7th (gang)
7th is a street gang based on the Woodgrange Estate in Forest Gate, London. History In July 2016, a fight occurred in Stratford Park that resulted in a person being fatally stabbed; his killer was found to have been from Beckton. As a result of the killing, violence would escalate between 7th and ACG - a gang from Beckton - including a fight between the two gangs in summer 2017 in Westfield Stratford City, where an 18-year old was stabbed. It was also noted that the violence may have been a result of 7th getting a supply of cocaine, heroin, and cannabis through an Albanian gang, allowing them to send younger members to the home counties to establish new markets. In April 2017, Ahmed "Grinna" Jah was stabbed to death in Canning Town. Grinna's death was noted as having increased tensions between gangs in the north and south of Newham, resulting in several shootings and stabbings in summer 2017 that resulted in the death of CJ. In September 2017, Corey "CJ" Davis, an affiliate of 7 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
