Police say the man who went by the name "One Eyed Kenny" in Avondale streets was picked up by U.S. Marshals.

The 11-year-old suspected gang member is accused of breaking into a couple's home and threatening the homeowner with a gun in her waistband. Sergeant Danita Kilgore says in her experience finding a gang member that young is atypical.Numerous members of the Grimmie Gang have recently gone to trial for murder.
