In the past few months law enforcement agencies have stepped up action against outlaw motorcycle clubs.
• On July 2 2025, authorities arrested 28 members of the Mongols Motorcycle Club on rioting charges after a March 8 brawl at Daytona Bike Week between Mongols and Warlocks members. Police executed search warrants on the Mongols’ clubhouse and homes and described the group as a domestic terroristic gang.
• Four Mongols members were transported to Volusia County on July 8 2025 to face charges from the same brawl. Dubbed “Operation Mongolian Beef,” the multi‑agency investigation charged them with aggravated rioting and attempted first‑degree murder.
• Additional arrests followed on July 11 2025, when WFTV reported that law‑enforcement teams swept up more suspects in the Daytona Bike Week case during a multi‑agency raid.
• The Calgary Police Service issued a July 16 2025 notice warning that members of the Hells Angels and other outlaw motorcycle clubs planned to gather in Calgary. Police said they would monitor the event and enforce laws, although they did not expect a heightened risk to the public.
• Also on July 16 2025, the FBI raided two buildings associated with the Wheels of Soul Motorcycle Club in Philadelphia. The raid was part of a multi‑state investigation into an April 13 fight outside a Virginia bar where club members reportedly removed a victim from the bar and exchanged gunfire with a 41‑year‑old who tried to intervene.
• In May 2025 the U.S. Department of Justice announced that three members of the Pagan’s Motorcycle Club pleaded guilty to violent attacks on rivals, including one incident where a victim was beaten and shot multiple times. The defendants face lengthy federal prison sentences. A separate case reported May 20 by KCTV5 said Jeremiah Hahn, a Pagan’s member, admitted to using an axe handle in a 2022 assault and conspiring to “catch a stray” rival; he faces up to 20 years in prison.
The collected articles may reference motorcycle “gangs,” a term used by news sources but not endorsed or condoned by us.
