3 possible gang members arrested in Broward over link to nearly 30 burglaries, police say
Two teenagers and a 21-year-old believed to be part of a criminal organization have been arrested in connection with nearly 30 home burglaries in South Florida, Hollywood police announced Tuesday.
Tremaine Raekwon Hill, 18, Tyrek Davontae Williams, 19 and Zion Odain Denvor Hall, 21, were arrested Friday during a multi-agency operation in Broward County, according to Hollywood police.
The operation, which involved executing three arrest warrants and search warrants simultaneously, led detectives to seize guns and ammunition, a stolen vehicle and more than $150,000, police said.
Investigators also found blank checks, fraudulent debit and credit cards, cellphones, iPads, jewelry and designer handbags.
Hollywood police spokesman Christian Lata says it was determined during the long-term investigation that Williams, Hill and Hall were involved in the burglaries and that they “committed these crimes while already on pre-trial release for previous crimes and while wearing court ordered GPS ankle monitors.”
The three men are also believed to be part of a criminal organization known to commit armed burglaries and fraud in South Florida, Lata said. All three are being held without bond at Broward County Jail.
The Attorney General’s Office, the Broward County Sheriff’s Office and Margate police also assisted Hollywood police in Friday’s operation.
“This investigation is still ongoing and may lead to additional charges and arrests,” Lata said.
