Three men allegedly attempted to recruit a 17-year-old into a subset of the Hayward Norteños, then attacked him when he resisted.
HAYWARD — Two men have been arrested and charged with several felonies for allegedly attacking and threatening a 17-year-old boy who resisted their attempts to recruit him into a subset of the Norteños, court records show.
Police allege that on the evening of June 7, the teen was walking on Havana Avenue when three known Norteño members approached him and told him he was going to join their gang. One of them allegedly told him he could say no if he wanted to, but then changed his mind and told the boy he didn’t have a choice.
When the boy resisted, one of the suspects allegedly struck him in the face and another pulled a gun. One of them allegedly threatened to murder an eyewitness’ family if she reported the incident to police.
