The investigation was dubbed “Operation Blue Rags” and focused on the Linda Vista Crips, West Coast Crips and the Rollin 40s Neighborhood Crips, located in the Northeast region of San Diego, California. In the early 1990s, the Linda Vista Crips were part of an nine-month investigation conducted by local, state and federal agencies. On April 20, 2013, the Linda Vista Park, was featured in the news after the death of 19-year-old Richard “Richi” Knight, who was stabbed twice in the chest and once in the back during a gang-fight between two rival gangs. The Linda Vista Crips originated around the Linda Vista Recreation Center (community park), which sits directly on Levant Street between Genevese Ave and Linda Vista Road. They share their community (Linda Vista) with the Tiny Oriental Crips (TOC) and the Linda Vista 13 (LV13), an Latino gang. The Linda Vista Crips (LVC), also known as the Linda Vista Rollin 60s Crips (1960s) and 1222 Crips (12-Twenty Two) is a multi-ethnic street gang which operates on the North Side of the Linda Vista, community in San Diego, California.
