Members of a violent Hispanic street gang killed at least three people in south Nashville, shot several more and met often to plan more attacks on rival gangs, according to a federal indictment announced Wednesday.
Thirteen members of the MS-13 gang could face life sentences for the crimes, including a shooting at a Gallatin Pike nightclub and the gunning down of two teenagers on Nolensville Road
District of Tennessee, said the gang members also collected dues to support fellow gang members jailed throughout the United States and Latin America, said.
A monthslong investigation found that members of the small Nashville chapter of the MS-13, many of them in the country illegally, don't seem to be involved in drugs or criminal acts beyond violence, Morford said.http://www.tennessean.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070111/NEWS03/701110384/1001
