The 207 Most Wanted Criminals in Los Angeles
After a controversial city employee salary database (plus one for overtime) and an LAUSD salary database, the Daily News is at it again, this time with the LAPD's most wanted.
"Some 207 people are wanted by the Los Angeles Police Department for 15 types of crimes ranging from DUI to fraud to murder," the Valley based paper says. "Of that number, 196 are men, 11 are women. About 80 percent, or 167, are Hispanic, 21 are white, and 13 are black."
You can browse by name, sex, race and crime.
In the image to the right, starting at the top left: Larry Bazuaye for identity theft, Suzanne Agnes Berron for grand theft, Vahagan Akopyan for murder and Sallvador Magana Barajas for attempted murder.
