Online Beef Turns Into Arrest of North Carolina Hells Angel
Watch on YouTubeVideo summary
The recent arrest of Mike Stone Street, the Sergeant-at-Arms for the Hell's Angels 81 chapter in Wilmington, North Carolina, marks a significant escalation in internal disputes within the club. Stone Street faces nearly a dozen charges stemming from a series of violent offenses committed against a former prospect known online as "Nick." This conflict began after Nick left his prospect status and launched a vicious social media campaign taunting the club members. The situation deteriorated rapidly into physical altercations, including an assault, a robbery, and significant property damage involving the smashing of windows and vandalism of a residence and a motorcycle, allegedly carried out with heavy lumber.
The roots of this feud appear to lie in cultural and disciplinary differences between Nick and the Wilmington chapter leadership. Founded in 2019 with support from East Coast chapters like those in New York and Connecticut, the Wilmington club was built on a core group that transitioned from a prior support club called the Desperados. Nick, who reportedly came from New York's New Rock City chapter to bring experience with the "1%" culture, eventually felt that the local leadership was too lax and lacked the discipline expected of major Hell's Angels factions. This friction led Nick to quit prospecting, claiming the club was not worthy of his services, which subsequently triggered a period of harassment where he felt stalked by associates of the chapter before the violence erupted in public view.
This incident highlights a broader trend within organized crime groups, including street gangs and drug organizations, where social media platforms like TikTok are increasingly used to fuel feuds that result in real-world violence. The host notes that while power dynamics in the Hell's Angels Nation have shifted from the West Coast to East Coast hubs like New York and even further to Canada, local chapters still face challenges in managing internal conflicts without public fallout. The messy nature of this dispute, involving a civilian victim and family members, has damaged the reputation of the club and raised concerns about their ability to control their own members and keep internal business out of the public eye.
As the legal proceedings move forward, Mike Stone Street faces an uphill battle against charges that include robbery, aggravated assault, vandalism, trespassing, and destruction of property. The host expresses hope that this arrest serves as a turning point that ends the violence and intimidation within the Wilmington chapter, noting that it is only the club's seventh year of existence. While the higher-ups in major chapters may be monitoring the situation through proxies, the immediate focus remains on resolving this specific conflict to prevent further escalation. The network promises to continue monitoring the case with federal law enforcement sources to provide updates as the legal fallout unfolds and hopes for a peaceful resolution that restores order to the local chapter.

Original Gangsters News with Scott
Bernstein.
>> Welcome to the Original Gangsters News
Network and Podcast. I'm your host,
Scott Bernstein. We're going to go out
and discuss some Hell's Angels drama in
North Carolina.
Specifically, we're going to go out to
the southeastern part of the state to
Wilmington and discuss uh the 81 chapter
in Wilmington, which is in its first
decade of existence. And there seems to
be quite a bit of drama erupting in
Wilmington related to internal disputes
in the Hell's Angels or disputes between
the Hell's Angels in Wilmington and a
former prospect. There was the arrest
last week of Sergeant-at-Arms Mike Stone
Street for a series of uh violent
offenses
that were perpetrated against this
former prospect who's been taunting the
Wilmington Hell's Angels in a pretty
vicious online
campaign uh on social media, Tik Tok,
making big accusations. We'll get into
some of uh what those accusations are
and what the background
uh of this situation is and the history
of the Wilmington Hell's Angels. So, uh
last week, I believe it was September
15th or 16th, uh Mike Stone Street was
arrested. This was the uh culmination of
I believe two
different altercations with this
former prospect who I'm I'm being tipped
off by law enforcement in North Carolina
and they wouldn't give me the full name
of the prospect. Uh he goes by Nick on
social media. I'm told that is his real
first name, but we don't have a last
name. But, uh, Nick was a prospect in
the Hell's Angels up until a few months
ago and then quit and then began
attacking
members of the club uh, via online
social media posts.
And then
two separate uh altercations
were
um took place
in the second to third week of
September. There was an assault. There
was a robbery. There was a destruction
of property, trespassing.
And right now, Mike Stone Street, the
sergeant-at-arms,
is facing like almost a dozen charges.
Uh, and from a legal perspective,
he's going to have an uphill battle uh
getting past these. Um,
so there was an iPhone that was stolen.
