Hells Angels reportedly heading to Aurora, Colorado to confront Venezuelan gang

Rumors are circulating on social media that members of the notorious Hells Angels Motorcycle Club (HAMC) are allegedly heading to Aurora, Colorado, to confront Venezuelan gangs. 

This speculation follows the release of a surveillance video showing armed men purportedly taking control of an apartment building in the city. Aurora police have confirmed they are investigating gang activity, particularly at the Edge at the Lowry apartment complex, which is reportedly troubled by the Venezuelan gang, Tren de Aragua (TdA).

Tren de Aragua is the largest criminal organization in Venezuela, boasting over 5,000 members. The gang is led by Héctor Rusthenford Guerrero Flores, also known as "Niño Guerrero," who operated from Tocorón prison, which served as the gang's de facto headquarters. Amid the Venezuelan refugee crisis, Tren de Aragua has expanded its operations throughout Latin America and the United States, following the migration of Venezuelans to various host nations.

The Hells Angels, with over 6,000 members and 467 charters in 59 countries, are the largest "outlaw" motorcycle club in the world, known for their distinctive Harley-Davidson motorcycles and commonly referred to as "H.A.," "Red & White," "HAMC," and "81."

Numerous social media users have shared videos claiming the Hells Angels are en route to Aurora. One user on X (formerly known as Twitter) stated, "I have seen multiple videos in the last 10 minutes showing the Hells Angels heading to Colorado, to Aurora. This is gonna be interesting. I've seen footage of it."

Despite the widespread rumors, many are skeptical, dismissing the claims as “fake news.” Critics argue that it’s implausible for the Hells Angels to publicly announce such actions. 

Some social media users have mocked the idea, likening it to a comic book scenario where the Hells Angels are "assembling like the Avengers" to take on foreign gangs. 

The police department has not confirmed these reports, leaving the truth behind the rumors uncertain.
