WASHINGTON (7News) — Alleged members of a violent gang that originated in Venezuela have operated in the D.C. area, WJLA confirmed

The gang is called TdA, or Tren de Aragua. It originated in the Venezuelan state of Aragua, where it operated out of a prison that it allegedly ran for years, to the point where it was able to install restaurants and a swimming pool inside the prison gates. Some consider the gang more powerful than the police in Venezuela.
