warning that these attacks are, quote, the first of the storm. The president of france says that this is war. Isis says there were eight attackers armed with automatic rifles and wrapped in explosives. The french say they were seven attackers and they are giving us much more information we have learned in the past few minutes. All of the attackers from last night were killed, one was a French National already known to police. And police are now trying to track down accomplices.
