LAS VEGAS, Nev. (FOX5) – The Nevada Supreme Court ruled Thursday that the Hells Angels motorcycle club is a “criminal gang” under state law.
The ruling stems from a freeway shooting back in 2022.
It now allows a Clark County District Court case involving the shooting to move forward.
In May 2022, police say a shooting on the I-11 in Henderson was between the Hells Angels and a rival gang, the Vagos. Seven people were injured.
Prosecutors have said the shooting may have been in retaliation for a previous murder in California involving the two groups.
