Yes and no. The city manager of Manhattan Beach was attacked some years ago, and every few years or so, they find a body in Ballona Creek. I jump on and off the path at a housing project. And there are a lot of homeless at where it goes under the 91 Freeway.

But there are all sorts of people on it that make better victims than me ... I see a lot of women walking by themselves in the dark and the like. I also keep my eyes open and if there appear to be n'ere do wells about (and sometimes, there are), I make sure I am not alone when I pass them. A couple of years ago, there was a group standing around in 80 degree weather with hoodies. I turned around and took another way home. lol
