The Pueblo Bishops Gang is a Bloods gang located in South East Los Angeles within the LAPD's Newton Division and is headquartered in the Pueblo Del Rio housing project but claim much of the surrounding area as their turf as well. Their territory lies between Slauson Avenue in the South to 50th Street in the North and between Alameda Street in the East and Compton Avenue in the West. The East Side (E/S) 52 Pueblo Bishops are their main click, indicating that this gang controls E 52 street and that the territory they control is within the Pueblo Del Rio housing project. Although the Pueblo Bishops are Bloods, they rival the Blood Stone Villians and have been considered mortal enemies since a Pueblo gang member killed a Bloodstone Villains gang member execution-style over a bad narcotics transaction in 1998. The E/S PBB are also rivals of the Avalon Gangster Crips (although they currently have an unofficial truce with the Pueblo Bishops), 48 Gangster Crips, E/S 42 Gangster Crips, E/S 43 Gangster Crips and the 6 Pacc East Coast Crips. Police estimate The Pueblo Bishop gang had 200 members and its primary activities included drug sales, robberies and shootings.

Some Notes:

1: They are a part of the Bishop Alliance:

52 Pueblo Bishops Bloods
9 Duece Watts Bishops located on 92nd Street and 88th Street.
93 Be-Bopp Watts Bishops located on 92nd Street and 93rd Street.

2: They have an unofficial alliance with the 53 Avalon Gangster Crips against the Blood Stone Villians.

3: Their alliance with the Avalon Gangster Crips are frowned upon throughout the Blood community in Los Angeles. Most Bloods find Blood-Crip alliances acceptable so long as the alliances are made to battle other Crips, and not fellow Bloods. Due to this fact, they have lost some allies.
