U.S. authorities say they have arrested several suspected members of
the Armenian criminal network believed to have worked with inmates
to orchestrate a riot at a Los Angeles County jail, Associated Press
reports.
Sheriff~Rs spokesman Steve Whitmore told The Associated Press that
about a half-dozen suspects of the Armenian criminal group were
arrested on Wednesday.
According to him, the gang is increasingly teaming up with the Mexican
Mafia, a prison-based Latino gang that also controls gang activity
on the streets, the source says.
Several inmates were injured in Aug. 22 riot at a Castaic facility
north of Los Angeles, which resulted in $250,000 in damage.
