Venezuelan Prison Gangs Are Becoming a Problem in Another American City

The violent Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua is clashing with gangs in Chicago, according to a report from the New York Post. 

Townhall previously covered how Tren de Aragua members have crossed the southern border illegally and taken over American towns and cities. On city in particular, Aurora, Colorado, has had apartment complexes taken over by the gang. 

The Post noted that Venezuelan criminal gangs have flooded shelters and taken over apartment buildings in Chicago’s South Side. 

"When the black gangs here get fed up with the illegalities and criminal activities of these migrants or non-citizens, the city of Chicago is going to go up in flames and there will be nothing the National Guard or the government can do about it when the bloodshed hits the streets. It’ll be blacks against migrants," Tyrone Muhammad, a former Chicago gangster who did 20 years in prison and now runs a violence prevention program, told the Post in an interview.
