The Rollin 100s Crips (R100s), also known as the Rich Rollin 100s, are a coalition of street gangs operating throughout the Westmont, Athens, and Hawthorne areas of South Los Angeles County, California. Unlike a single unified gang, the Rollin 100s function as a network of multiple affiliated sets that operate under the broader Neighborhood Crip (NHC / Deuce / 2x) identity. This structure allows each set to maintain local autonomy while still participating in a larger alliance tied together by shared branding, territory, and rivalries.

Geographically, the Rollin 100s serve as the southern extension of the Rollin 90s, forming a continuous corridor of Neighborhood Crip influence across the western portion of South Los Angeles. Their positioning places them in a strategic zone where city boundaries transition into unincorporated county areas, making their territory both socially and operationally significant within the broader gang landscape.

Origins (1970s Expansion Era)

The Rollin 100s originated during the rapid expansion of the Crips in the 1970s, a period marked by the formation of numerous independent neighborhood-based sets throughout Los Angeles. During this era, gang identity was highly decentralized, with each set forming around local streets and social ties rather than centralized leadership. By 1978, there were approximately 45 active Crip sets, driven by the need for territorial protection as well as the emergence of street-level narcotics markets involving substances such as PCP and marijuana.

The areas that would later become associated with the Rollin 100s—particularly Westmont and Athens—developed into contested zones where multiple groups competed for influence. These conditions laid the foundation for the eventual consolidation of sets that would later align under the Rollin 100s identity.

1979 Split and Formation of the “Deuce” Identity

A defining moment in the development of the Rollin 100s occurred in 1979, when internal conflict fractured the Crips into two primary factions: the Neighborhood Crips (NHC / Deuce / 2x) and the Gangster Crips (GC / Tray / 3x). This division followed a violent dispute involving members of the Rollin 60s Neighborhood Crips and the Eight Tray Gangster Crips, which escalated into widespread factional violence across Los Angeles.

The sets that would later form the Rollin’ 100s aligned with the Neighborhood Crips, adopting the “Rollin” naming convention based on street numbers ending in zero. This system linked multiple sets across the 40s, 60s, 90s, and 100s, creating a unified identity that emphasized territorial continuity and mutual defense.

Territory

The Rollin 100s primarily operate within the Westmont, Athens, and Hawthorne areas of Los Angeles County, with their influence generally spanning the 100th Street corridors through the 120th Streets. This geographic range places them in a critical buffer zone between rival factions, particularly the Hoover Criminals and various Gangster Crip sets. Their territory represents a transition point between incorporated Los Angeles neighborhoods and surrounding county jurisdictions, which has historically contributed to both strategic advantages and intensified conflicts.

Within this territory, influence is typically centered around residential streets, apartment complexes, and commercial intersections such as liquor stores and small shopping centers. These locations often serve as gathering points and reinforce the localized identity of each set within the broader Rollin 100s alliance.

Gunnin Hunnids

The Rollin 100s are composed of multiple autonomous sets that operate independently while maintaining alignment under the Neighborhood Crip identity. These include the 111 Neighborhood Crips, who are widely associated with the “Rich Rollin” branding, as well as the 115 Neighborhood Crips, one of the older established sets in the area. Other notable groups include the Underground Crips (UGC), active between 103rd and 107th Streets and known for their association with Colts imagery, and the Westside Original Blocc Crips, who maintain a longstanding presence in Athens.

Additional sets such as the 104 Hard Time Hustler Crips, Budlong Gangster Crips, and the 120 Raymond Avenue Crips contribute to the overall structure of the alliance. Each set retains its own leadership, membership, and localized identity, but collectively they form a broader network that operates under shared alliances and rivalries.

Allies And Rivalries

The Rollin 100s are closely aligned with other Neighborhood Crip sets, forming part of a larger alliance that includes the Rollin 90s Neighborhood Crips and the Rollin 60s Neighborhood Crips. These alliances are reinforced through shared identity markers, including the “Rollin” designation and the “Deuce” affiliation, as well as geographic continuity across neighboring territories.

