Star turn: Gang wearing 'Boys logo faces fines

"Authorities obtained an injunction last month preventing the city's largest and most violent street gang, the Colonia Chiques, from wearing the team's clothing within a 6.6-square-mile "safety zone" in the heart of Ventura County's largest city.

The dozen gang members who have been served with the court order also are barred from congregating in public and flashing gang signs. Violators can be arrested or face misdemeanor charges.

Since the injunction was granted, the Chiques have laid low and street violence has subsided, said Oxnard Police Chief Art Lopez."
