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

Rumors are circulating on social media that members of the infamous Hells Angels Motorcycle Club (HAMC) are traveling to Aurora, Colorado to battle Venezuelan gangs.

The speculation follows the release of surveillance video that allegedly shows gunmen taking control of an apartment building in the city. Aurora police have confirmed that they are investigating gang activity, specifically at the Edge at the Lowry apartment complex, which is reportedly plagued by the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua (TdA).

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

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

Numerous social media users have shared videos claiming that the Hells Angels are en route to Aurora. One user on X (formerly known as Twitter) said: “I’ve seen multiple videos in the last 10 minutes of the Hells Angels heading to Colorado, heading to Aurora. This is going to be interesting. I’ve seen footage of it.”

Despite the widespread rumors, many are skeptical and dismiss the claims as “fake news.” Critics argue that it is unlikely that the Hells Angels would publicly announce such actions.

Some social media users have ridiculed the idea, comparing it to a comic book scenario in which the Hells Angels “assemble like the Avengers” to take on foreign gangs.

Police have not confirmed these reports. The truth behind the rumors remains uncertain.