Uh, there was a residence, a private
residence that was attacked and uh uh
windows were busted open and other
property damage occurred. And then uh
the former prospect's
bike was attacked and vandalized and and
uh a lot of this
was a lot of this damage was done with
like a 2x8, not a 2x4, a 2x8, like a big
um
piece of wood that you can do a lot of
damage with if uh
if you intend to. And according to these
charges, that's what Mike Stone Street
is accused of doing. So this all really
kind of
spiraled out of control
pretty quickly. And I think it also
is a snapshot
and I think this is a is a broad brush
stroke that you can kind of take across
biker clubs, street gangs,
drug organizations. I don't know so much
about the Italian mafia, but definitely
those other three group, you know,
street gangs,
drug gangs. biker clubs where social
media can play a major role in
you know
assaults, attempted assaults,
murders, not in this case.
um
conspiracies, you know, harassment
conspiracies and uh other types of uh uh
conspiracies and and violent that
involving violence and racketeering.
A lot of people put their business out
on socials now. And even the criminals
are quick to
throw jabs
uh in in cyerspace
either not realizing or not caring that
these kind of things can
prompt
real serious consequences on both on all
sides of this. So, I'm going to go over
a little bit of what I've been told
um in regards to this
feud that has developed between the
former prospect Nick and the leadership
of the Wilmington Hell's Angels. So,
Wilmington,
the 81 chapter in Wilmington was founded
in 2019, not that long ago. Uh I'm told
that New York and Connecticut
Hell's Angels shot callers in both those
states played a role in uh allowing
Wilmington to
open up a 81 chapter. I'm told that the
uh the president of the Wilmington
chapter is a guy named Earl Losi. And
Earl and Mike Stone Street come from a a
prior support club known as the
Desperados. and the Desperadoo
motorcycle club patched over to be
Hell's Angels and that was the the uh
the core of the new Hell's Angels and
Wilmington came from the Desperados. Uh
there's also, I'm told, some East
Coasters that came in at least early on
to help the club get up and running. Uh
people from New York and and
Connecticut. It's interesting to point
out uh something that you know this
particular scenario uh paints the
picture that we've been talking about
how uh here at OG about how the power in
81 Nation
seemed like it was forever on the west
coast of the United States and
it has moved East [clears throat] and
the most powerful Hell's Angels in the
US right now are out of New York. Um,
and the most powerful Hell's Angels
faction in the world right now is out of
uh, Canada. uh Montreal, Hamilton with
Nurgot Stadnik, the national Canadian
president going on pushing 40 years out
of uh Ontario Hamilton and then his uh
his mouthpiece on the street and around
the globe,
possibly the most influential
biker boss on the planet right now
daytoday, Marty Rober out of the
Montreal chapter. Um, and we know that
Marty and Nurgot have
a lot of influence and uh oversight of
the things that are going on in New York
and Connecticut. So even though this
particular story about the Hell's Angels
in North Carolina does it, there isn't a
direct line to be drawn between the
Wilmington Hell's Angels drama and
anything that's going on up in Canada.
You can,
you know, via proxies and intermediaries
and and other uh,
you know, connections,
tangential connections or uh, you know,
offshoot connections. You can make that
you can make that uh, that link. So
Earl Losi uh, opens up the Hell's Angel
Wilmington chapter in 2019. Um, they
start building They're getting help from
the guys on the East Coast.
Nick, the the prospect who was the
victim of these assaults in the last
couple weeks, um, at some point gets
selected to prospect.
And Nick, I'm told, came from New York,
uh, and came from a chapter called New
Rock City.
And I don't know if he moved down
specifically to eventually become a
Hell's Angel or if he just happened to
be down in North Carolina when the
Hell's Angels were starting up there.
Uh, I think he I'm told that he lives
outside of Wilmington
and that according to the my law
enforcement sources, part of the
intention of bringing him into the club
originally was to get a guy that
knew
1% culture, uh,
who came from an area where the Hell's
Angels are,
you know, the the at the top of the heap
and do things the quote unquote right
way [clears throat] and then to get him
in uh patch him in and then send him
to other parts of North Carolina to to
open up uh either you know 81 chapters
or 81 support support clubs. So,
I'm not exactly certain how long Nick
was prospecting for, but by
early 2026,
things were headed south. And I think
there was, based on what I'm told, there
was friction between uh Nick and the
leaders of the Wilmington chapter
related to
protocol, order of operation,
just in general, the way business was
done. And
I I think based on what I'm told, there
was some
some belief that the uh the Hell's
Angels in Wilmington were too
laxidasical
uh not, you know, disciplined enough to,
you know, warrant
or uh uh you know, get a lot the same
kind of respect that the Hell's Angels
from other states and other countries
do. Um that they were,
this is coming from people that I know
in law enforcement that I've talked to
Nick um
in that
there were police reports filed. So,
kind of going through some of the police
reports. I don't know if I don't want to
make it seem like Nick is cooperating. I
have no idea. I don't think that's the
case, but I know that there were police
reports filed. Um, and and from those
police reports, there were people that
were opining
and you know, the belief was that
Nick didn't believe he was
or that the Hell's Angels were worthy
were worthy of him. You know, it's
usually the other way around when the
club decides whether whether or not
they're worthy or the club decides
whether or not the prospect is worthy to
be in the club. In this case, it was
Nick, I'm told, the prospect who turned
in his gear and decided to quit
prospecting because he didn't feel that
uh the Hell's Angels in Wilmington were
worthy of of his services. Now, I don't
know if that's true. I don't know if uh
there's there's legitimacy in that, but
that's what it a lot of this stems from.
