The Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua has now spread to one of the most remote states in America, after an alleged member was arrested for felony theft last month.
Local authorities in West Fargo, North Dakota, arrested suspected gang member Henry Theis, 25, in early November, according to the Cass County Jail roster. The violent gang, which made national headlines in 2023 after reports of members of the group holding an apartment building hostage in Aurora, Colorado, has now expanded its territory to more than a dozen U.S. states.
Theis admitted to being part of an organization of hackers who were 'jackpotting' ATMs, using a virus to steal money, court documents revealed, according to the outlet. EX-ICE OFFICIAL WARNS TREN DE ARAGUA HAS GROWN FASTER INSIDE US THAN MURDEROUS RIVAL GANG: ‘PUT THEM OUT NOW’ Two other suspects were arrested, bringing the total theft amount to almost $100,000.
