Germany Cracks Down on Hells Angels

The World

About 1,000 police officers fanned out across northern Germany Thursday in a massive raid against Hells Angels.

The move was related to an investigation concerning multiple charges against the motorcycle gang, including the search for a body.

The German government classifies the group as an organized crime syndicate.

Anchor Marco Werman speaks with Tobias Morchner, a crime reporter in Hanover.
