The Mansfield Gangster Crips are an African American street gang from a neighborhood in West Los Angeles in the West Pico Blvd and South LaBrea Avenue area. They initially started out as a group of teens around 1981 as the MansField Hustlers (MFH). Although their earlier identity was not Crip, they where heavily influenced by Tray affiliated neighborhoods such as the Play Boy Gangster Crips and Marvin Gangster Crips. The early members attended John Burroughs Junior High School (now John Burroughs Middle School) and by 1988 they dropped the "Hustler" label. The first person from this neighborhood to die in gang conflict was Charles "Chucky" Patterson, who was stabbed to death on Olympic and La Brea Avenue at the Winchell's Donut shop on September 27, 1984 by a member of the School Yard Crips (who have been considered rivals ever since). They are also considered rivals of the 18th Street gang, the Black P Stones, Rollin 20s NeighborHood Blood gang and all Neighbor Hood Crips within their immediate vicinity. Rapper Roderick Burton aka Dolla was originally from this neighborhood.
