It’s being reported by the Daily Mail that the violent Venezuelan gang known as Tren de Aguas has taken over a motel in El Paso, Texas and law enforcement officials are working with the city to try and shut the motel down.
The owner of the motel has allowed this to continue and that’s why police want it shut down.

Officials in El Paso, Texas are trying to shut down a motel in downtown after they say it has become a crime den controlled by Venezuelan super gang, Tren de Aragua, with police responding to the property nearly 700 times in the last two years.
The vicious South American gang– best known for selling women and children into sex slavery and exploiting its own countrymen– most recently made headlines in Aurora, Colorado, where armed thugs were seen storming an apartment complex residents say they have taken control of.
In a lawsuit filed by the El Paso County Attorney alleges Gateway Hotel owner Howard Yun is not trying ‘to control the conduct of the guests and is negligently allowing gang activity to infiltrate the area.’
Scenes of drug use, violence, and sexual activity happen within view of children, the suit states, with much of it happening in hallway parties.
While some of the crime goes back two years, the lawsuit alleges the situation has gotten worse since the ‘introduction of the Tren de Aragua organization into the hotel.’
The El Paso County Attorney detailed a long list of crimes police have investigated at the Gateway Hotel, including 11 drug cases, 10 aggravated assaults, 20 disorderly conduct calls, 13 fights, two terroristic threats and one case of indecency with a child, according to KFOX-TV.
The documents also describe TdA gang members beating up other migrants who live in the hotel or stealing their immigration papers.
Offering low daily rates, the hotel attracts migrants.
The previous owner was convicted for running a human smuggling ring for Asian migrants out of the same property, the suit states.
Local officials additionally claim the hotel is operating without a license is and seeking to close the property down since it has become a ‘habitual crime property.’
As DailyMail.com exclusively reported, TdA has set up its new headquarters just across the border from El Paso, in Juarez Mexico.
El Paso officials, who asked to remain anonymous, now fear gang violence will spill over into Texas’ sixth largest city – which is currently ranked among the top ten safest in America by the FBI.
‘Tren de Aragua is the epitome of evil,’ Congressman Tony Gonzales, who represents El Paso, said.
‘This gang is known to rape children, spearhead murders, and cause widespread chaos.’
Law enforcement in El Paso is currently working on a confidential plan to address the growing threat, insiders told DailyMail.com.
All of this violence and sex slavery brought to you by Joe and Kamala! Aren’t they the best!
