Update: 2025-11-20
Description
A lifetime Black Power member is warning of a larger threat on the anniversary of the gang patch ban.
Today marks one year since the law was changed to give Police increased powers to go after gangs, including banning gang insignia in public.
Since then, officers have seized 182 patches, more than 600 insignia items, and 178 firearms.
But Community Advocate Denis O'Reilly told Ryan Bridge international cartels are becoming increasingly involved in gang activity.
He says they will recruit young gang members with promises of wealth and riches.
