Hulk, Ponch join Carson 'Community Night Out'
Two of the greatest crime fighters in history (the 70s at least) will be joining forces with Carson residents to take back the city's streets.
Sorry Eric Bana and Edward Norton, but the real Incredible Hulk -- Lou Ferrigno -- will be in
Carson Wednesday night along with Officer Frank Poncherello for the "Community Night Out, March and Rally Against Crime and Violence."
Poncherello, of course, is Erik Estrada, who is expected to ride in on a CHP motorcycle.
Ferrigno is a sheriff's deputy reserve officer.
Both are lending their support to the fourth march of its kind.
Carson sheriff's Capt. Todd Rogers said the city was unable to join in last week's National Night Out because of the conflicting council meeting, so leaders scheduled the event for tonight.
Deputies will conduct station tours, and display law enforcement equipment beginning at 6:30 p.m. at the Carson Sheriff's Station, 21356 S. Avalon Blvd.
The march begins at 7:15 p.m.
"It's our outreach to the community," Rogers said. "We can do a much better job if we are all working together."
City officials, clergy and local entertainers will take part. About 300 people are expected.
"Everybody is coming together," Rogers said.
