The FBI is monitoring the situation and working with local authorities to combat this criminal group, informed NY Journal.
Venezuelan authorities have not confirmed information about Nino Guerrero’s presence in the United States. However, journalist Ronna Risquez, author of the book “El Train de Aragua: The Gang That Revolutionized Organized Crime in Latin America.” He claims that there is no official information about his whereabouts since he fled.
