Playboys 13 Gang, also known by the acronym PBS13,[6][7][8] is a predominantly Mexican-American street gang founded in the Los Angeles County, California and extends to areas in South Central Los Angeles and Orange County, California. The gang also goes by the Spanish term "Conejo" which means "rabbit"[9] or Rabbit gang to identify itself. They align themselves with the prison gang known as La EME or the Mexican Mafia,[10] Because of their affiliation with La EME, while in prison, they set aside their rivalry with other Southern California gang members known as Sureños.[11]
