An incident involving an illegal immigrant from Venezuela with suspected ties to the Tren de Aragua gang has recently come to light in New York City. The 25-year-old suspect, identified as Brandon Simosa, was arrested outside a migrant shelter after allegedly breaking into a Manhattan prosecutor's apartment and committing various offenses.
According to the NYPD, Simosa followed a 38-year-old woman into her apartment building in Manhattan during the early hours of Sunday. Once inside, he demanded cash, stole credit cards and a cellphone from her purse, and reportedly engaged in a lewd act in front of the woman before fleeing the scene.
