Houston police have charged 11 Hurricane Katrina evacuees with crimes, and say they are seeing an escalation of violence in the city.
Eight of the men have been apprehended while three are believed to be at large in Houston, the Houston Chronicle reports.
The charges, announced Friday by investigators in the city's gang murder squad, involve homicides, robberies and kidnappings that began in November.
Police say some of the crimes are gang-related and connected to turf battles that moved from New Orleans to Houston.
Many of those accused of Houston violence had a criminal record from Louisiana.
Peace!
