‘Evil’ Illegal Migrant Gang Seizes Another Four Apartment Complexes in San Antonio, Texas

Venezuelan migrant gang ‘Tren de Aragua’ has now taken over at least four apartment complexes in San Antonio, Texas. But don’t worry – the media insists it’s not every apartment building in America so it doesn’t count.

NEW: JD Vance torches ABC’s Martha Raddatz after she minimized the illegal immigrant gang takeovers because “only a handful” of apartments complexes have been seized.

A dangerous Venezuelan gang has taken over at least four apartment complexes in San Antonio, Texas, as it expands its reach in yet another America city, DailyMail.com can reveal.

Dubbed the ‘epitome of evil’, Tren de Aragua (TdA) is known to run drug smuggling, child prostitution and human trafficking rings in South America, with its members crossing over into the US in recent years amid a wave of Venezuelan migrants.

The tattooed mobsters have since unleashed a wave of crime across the country from Miami and Texas to Denver and New York.

The gang’s activities in the American cities are back in the spotlight after ABC News’ Martha Raddatz claimed the instances of gang members’ presence in apartments was limited to a ‘handful’ of complexes in Aurora, Colorado.

Just last week a small army of police officers raided an apartment complex in San Antonio and arrested 19 individuals – including four gang members.

Law enforcement sources confirmed TdA had been operating at the Palatia Apartments for five to six months – squatting in empty units they either rented out to other migrants, used as a base to deal cocaine or, most horrifically, as prostitution dens to pimp out women and children.

But now DailyMail.com can reveal that this apartment invasion is just the tip of the iceberg in the major southern Texas city, with at least three other rental properties also occupied by the criminal organization.

Tren de Aragua had been operating at the Palatia Apartment Homes near the city’s airport for a few months, before hundreds of officers raided the property Oct. 5, according to the San Antonio Police Department

Mountains of trash were left behind after the raid, including dozens of sofas and mattresses that had been cleared out of the apartments where gang members were forcing people into prostitution
DailyMail.com is not naming the three other apartment complexes to avoid jeopardizing ongoing police investigations.

However, the locations were confirmed by law enforcement sources, and we spent days visiting the sites where we spoke to terrified residents.

The rise of Tren de Aragua in America

In a pre-dawn operation, hundreds of law enforcement officers closed in on the sprawling Palatia Apartments in the early hours of October 5 after spending weeks investigating reports that Tren de Aragua had control of the area.

Neighbors recounted how they awoke to the sound of helicopters, drones, and doors being kicked in at around 5 a.m.

‘Every department was here. They were wearing helmets and body armor,’ said one female resident who asked to remain anonymous.
