Oakland residents demand action from officials on rising crime and violence.

Oakland City Councilmember Dan Kalb held a "Crime and Violence Meeting" to address concerns about violence in his district. Residents voiced their concerns, including a business owner who has been targeted four times in six years. The local police chief and interim chief of the department of violence prevention were also present. The meeting was vocal, with some attendees expressing anger towards the city's efforts to extend services to some people committing crimes. Councilmember Kalb encouraged people to continue to email him about problems they are seeing in hopes of finding more solutions.
