Hatchet-wielding, hard-partying migrants take over Texas hotel – turning it into haven for notorious gang | 10 Sept 2024 | The violent Venezuelan migrant gang Tren de Aragua has taken over a hotel in the Texas border city of El Paso – turning into a hub of fighting, drinking and hard-partying behavior, authorities say. The cops have been called nearly 700 times to the Gateway hotel. Surveillance footage shows one man wielding a hatchet, others were spotted with knives and at least one man was seen firing a gun inside, the El Paso County Attorney said. Much of this activity happened while children were present.