There were a couple incidents, I'm told,
in the parking lot of the Wilmington
chapter clubhouse. Um there were issues
that I think Nick was having with
members of the club and
and and things
got heated in the parking lot on more
than one occasion. And one of the I
think one of the final
instances
took place in in the parking lot. And
then that sparks this three or four
month
Tik Tok tirade that Nick has been
launching at uh Mike Stone Street and
other members of the Wilmington
Hell's Angels. So,
uh, you had a,
uh, a situation where, according to the
police report, uh, Nick felt like he was
being stalked, that, uh, people that he
had fallen out with in 81 in Wilmington
or people that they were affiliated with
were were kind of leaning on him, uh,
uh, you know, following him around,
lurking being wherever he was across the
street from his house or uh by where he
worked or just kind of trying to make
their presence felt. And then there was
the uh an incident where Stone Street
allegedly took his phone.
And then
shortly thereafter,
Stone Street and some other guys show up
at Nick's house and attack his bike,
vandalize his bike, and then
start tearing up his front yard and
breaking windows. And I think I'm told
uh that that Nick might have had a um
infant child there when one of these
attacks took place. So, you know, these
were
tensions that were elevating rapidly
and a lot of it was playing out on
social media and now Mike Stone Street
is
facing a lot of charges. And I don't
know what kind of fallout this will
have. I don't know if if or or
uh or or how the
the higherups in whether it be New York
or Canada or Connecticut or even out in
LA or Nocal are keeping tabs on this,
but
this [snorts] this is
you know escalating
and you know I don't know if if Stone
Street uh has made bond or that. But it
doesn't look like this is just an issue
with Nick and Stone Street. This looks
like it's an issue with Nick and the
entire
81 chapter in Wilmington. Um,
but you know, that's where we are right
now. Arrests were made last week. Mike
Ston Street is facing a lot of charges
including
uh robbery, aggravated assault, [snorts]
vandalism, destruction of property,
trespassing,
and
you know, this I hope is the end of
this. I I hope that we don't have to
report on any more uh violence or
intimidation or bad blood in this
chapter. I mean, it's the first time
we're talking about the the North
Carolina Hell's Angels. Um
they've been they've only been a club
for seven years.
this isn't the best way to kind of have
you introduced to the to the general,
you know, 1% world on the internet to
talk about how you have a renegade ex-
prospect that's thrown shade to you on
TikTok and then
you roll up at his crib and attack his
house and attack his bike, take his
phone and a lot of this was caught on
security camera. I mean, from what I can
understand from reading the police
report, um, Stone Street's kind of,
you know, he's he's in a lot of trouble
and, uh, I don't know how you can fight
these charges. So, you know, at a at a
minimum, I'm guessing Stone Street's
going to have to go away and do some
time on this.
In terms of the more macro picture,
the the Wilmington Hell's Angels need to
do uh better with their with their house
cleaning, housekeeping, both keeping,
you know, their their their dirty
laundry out of the public purview. um
not having a situation like this
go from
in the clubhouse to out in the parking
lot to out on social media to a series
of assaults with
a civilian now cuz he's not a member of
the club and uh his family there. And uh
I'm sure this is not a good look for,
you know, 360, whether it be law
enforcement in North Carolina, whether
it be regular Joe and Jane Qitizen in
Wilmington
or the Hell's Angels brand
itself. It just it looks messy. Um it
looks unckempt. It looks like
you can't control your own people. And
this [clears throat] is again, this
isn't the blue wave. This isn't, you
know, the pagans or the outlaw. This is
hell's hell's angels fighting with their
own prospects and it getting
very public and uh being blasted all
over social media and now there's been
arrests. So, wanted to come and give
everyone an update. Hopefully, again,
this is the last time I'm going to
report on it. Hopefully, everything gets
uh settled and there's no more violence.
