A whole chapter of the notorious Hells Angels in California has been arrested in a crackdown on the infamous outlaw biker gang.
Six members, including the president and vice president of a group based in Bakersfield, were nabbed following an investigation by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), the Kern County Sheriff’s Office and the California Highway Patrol, authorities announced on Facebook. Bakersfield is more than 100 miles north of downtown Los Angeles.
They face a slew of charges, including kidnapping, robbery, criminal threats, false imprisonment, assault with a firearm, participation in a criminal street gang, criminal conspiracy, intimidating a witness or victim and elder abuse.
