There's no question that the homelessness has expanded dramatically in Downtown LA but now business owners are demanding more from the city government in order to prevent another stabbing like the one that took place Tuesday.

Tuesday night's stabbing spree inside a target store in Downtown Los Angeles has residents and people who work in the area extremely concerned.

Fortunately, the stabbing did not result in a fatal conclusion but business owners say the attack was just one of many crimes that take place in the area on a daily basis. He told CBSLA Reporter Jasmine Viel that on a daily basis, people go into the Burlington store and steal items. The department store's policy is to to not provoke or try and stop shoplifters.

Stop voting for Democrats Problem solved

The new mayor should come up with a sound solution. However, the other business owners should invest in more outside security.

If the comments on this post were an accurate representation of democracy Bass would have lost in a landslide. Where are all the Bass supprters at? Do they just not use twitter?

Now that Bass is in office except nothing to be done about it.Moer of the same

Lol. And you still elected a fen Karen and fired a law and order sherif.

And yet you Angelinos still chose Karen Bass. Good luck!

AGRobBonta RobBonta robbonta where are you? come walk through dtla without security.. the crazies will make adobo out of you

And it’s only going to get worse; corrupt registrar wouldn’t allow the Gascon recall, now we have Gascon, Bass and a group of socialists who think social workers can deal w/mentally ill people and those high on drugs I’m sure they would’ve been a great help at Target yesterday.

Vigilante time!!

Maybe you didn’t hear but the election is over and rightwing fear mongering didn’t work.

The majority of the crimes plaguing businesses, and our streets, are NOT caused by 'mentally ill' people. They're committed by worthless low life thugs.

That’s what you voted for LA

Wait until they're told masks may be mandatory again.

Then they should've voted for RickCarusoLA unanimously

BLM movement and Body Cam made criminals commit crimes easier.

It is totally unsafe for anyone to be in downtown LA. Crime rate is high and there are peoples selling drugs on the street under bright lights. And police just look away. Because they can't do anything about it.

It is wild out there, I heard about a teenage girl getting shot and killed in a Burlington Coat Factory in North Hollywood last year by an armed and possibly unstable guy (not even a customer!) who ran in and shot up the place. Where was LAPD during that, huh

GavinNewsom and democrats way to start running businesses away

Belinda_and_cat Don’t worry ,,,democrats love crime and filth

And the lemmings go fishing for Bass, LA deserves everything coming

Thanks ericgarcetti MayorOfLA

Cops have the largest budget in the country and increases yearly. Patrol officers raking in over 200k/yr.

And just the beginning with Bass as Mayor it will be worst!!!
