Blood Alley Gang

Many neighborhoods can not maintain themselves with the level of competition. They may get pulled into other neighborhoods or they just fade out. Only discuss those areas from LOS ANGELES that are gone.

u should ask Madd Ronald... he may be able to tell you. From my understanding, they werent Blood. The gang was named after a nick name of an alley were some bodies were found chopped up or something. So the gang took their name from that. They gone later evolved into Neighborhoods then Rollin 20's. However, Madd Ronald said that the reason the 20's klaimed Blood rather than crip was because of their grandfather gang... Blood Alley. They decided to keep with tradition.

you are correct. They started in the late 1950s, but not sure of the exact year. They were located on Cordova Avenue off Budlong before the 10 freeway was built.

cant say for sure, but i doubt it, because the importance of red and blue didn't come until about 1972 or 1973. But maybe they did where red, but if they did, it didnt mean the same thing as it does today.

*It's interesting, because I remember in 1997, my friend's grandfather was telling me how he use to run with the "Devil Hunters." At first I thought he was lying, seeing as how he once was in the Nation of Islam, so I felt that his term "Devil Hunters," was an esoteric way of him admitting to his membership in the Nation, or at the very least, the core mission of the Nation, which is to "hunt" "devils." See what I mean?

Well anyway, this cat was on some old generational warfare tip, when he said that younger gangs (he was referring to black gangs) don't know squat about originality, seeing as how his outfit (The Devil Hunters) sported the color "red" as a gang identifier, way before the bloods. Mind you, he didn't have any photographs, or whatnot, neither did I ask, because as was implied before, I felt that he was somewhat making this up. HOWEVER, when I came to this site, and saw the "Devil Hunters" listed as a bonafide gang, that really did exist, I now regret the fact that I didn't get more info from this old guy.

You see, he died in 1999 from prostate cancer, and his family really can't provide too much information, or wont, when it comes to his past, but I do know that he was one of the cats indicted (he was later released; so he says) during the Ronald Stokes case in 1960, where the cops raided a Nation of Islam mosque, and shot up some FOI.

Another important point is that it would be misleading to call this gang a "Blood" gang in the sense of the current Bloods. Even though they called themselves Blood alley, it was a common term that black folks used to greet each other before the Blood gangs emerged during the 1970s, so I would not call "Blood Alley" a Blood gang, because those labels didnt exist then.

OK, didnt know that, but I just want people to know that they were NOT Blood members as most people understand it. Why they called it Blood alley I didnt know. Would you happen to know what year the killings happened? I would like to find a story on these killings if possible.

yeah thats true....

i was loccked up with a older blood from that area...and i asked him if they started as blood alley, he said naw

he said they got started as a car club in the early 70s and became bloods in 74 and Rollin 20s in 76

he said some of them piccked up that blood alley story so they got a bigger history....but the blood alley gang existed in the 50s and there is no connection to the NHB's exept they share the same neighborhood

but naw i dont know when this happend

Blood Alley that's some OG stuff foreal this gang was always spoke up on in the 20s and from my knowledge the 20s branched off blood alley. The Blood Alley may have not been like the modern day bloods which we know of but some the original members played a big role and had a lot of influence on the ygs in the area which are the OGs of 20s. I always knew about several car clubs in the 20s from then to now but didn't know that was in their origins my uncle told me it was NEIGHBORHOOD in 71 and they formed from influence that the blood alley had on them.

I don't think those early gangs repped with color. It wasn't part of their style.
