“Virginia Beach prosecutors say a gang of armed thugs has been preying on undocumented Hispanic workers who are unlikely to report the crimes.

Police spokeswoman Margie Long said the robberies numbered fewer than 12. She was unable to provide any other information or the names of anyone arrested. But advocates for Hispanic workers say the number of actual robberies is far higher, and the problem expends beyond Virginia Beach.”
