The Vice-President of the Kelowna Hells Angels faces charges along with three others after a 20-month investigation  that stretched to Panama and Mexico and also involved a search of five locations in BC.

David Giles was arrested Saturday at a Burnaby casino and is charged with conspiracy to import and traffic 500 kilograms of cocaine, along with three other members of the Hells Angels.

Superintendent Brian Cantera says the investigation dubbed "E-Predicate" resulted in the seizure of four-million-dollars in alleged drug money and weapons.

RCMP say they've taken out some of the highest levels of the Hells Angels and anybody involved in organized crime should be worried.

    Great job but just beware that the leadership is up for grabs and divisions between the gang will fight for it, most times ruthlessly.

    A lot of the violence in Mexico comes from splitting up the big cartels and is an ongoing fight within the smaller groups with firepower that sometimes the police can't match...

    You would think that the HA would just join the liebrals at least they have a chance to lead guilty and still get a bonus plus have their court costs covered.

    Although I do believe that the HA have more pride and morals than crissy and crew.
