Three others — Clifford Mohan, Jason Walker, and Kuroon Mohammed — are linked to stealing and supplying vehicles for gang violence and drug trafficking. Shawn Edwards from Ste. Madeleine is an armed lookout for a major drug block, tied to narcotics distribution. Meanwhile, fugitive Daren Gumbs — a reputed gang leader and alleged firearm/drug offender — was caught at a water park by off-duty officers and handed over to Maloney police.
