10/06/2008: "Rise of white gangs"

Non-Hispanic White gangs are rare, according to the National Youth Gang Center, an organization that compiles gang-related statistics from law-enforcement agencies across the U.S.

The organization estimated that 49 percent of gang members in the U.S. were Hispanic and 34 percent were Black. Nearly 10 percent were non-Hispanic White, the group said.

But the "newest gang-problem areas" involve Whites more than any other racial or ethnic group, according to the organization's Web site.
