The
police continue to keep an eye on the Bacchus Motorcycle Gang. City
Police Chief Bill Reid says they have been watching them, so it's no
surprise there have been arrests made. He tells CHSJ News, make no mistake, they are a criminal organization.
Back in August,The president of the group and six others were arrested following a six-month investigation by four local police agencies.
"They
will do things that will make you think they're just people that
enjoy bikes," says Reid, "but at the end of
the day the reason they're together is for criminal activity. We know
that and we're well aware of it."
44-year-old
Brian Schofield of Public Landing, president of the group, recently
plead guilty in court to two counts of possession for the purpose of
trafficking.
