“What we see now is everyone is growing rapidly, and it’s drawing them into constant conflict across the U.S. and abroad,” said an expert on “outlaw biker gangs” in an interview with ABC 13 in Houston.
ABC13 spoke with outlaw gang expert Steve Cook.

Cook is a 30-year police officer in the Kansas City area and also the executive director of the Midwest Outlaw Motorcycle Gang Investigators Association. He said outlaw biker gangs are more prevalent than people might think.
