Map advises crews visiting for Los Angeles Navy Week to avoid San Pedro downtown business area, while the city of Long Beach's amenities praised.
“They've served in war-ravaged countries around the world, but Navy crews were warned this week to stay clear of downtown San Pedro while they were in port,” reports Donna Littlejohn, staff writer for the Long Beach Press-Telegram. Maps issued by the Naval Criminal Investigative Service were handed to ship crew members after the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier arrived at the Port of Los Angeles on Monday warning them of areas that could be dangerous to visit. The Lincoln is one of four ships participating in the week-long Navy Week event, with public ship tours offered through the weekend.
