Common Tattoos - "Grandel" G with two swords.

Racial make up - Mexican Americans (Chicanos) from Glendale, Arizona

Prison Criminal Activity - Narcotics, Extortion, Assaults, and Gambling.

STG Specific Tattoo/Symbolism: Will usually be the word �grandel�. Can also be the letter �G� which will sometimes have two swords encircling the �G�. Sometimes a cardinal will be used. Informants tell me that it can be different types of swords.

Trends: Grandel Mafia. Varrio Sixty-First (VSF or 61st) members forming internal group. Clavalito Park (52nd) is also part of the group. On the streets, rumor has it that both groups united under the name "siete" or "seven," being that 5 and 2 or 6 and 1 is "seven." This is just a rumor though. They are also being courted for alliance with OMM.
