Dozens of burly, tattoo-covered members of the Mongol motorcycle gang were arrested by federal agents in six US states following a three-year undercover investigation in which four agents successfully infiltrated the group.

At least 38 members of the Southern California-based gang were arrested under a federal racketeering indictment that included charges of murder, attempted murder, assault, as well as gun and drug violations, said Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives spokesman Mike Hoffman.

The Mongols have often been in the news in the past over clashes with rival motorcycle gang, the Hells Angels.
