A suspected MS-13 gang member was arrested Tuesday in Flowery Branch in connection with the 2011 execution-style deaths of two brothers in New York. Arnolvin Umanzor Velasquez, aka “Momia” or “Lito,” was arrested by an FBI SWAT team in the 4200 block of Winder Highway and arraigned in Atlanta before U.S. Magistrate Judge E. Clayton Scofield III, according to the FBI. Velasquez was indicted along with other suspected MS-13 members Edwin Acosta-Martinez, aka “Scarface,” and Sergio Cerna, aka “Taz” or “Lechon,” according to an FBI news release. The FBI defines MS-13 as a violent international street gang comprising primarily immigrants from El Salvador and Honduras.
