Police Raid Dismantles Fierce Protection Gang Operating Across Northern San Andreas By Tyler Hawthorne | Los Santos Times | October 5, 2025 The Los Santos Police Department’s Major Crimes Division has successfully taken down a violent extortion ring from the rural community of Tierra Robada that had been demanding “protection fees” from construction sites and small businesses across northern San Andreas. For several months, detectives from the LSPD’s northern branch conducted a covert investigation into the gang, whose members were allegedly involved in a string of intimidation campaigns and protection rackets stretching from Montgomery to Blueberry. Last month, investigators followed several gang members who left Tierra Robada in two vehicles — a black Sentinel and a white Boxville van — heading toward the Flint County region. Officers discreetly tailed the suspects until they reached a remote open area near Fort Carson. According to police, once there, the suspects unloaded an ATV from the van and drove toward a construction site on the outskirts of Las Venturas. The trio reportedly broke into the fenced compound, vandalized heavy equipment, and stole critical engine parts and tools. After the heist, the gang buried the stolen items in the desert outside Fort Carson, intending to later extort the site’s owner by offering to “help recover” the missing materials — for a hefty fee. When the suspects began returning toward Tierra Robada, detectives coordinated with tactical units for an ambush. Near the Montgomery Intersection, a command drone gave the signal, and LSPD task forces surrounded both vehicles in a swift and precise operation. Three suspects — aged 21, 22, and 31 — were arrested without resistance. Further investigation revealed that days before the raid, a man “appearing to be from the desert region” approached the construction foreman, offering paid “security services” to protect the site. When the offer was declined, the site was attacked shortly thereafter. Detectives believe this was part of a systematic effort to pressure business owners into paying for protection. The Los Santos County District Attorney’s Office announced today that formal indictments will be filed against the five suspects for extortion, criminal damage, and grand theft. Authorities say the operation marks a significant victory in the fight against organized crime networks preying on local businesses across San Andreas, particularly in Blaine County and northern Los Santos. “We’re sending a clear message — intimidation and extortion will not go unanswered,” said Detective Marcus Hall of the LSPD Major Crimes Division. “No one is above the law, no matter how remote their operations are.”
