Good job nabbing Dog Pound members

Thank you to Chief Jerry Dyer and his staff for their recent work to apprehend vicious and violent members of Fresno’s Dog Pound gang.

We’ve wondered for so many years why this gang and other gangs in this area and around our country can’t be stopped. We have the ability to make this country safer if we can muster the courage and resources to stop the Mexican drug cartels who supply these gang members with the drugs that are crippling and killing our people.

Joyce Bjerk, Fresno
