New Brunswick RCMP say they have arrested four men as part of an ongoing investigation into outlaw motorcycle club activities.
Police say the arrests were made in Edmundston, Drummond, California Settlement and Moncton between Feb. 17 and Apr. 9.
“The arrests are in relation to organized crime, drugs and proceeds of crime, or money laundering,” said the RCMP in a news release Thursday.
They said the arrested individuals include:
- a 34-year-old “prospect” for the Red Devils Motorcycle Club.
- a 29-year-old “full-patch” member of the Red Devils Motorcycle Club.
- a 46-year-old “prospect” for the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club.
- a 42-year-old “full-patch” member of the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club Nomads N.B.
“The Red Devils are a support club for the Hells Angels, and operate under their direction,” says Insp. Ron Desilva of the New Brunswick RCMP’s Federal Serious and Organized Crime Unit. “The Hells Angels are involved in the drug trade in New Brunswick, bringing harmful elements into our communities.”
All four were released from custody pending future court appearances. The RCMP said their investigation is ongoing.
