But neither saw violence approaching that of Los Angeles in the 1850s.In his Reminiscences of a Ranger, Horace Bell reports that ""midnight raids and open day robbery and assassinations of defenseless or unsuspecting Americans were of almost daily occurrence"" in southern California, a territory newly acquired from Mexico. To combat this lawlessness, in 1853 the citizens of Los Angeles formed a volunteer mounted police force known as the Los Angeles Rangers.
