Venezuelan mobsters from the Tren de Aragua may have finally met their match among Chicago’s Southside gangs amid fears the city could go up in flames if they go to war.
The gang, referred to by federal authorities as “TdA,” has infiltrated the United States in recent years, hidden among the million Venezuelans who arrived under the Biden administration.
Best known for selling women and children into sex slavery and exploiting their own countrymen, the TdA recently made headlines in Aurora, Colorado, where armed thugs have committed shootings, assaults and taken over an apartment complex.
Even Donald Trump has taken note, having promised a visit to Aurora during the election campaign, where local authorities will brief him on the recent arrests of several gang members.
Now, it appears they’ve moved to Chicago and ex-con Tyrone Muhammad is sounding the alarm.
The dangerous Venezuelan mobsters known as the Tren de Aragua may have finally met their match in gangs on Chicago’s South Side amid fears the city could burst into flames if they break out.
Ex-convict Tyrone Muhammad (pictured left) is sounding the alarm about how the city could “be on fire” if the Aragua Train takes on Chicago’s gangs.
Muhammad, who served 20 years in state prison for murder, says native gangs, such as the Gangster Disciples, Black P Stones, Vice Lords, Latin Kings and Satan Disciples, can take up arms against TdA.
“When the black gangs here get fed up with the illegalities and criminal activities of these immigrants or non-citizens, the city of Chicago is going to go up in flames and there’s nothing the National Guard or the government can do about it when the bloodshed hits the streets. It’s going to be blacks against immigrants,” Muhammad said.
Since leaving prison, Muhammad has improved his conduct and become a leader of Ex-Cons for Community and Social Change, a group that patrols the dangerous streets of Chicago’s South Side.
He says locals are angry at how the migrant community as a whole has begun to take over the Windy City.
“It is impossible to release gang members and criminals into our country through broken borders and walls and infiltrate them into our already impoverished and broken community,” says Muhammad. The New York Post.
City taxpayers have shelled out just under $150 million in immigrant-related expenses since August 2022, city data shows.
Some of them are reportedly reaching out to members of the Tren de Aragua, and many are receiving government benefits, EBT cards, and even evicting black tenants from their apartments because the city will pay landlords more to house the immigrants.
Now in major American cities, the Tren de Aragua has unleashed a crime wave from Miami to New York, and Muhammad and local activist Terry Newsome have uncovered crimes as extreme as child pornography, drugs and sex trafficking through Freedom of Information Act requests.
One of them was even released by a Chicago judge after being detained by ICE before being involved in a jewelry robbery in Denver a month later.
In July, a commuter was brutally attacked by robbers, who strangled him unconscious and searched his pockets on Chicago’s transit system.

Many of the mobsters themselves are furious that the Aragua Train, which they consider a “terrorist group”, has been allowed in and the benefits that citizens were receiving have been taken away from it.
Muhammad is now organizing campaigns for Donald Trump and the Republican Party in the November elections, forming a group called ‘Ex-Cons for Trump’.
He wants the Democratic Party to know how fed up they are with the left using their votes to then hand out benefits to immigrants like these vicious gangsters.
“It’s not so much about Trump himself, it’s about the Democrats selling us out. Wealthy black people may like Kamala Harris, but she’s not going to do anything for us,” he said.
This comes at a time when the Aragua Train has begun to make national headlines for what it has done, primarily in the southwestern United States.
TdA has taken over at least three apartment buildings in Aurora, Colorado, exploiting and terrorizing their immigrant neighbors.
A bombshell report from a law firm representing one of the apartment management companies for assaults, death threats, extortion and even child prostitution.
In early September, the Aurora Police Department announced the arrest of 10 TdA members, despite previously denying there was a gang problem.
Aurora Mayor Mike Coffman said there are “several buildings” that have “fallen into the hands of these Venezuelan gangs” in the city.

TdA has been described as the “epitome of evil” and is best known in his home country for sex trafficking girls and women and exploiting his fellow countrymen, he has now established strongholds in Denver, New York, Miami, El Paso and Dallas, as first reported by DailyMail.com.
Since arriving in the United States, TdA is accused of participating in shootings, extortions of other immigrants who were told to pay rent to the gang instead of property, beatings and robberies in Colorado.
Federal authorities have been shocked and surprised by how quickly TdA has been able to establish itself and eclipse previous operations carried out by gangs like MS-13.
In July, the federal government designated TdA as a transnational criminal organization, or TCO, placing them among the worst Mexican drug cartels and terrorist organizations in the world.
For now, TdA seems focused on victimizing migrants, using migrant women as prostitutes, but it is only a matter of time before its tentacles spread.
As reported exclusively by DailyMail.com, TdA has established its new headquarters just across the border from El Paso, in Juarez, Mexico.
El Paso officials, who asked to remain anonymous, now fear gang violence could spread to Texas’ sixth-largest city, which is currently ranked among the top ten safest in the United States by the FBI.
Trump has taken note of the gang and has promised to visit Aurora soon to discuss the problem and explain his plans to stem the US crisis at the border.
“The Aragua Train is the epitome of evil,” said Congressman Tony Gonzales, who represents El Paso.
‘This gang is known for raping children, leading murders and causing widespread chaos.’
El Paso authorities are currently working on a confidential plan to address the growing threat, confidential sources told DailyMail.com
But Mexican authorities have been willing to speak more openly about TdA’s troubling arrival in Juarez.
The presence of the Venezuelan mafia in Mexico has caused panic among migrants, many of whom are fleeing the same violence that TdA created in their homeland.
