Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox criminal organization The Cedar Block Piru is a "set" of the Piru gang alliance, which itself is part of the larger Bloods gang alliance.[1] The gang gained notability for its connection to rapper The Game, who has referenced the gang in several of his songs.[2]

History

Formation

The Cedar Block Piru formed around 1980 in the west side of Compton.[3] The name was derived from a residential street called Cedar Street.

1992 Murder of Allen King

In December 1992, two soldiers from Fort Lewis, Washington, aided Cedar Block Piru members in the murder of Allen King and his three children.[4] King and his three children were stabbed to death by members of the Cedar Block Piru, who were driven to King's house by the two soldiers.[5] It is believed the gang targeted King because they believed that King reported the gang for operating a drug house.
