The Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua has now spread to one of the
most remote states in America, after an alleged member was arrested for
felony theft last month.
Local authorities in West Fargo, North Dakota, arrested suspected gang
member Henry Theis, 25, in early November, according to the Cass County
Jail roster.
The violent gang, which made national headlines in 2023 after reports of members of the group holding an apartment building hostage in Aurora,
Colorado, has now expanded its territory to more than a dozen U.S. states.

"Tren de Aragua now has a presence in 17 states." Congressman Troy E.
Nehls, R-Texas, posted on X. "I look forward to working with President
Trump to secure our border and restore safety in our communities."
West Fargo has a population of less than 40,000, and North Dakota itself
is one of the least-populated states in the country, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
The origins of Tren de Aragua, which means "Train from Aragua," have been traced to a Venezuelan prison more than a decade ago.

WARNED OF TREN DE ARAGUA RESURGENCE
Police originally pulled over Theis for driving without his headlights on,
but they soon discovered more than $24,000 in cash he allegedly stole from
a nearby bank, a facemask, a latex glove, cables and a computer keyboard
during a search of his car, according to KXLG.
Theis admitted to being part of an organization of hackers who were "jackpotting" ATMs, using a virus to steal money, court documents
revealed, according to the outlet.
Two other suspects were arrested, bringing the total theft amount to
almost $100,000. Theis provided names of the other individuals involved, including Jefferson Rodriguez-Quintero and Ryber Sanchez, who were also arrested, the local outlet reported.
Another Venezuelan national, suspected of being a member of the Tren de
Aragua gang, was recently arrested near President-elect TrumpÆs Mar-a-Lago residence in Palm Beach, Florida.
"U.S. Border Patrol agents arrested a Venezuelan national who was
identified as a Tren de Aragua gang member," Jeffrey Dinise, the chief
patrol agent of the U.S. Border Patrol's Miami Sector, wrote on X on
Tuesday.

Violent crimes by Tren de Aragua members have spread across the nation and
have been linked to the high-profile murders of nursing student Laken
Riley in Georgia and 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray in Houston.
In addition to North Dakota, the gang has a presence in Colorado, Texas, California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Louisiana, Nevada, New York, New Jersey, North Carolina, Tennessee and Wisconsin, and most recently in
Virginia, Montana and Wyoming, according to a New York Post report that
cites a Homeland Security memo.
