NJ Gang Bust

 Excerpts
A massive gang bust in New Jersey led to the arrest of 166 people – 61 of whom belong to some of the most notorious crime organizations in America – in "Operation Summer In The City."
The U.S. Marshals Service and NJ Attorney General's Office directed the multi-agency collaboration – which included U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement, or ICE – that targeted gang members and the most violent offenders in four New Jersey communities.
The operation intended to have "a direct impact on the quality of life for the residents of these communities," according to a release from the Office of Attorney General.

This one-week initiative during July resulted in the arrest of 166 fugitives, which included 42 Bloods, 13 Crips, 3 Latin Kings, 1 Surenos and 1 Trinitarios member, according to the Office of Attorney General.
Operation Summer in the City was conducted throughout Newark, Trenton, Jersey City and Camden from July 16 through July 20. The objective was to strategically target the state's most dangerous fugitives in order to curb the violence in these cities, according to the OAG.

 Not only were some of New Jersey's most violent offenders apprehended during this operation, but law enforcement also seized guns, drugs, and money. Of these notable seizures, 11 firearms, 7.15 kilograms in narcotics, one vehicle, and $100,000 in cash were confiscated, according to the OAG.
