Quebec police have successfully dismantled a vehicle theft ring with ties to the Hells Angels motorcycle gang, seizing 21 vehicles in a coordinated operation. The investigation, which involved multiple law enforcement agencies, targeted a network that allegedly stole high-end vehicles and shipped them overseas for profit.
Operation Details
According to police officials, the ring operated primarily in the Montreal area and used sophisticated methods to steal vehicles, including reprogramming key fobs and cloning license plates. The stolen cars, valued at over $2 million, were destined for markets in Africa and the Middle East.
Arrests and Charges
Several suspects were arrested during the operation, facing charges of theft, trafficking, and conspiracy. Police also seized tools used for vehicle theft, including electronic devices and fake documents.
Authorities emphasized that this dismantling sends a strong message to organized crime networks. The investigation is ongoing, and further arrests are expected.
