GULFPORT, MS (WLOX) - A 5-day cooperative operation between various law enforcement divisions led to a massive crime bust in Gulfport.
Forty people were arrested as a result of Operation Shark Tank, carried out by the Gulfport Police Narcotics Division, US Marshals Gulf Coast Regional Fugitive Task Force, MBN, ATF, HSI and MDOC. The arrests took place between April 16- April 20. Officials say several firearms and narcotics were seized during this operation.
Operation Shark Tank is a sub-operation of Operation Triple Beam, a six-week-long violence reduction initiative for the Southern District of Mississippi under the U.S. Department of Justice.
A total of 270 people were arrested in the region for various crimes. Officials confirmed that about 90 were gang members with affiliations including the Gangster Disciples, Vice Lords, Simon City Royals, Latin Kings, and the Aryan Brotherhood.

As quoted in a release from Gulfport police, "Criminals should know the Gulfport Police Department will use every recourse at its disposal to detect, disrupt, and bring to justice all that seek to commit crime in our city."
Attorney General Jeff Sessions stated, "The arrest of more than 270 people – including 90 gang members – throughout the Southern District of Mississippi is the result of collaboration between federal officers and our state and local partners." He added, “When law enforcement officers work together, we get results."

great job. thanks to all leo involved. and because someone has to say it, thanks Jeff, what you’ve done so far is just outstanding—especially given the obstacles you continue to face, keep it up AG.
meanwhile, liberals are crying over the loss of 270 votes.
I love Mississippi... Great Hard Working people.
But how many will actually get convicted and go to jail?
I think we need more jails in America and more convictions, not less.
More death sentences too.
“Send ‘em all to Gitmo.”....
Better yet, send ‘em all to hell and let the devil deal with them.
Any deportations?
Deport Bloods and Crips too. Sent them ALL to El Salvador.
Well done! Good job!
