  • VENICE, CA-Los Angeles police officers swiftly responded to a distress call on Friday, May 10, regarding an agitated woman reportedly wielding a knife at Venice Beach. Witnesses described the woman as displaying threatening behavior, prompting concerns from beachgoers and necessitating police intervention.
    Upon arrival, officers encountered the woman, who appeared to be in a disturbed state. Through a coordinated effort, the officers managed to subdue and apprehend her without any physical altercation, ensuring the safety of all parties involved. The woman was subsequently transported by ambulance to a local hospital for psychological evaluation.
    The Los Angeles Police Department has commended the responding officers for their effective handling of the situation, emphasizing their training in de-escalation techniques. The incident highlights the challenges faced by law enforcement in managing public safety while also addressing issues related to mental health.
    Authorities have not released further details about the woman's identity or condition. The area was cleared shortly after the incident, and normal activities resumed at Venice Beach.
    This incident serves as a reminder of the critical role that law enforcement and emergency services play in managing potentially volatile situations, ensuring public safety while providing necessary care for individuals in crisis.

    She was kicking her legs so she isn't paralyzed, most of them just use a wheelchair to sit and get sympathy while they panhandle. It really is an insult to people that are legitimately paralyzed. My friend has been in a wheel chair for 25 years after he went over the falls at the Wedge and head planted into the sand.

    So much of this problem would be solved if the county did not delay the implementation of the new conservatorship laws. California legislature passed the law that would allow first responders, families and others to force individuals into mental health conservatorships for up to two years. The law also includes substantial drug abuse as one of the criteria. But LA County elected to postpone enforcement of the law for several years. This would solve so much of the issues faced with homelessness 90% of them are mentally ill and or drug induced psychosis

      Mental Health do get 100% involved by the time they get the 5150 in the hospital. She's obviously threatening people, acting homeless or is homeless, usually on drugs and get's thrown out for at least threatening people where she lived, or stealing or screaming so the neighbors don't like the tenants anymore and have to throw out the screamer. They are sneaky to violent to crazy shit in a house like they might throw out good stuff, cause a fire, or harass people they live with, sloppy with personal hygiene and in the kitchen and talking and yelling, on meth or can't get a fix, especially out of a wheel chair. There's been a lot of them that would kill their mother for the next fix. It's a long wait between someone showing up the fixes. Her money? Might have been the reason for the knife. So many people handed over their debit cards for an errand, and they came back with the card but had robbed the account.