This network of alliances provides a framework for cooperation, particularly in conflicts involving rival factions. The shared structure also allows for the movement of influence and membership across different areas, strengthening the overall presence of the Neighborhood Crip alliance within Los Angeles County.

The Rollin 100s maintain longstanding rivalries with several groups, most notably the Hoover Criminals, who are widely considered their primary adversary. This rivalry dates back to territorial disputes in the 1980s and has continued across multiple generations, often marked by cycles of retaliatory violence.

In addition to the Hoovers, the Rollin 100s have conflicts with various Gangster Crip (3x) sets, as well as certain Blood-affiliated gangs in surrounding areas. These rivalries are influenced by both historical divisions within the Crip organization and ongoing competition for territory and influence.

Criminal Activities and Expansion

1980s–1990s: Drug Trade Expansion

During the 1980s, the introduction of crack cocaine significantly expanded the operational scope of the Rollin 100s and other Crip alliances. The profits generated from narcotics distribution allowed for increased access to firearms, rapid growth in membership, and the ability to expand beyond Los Angeles into other regions of the United States.

This period also saw an intensification of internal conflicts within the Crips, as well as escalating rivalries with external groups such as the Hoover Criminals. The spread of the Neighborhood Crip identity during this time contributed to its presence in multiple cities across the country.

Modern Operations

In more recent years, law enforcement investigations have linked individuals associated with the Rollin 100s to a range of criminal activities, including residential burglaries, identity theft, fraud, narcotics trafficking, and firearms violations. A notable case in 2025 involved a coordinated burglary crew connected to Rollin 100s members that was responsible for dozens of residential break-ins across Los Angeles County.

The operation demonstrated a level of organization that included the use of communication devices, coordinated entry strategies, and the handling of stolen property, reflecting an evolution from localized street activity to more structured criminal operations.

100 Days and 100 Nights (2015)

In 2015, the Rollin 100s were associated with a period of increased violence known as “100 Days and 100 Nights.” This period was characterized by a surge in retaliatory shootings and heightened tensions with rival groups, particularly the Hoover Criminals. The situation was further amplified by social media, where the hashtag #100Days100Nights circulated widely and contributed to public awareness of the conflict.

One documented incident during this period involved a coordinated multi-vehicle shooting tactic, sometimes referred to as the “car method,” in which multiple vehicles were used to facilitate the attack and ensure escape.

Law Enforcement and Legal Pressure

The Rollin 100s have been the focus of various law enforcement strategies over the years, including large-scale operations such as Operation Hammer, which involved mass arrest sweeps aimed at disrupting gang activity. Additional measures have included gang injunctions and the use of federal RICO statutes to target organized criminal activity.

In 2020, concerns were raised regarding the accuracy of the CalGang database, a system used to track suspected gang members. Investigations revealed potential inaccuracies, leading to increased scrutiny and calls for reform.

Culture and Influence

The broader Neighborhood Crip identity, including the Rollin 100s, has had a significant influence on West Coast hip-hop culture. Artists such as WC, who is associated with the 111 Neighborhood Crips, played a key role in popularizing cultural elements such as the Crip Walk. Figures like Nipsey Hussle and Snoop Dogg further contributed to the global recognition of Crip identity through music, fashion, and media.

This cultural influence has extended beyond Los Angeles, shaping perceptions of West Coast street culture worldwide while also reinforcing the identity within local communities.

Internal Dynamics

The internal structure of the Rollin 100s reflects a generational divide between older members, often referred to as “OGs,” and younger factions sometimes described as more active in street-level conflicts. Older members have been associated with a focus on financial stability and organized operations, while younger groups have been linked to more direct involvement in ongoing rivalries.

This dynamic has contributed to internal fragmentation in some areas, as well as the emergence of smaller, more aggressive subsets within the broader alliance.
