Gregory Wooley, an influential member of the Hells Angels former underling network who is currently serving time at a penitentiary in Kingston, Ont.Wooley, a former member of the Rockers, a Hells Angels puppet gang, is serving time for offences that took place during the biker gang war in the 1990s. But he is now facing new charges related to the current investigation which targeted at least two major Montreal-based street gangs. Wooley was scheduled to have a parole hearing in the coming weeks.A 38-year-old inmate at another federal penitentiary, the Leclerc Institution in Laval, Que., is also expected to be placed under arrest. The man at Leclerc is believed to be the head of the Syndicate street gang and was arrested in another large drug bust that struck his gang and the Hells Angels.A Quebec police source said the investigation targeted the Syndicate and other groups aligned with the Blue or Crips side of Montreal street gangs.``This operation targeted people involved with cocaine trafficking,'' said Montreal police Sgt. Ian Lafreniere, adding suspects were involved in importing and trafficking in Montreal and in Ottawa.``It's not only the people selling on the street level. It's top people (in the gangs) as well,'' he said. ``This investigation began in January 2006. So this was a long investigation and a huge operation today. We believe we've hit the top of the chain.''In executing search warrants the police hope to seize drugs and firearms.Police are expected to hold a news conference about the operation Thursday afternoon.
