Migrant Gang Member Accused of Shooting 2 NYPD Officers in Queens

A migrant accused of shooting two NYPD officers is suspected of being a member of the violent Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua. Bernardo Castro Mata, 19, who entered the US illegally and had his asylum case dismissed, was living in a Queens migrant shelter before the incident. Authorities believe such shelters are becoming breeding grounds for gang culture. Mata, identified by a gang-related tattoo, is also a suspect in multiple violent robberies. The gang is notorious for its cruelty and criminal activities, including drug-dealing and human trafficking.
