Pagan's MC members arrested after bar fight

Key West, Florida, USA (March 5, 2024) - Four Florida Keys men were arrested March 2 after a fight on Big Pine Key that started over a T-shirt, according to the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office. The scuffle happened at the Boardwalk Bar and Grill on Big Pine. Three of the men arrested belong to the Pagan’s Motorcycle Club, the sheriff’s office said in a statement.
 

Arrested was Derek Queen of Key West, Anthony Eliopulos of Ramrod Key and David Mirth of Big Pine. The arrests came after deputies said Jeffrey Jones, of Key West, was at the restaurant’s bar wearing a black T-shirt with white lettering that reads, “Support Your Local Outlaws.” Three Pagan's MC members showed up and proceeded to forcibly walk Jones outside the restaurant and hold him against his will.



No one connected with the fight, even the restaurant’s management, wanted to cooperate with law enforcement. The alleged victim, Jones, repeatedly tried to leave the scene despite deputies warning him to stay put. After 11 warnings from deputies, Jones tried once more to leave. Deputies put him in handcuffs and arrested on a charge of obstructing a criminal investigation.

All four were still locked up at the county jail on Stock Island the day after the fight. But Jones was released in the afternoon without having to post bond. The Pagan’s MC members each have bonds set at $150,000.



MCSO detectives had to reach out for help from the Drug Enforcement Administration to view the restaurant’s security video because they said the management refused to hand it over. So detectives obtained a federal subpoena for the video and that prompted management to release it.

Hells Angels MC member in custody after bar fight

Cedar Lake, Indiana, USA (February 18, 2024) - An Indianapolis, Indiana man is locked up in jail after fleeing a Cedar Lake bar and resisting arrest on Valentine’s Day. Cedar Lake Police were called to Town Club Tavern on Lake Shore Drive, for a man fighting with other customers.
 


When they arrived, witnesses said the man, Timothy Berry, started arguing with them after bragging he’s with the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club. While verbally arguing with the patrons, Berry started throwing barstools and then pulled out the hair of one patron.



Berry left, then returned with a snow shovel and swung it at the same customers before fleeing the bar, leaving behind a tennis shoe and his debit card. Officers later found Berry at a residence in the 13000 block of Fulton Street, where he refused to leave. 

A juvenile then ran from the residence to the officers, who confirmed Berry was the only other person inside. Northwest Regional SWAT was notified, and negotiators convinced Berry to leave without incident, Fishers said. Berry was transported to the Lake County Jail, where he is being held on charges.

HAMC members charged in murder conspiracy

Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA (January 29, 2024) - The U.S. Justice Department announced charges Monday against an Iranian national and two Canadians, including members of the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club, for allegedly plotting to assassinate an Iranian defector living in Maryland.
 


The indictment unsealed in federal court in Minnesota is at least the third Iran-based murder-for-hire plot prosecuted by the Justice Department since 2022. The targets in the previous cases were former U.S. national security adviser John Bolton and a New York-based Iranian-American journalist.



Prosecutors say the latest alleged plot was orchestrated by an Iranian national, Naji Sharifi Zindashti, but the indictment does not accuse the Iranian government of directing the scheme.
