If you haven’t been following the chaos that’s been happening in Waco, Texas, just know that biker gangs have become a lot more maniacal ever since “Sons Of Anarchy” ended. After the deadly shootout at a Twin Peaks restaurant last Sunday, at least 170 members of biker gangs like the Bandidos and the Black Widows were arrested. While most of them are still custody, police have received tips that neighboring “brothers” of the gangs are flocking to North Texas and might be heavily armed. Find out more after the jump!
The state of Texas is looking deeper into new threats against local police in Texas not long after the deadly shooting in Waco. The Texas Department of Public Safety issued a bulletin that said members of the Bandidos who are in the military “are supplying the gang with grenades and C4 explosives.” According to CNN, the biker gangs are targeting high-ranking police officers and plan to use car bombs.
The bulletin also said that a hit has been placed on Texas state troopers. They plan on attacking by running over officers at traffic stops, using grenades and Molotov cocktails, and firearms. The rogue biker gangs are supposedly planning to hit areas in Austin, El Paso, Dallas, Corpus Christi, Houston, and McLennan County Jail in Waco.
“They are of the strong belief that trouble is not over with,” said Sheriff Sheriff Ira Mercer of Palo Pinto County. “We have other intel that other bikers groups might be coming here to show us they can.”
The retaliation stems from the shooting at the Twin Peaks restaurant where the bikers claim the police shot “their brothers.” Waco Police Sgt. W. Patrick Swanton claims that three or four police officers opened fire but it’s too early to tell which officer’s bullet hit each suspect. Stay tuned for more updates.
