Los Angeles District Attorney (DA) George Gascón launched a program last week to shuttle employees—who work in his office and are assigned to downtown’s Civic Center area—to and from their cars amid a string of public safety incidents, according to an internal memo from his office reviewed by The Epoch Times.

“Security incidents involving aggressive confrontations initiated by members of the public have occurred to our employees assigned in the Civic Center area, while walking between their vehicles or transportation area and the office,” the memo read regarding the new program.
