that it plans to increase patrols in the areas of 10 7-Eleven locations within LAPD’s Rampart, Hollywood, Wilshire and West L.A. Divisions.

Between Friday, July 12 and Friday, Sept. 20, there have been 14 separate robberies across the 10 stores in the area. In each instance, the crew rolls up to the stores on bicycles during the evening hours and steals items, damages property and leaves without paying, police said.

The group usually contains between 20 and 40 “youthful males” that appear to be teenagers of varying ethnicity and physical descriptors, police said. Witnesses have told authorities that the suspects have physically pushed them, although no injuries have been reported.

Police said 13 of the 14 robberies occurred on Friday nights. Wednesday marked the first time authorities said the string of robberies was connected to one individual group.

The locations and dates of the robberies are as follow:
