Yes, it’s all over this country, but DHS is worried about you and me!

From my old hometown last week.

Gang violence is on the rise in Medford.[Oregon]

In this week’s Crimestoppers, we take a closer look at the growing gang problem in this area.

Police have arrested six people associated with three gang attacks in just the past few weeks.

The most recent attack, police say, three teenagers beat up a 29-year-old father from Ashland while he was eating with his wife and child at the food court in the mall on Saturday.

Gangs have been in the area for years, but now some say the gang members are getting more dangerous and reaching new levels of violence.

Police say four gang members jumped a 16-year-old in Medford late last month, severely fracturing his jaw.

Police say this local highschoolers’ been hit by a gang before.

Lt. Tim Doney with Medford Police says, “we believe this particular man was targeted twice by the group because he wouldn’t join the gang.”

Matt Sweeney works with incarcerated youth gang members and those trying to get out.

“We’re being invaded,” he says.
