As first reported, new details have emerged about the drive-by shooting of a Hell’s Angel last night which resulted in the death of the victim. Originally thought to be riding a Harley in a pack of Angels heading north on Highway 101, the victim was actually riding in a white Chevrolet pickup truck that was leading the pack north.
Bikers have been known to use a war wagon that carries bike parts, “supplies”, and other equipment that the bikers do not have room to carry or do not want to carry on their person or bike.
Speculation circulating today is that the shooter(s) were traveling in a red SUV and that the SUV may have “damage to it’s windows” according to CHP authorities.
The Next Move?
Worse yet is the fact that these types of open executions are often followed by retaliation and the spark that ignites a full scale biker war. Northern California long the stronghold of the Hell’s Angels, has been invaded recently by the Angel’s most hated enemy the Mongols. The Mongols were the Angel’s adversary in the now legendary Laughlin, Nevada casino mayhem that included shooting and stabbing victims.
There was a funeral in SF yesterday. J.R. Serrano. Any connection?

Bob,
Hard to say. I am no insider to any of this mess. The idea I am positing is simply common sense. The only other explanation, I can think of outside of the murder being a rival biker gang hit, is an internal beef where someone went off without any authority.
