9/14 Woman in Critical Condition after stabbing on Santa Monica Blvd.
Woman was reported in critical condition after a stabbing [in the vicinity or near] Beaches – Tom Tom, in the late night/early morning hours. Jacob Shaw, owner of Beaches WeHo confirmed that his security staff was present and provided “life saving assistance” to the victim. “After the sheriff’s training on mass shooting we had hoped we would never have to use it. [trauma kits]. The incident occurred at approximately 2:45 am.
LASD sends out message of street closures between San Vicente and Robertson for Law Enforcement Investigation. An earlier indication of her death came from a local business owner who said they had been told by the Sheriff that she had passed.
Reports indicate a fight between two exes that escalated.
9:08 am. Sunday Morning Reported Stabbing Shuts Santa Monica Blvd.
Santa Monica Blvd. is closed between Robertson and San Vicente. WEHOonline received a report of an alleged stabbing.
Police tape stopped walkers from using the sidewalks as the entire area was blocked off. A sheriff deputy stated the area is closed off for an expected 4-5 hours.
GYM Bar WeHo is open, patrons need to walk down Hilldale. Abbey is also open, 33taps and showtime cannot open for their normal business hours.
What would prevent this from happening again would be:
1. Knife control
2. Defunding the Sheriff
3. Hiring more unarmed social workers
4. More Rainbow crosswalks
We are in desperate need of more police presence in Weho! There should be teams of roving police officers walking up and down the strip. If you walk down Santa Monica Blvd on any given Friday or Saturday night, you would think you were in Vegas! Scores of young people with open bottles or drinks, tossing those wherever they choose when they finish. The homeless issue, many who clearly have mental health issues has only gotten worse. Where is our Sheriffs Department? Get them out on the street and make their presence known!
Hold on, he knifes her to death and the cops released him? Really?
Please consider the part “he was released from custody after county prosecutors sent the case back to law enforcement for further investigation.” Basically they lacked the necessary evidence to charge or hold him.
I just got the news a few hours ago that 20-year-old Maritza Gonzalez Has Died from the injuries she suffered in the knife attack. All we can do now is offer our deepest condolences and hope the cherished memories of those who knew her brings them some comfort in this time of great loss and sorrow. 💝
All while some jackasses in Sacramento (Sen. Weiner) and some on our City Council push for the bars to stay open and serve alcohol until 4am.
Get a clue.
More like get some manners visitors to WeHo. WeHo has descended down the same path South Beach in Miami and other gay enclaves have. Gays find a disadvantaged area. Beautify it. Make it desirable, safe, and fun over several decades. Property values go up, price our own selves out. We say oh, lets be more inclusive. Trashy straights come in, crime comes back and these things start occuring. Welcome to last stage gayborhood cycle. Rinse and repeat.
Truth!!!!!!!!!!
LOL
100%
…and this is what happens when BOYSTOWN goes “inclusive”
Lovely neighborhood.
And all over the rest of the country Latinx people are falling victim to violent systemic racism.
STOP DUDE
You might feel differently when they come for you.
LOL
Domestic violence situations happen in any venue, straight or gay. People are gonna do what they’re gonna do.
You just seem to hop on anything that tries to make WEHO look bad.
You should pack up your keyboard and move on! But wait, that won’t make you feel like a big conservative man.

He/They have been whining for years. I thought they had moved away but apparently they just can’t quit WeHo.
Yeah he won’t quit. He’s really a joke at this point.
