Injured Hells Angel linked to number of gangs

Injured Hells Angel linked to number of gangs - image

A Hells Angel injured in the same shootout that left notorious gangster Jonathan Bacon dead Sunday has ties to members and associates of a number of Lower Mainland gangs.

Larry Ronald Amero, born in 1977, is a full-patch member of the White Rock chapter of the Hells Angels.

Amero leases three vehicles: a 2006 BMW M5, a 2007 Cadillac Escalade and a 2008 Chevrolet Silverado. The Escalade is a shared lease with his former live-in girlfriend, Sarah Trebble.

Trebble, a West Vancouver realtor, was acquitted this year of a charge of occupying a vehicle in which there was a firearm. The charge was laid after Trebble was found in a car involved in a shooting outside of the T-Barz strip club in Surrey in 2009. Police have alleged that Trebble is a known associate of high-ranking United Nations Gang member Barzan Tilli-Cholli.

Amero has also been photographed with one of the founders of the Independent Soldiers gang, Randy Naicker. Naicker was convicted of a drug-related kidnapping and extortion and was also the intended target of a shooting at a Vancouver halfway house. Another gangster – Raj Soomel – was killed instead.

Naicker and another Independent Soldier met with members of the Red Scorpions in 2006, reports state.

In December 2002, Amero was given a one-year conditional sentence followed by a year of probation after being found guilty of possession for the purpose of trafficking and production of a controlled substance.

The address associated with two of Amero’s vehicle leases is a $1.13 million Surrey property owned by a Ronald Amero.

Amero was in critical condition on Sunday. An update on his condition was not available Monday.
