They were just passing through.
Friday afternoon, August 23, the Glenn County Sheriff’s Office received a call reporting that two motorcyclists were seen drinking beer and urinating behind a dumpster at the Chevron station at Wood and Humboldt in Willows.
The call was received at about 2:03 p.m. According to the sheriff’s log, the unknown caller was worried about the riders after they consumed alcoholic beverages.
Glenn County Sheriff’s Sgt. Grant Lemmon responded to the business.
At about 2:15 p.m., he observed 20 to 30 members of the Vagos Motorcycle Club riding away from the Chevron parking lot.
From there, they were seen getting onto northbound Interstate 5.
Sgt. Lemmon did not see any vehicle code violations.
The Vagos Motorcycle Club, also known as the Green Nation, was formed in San Bernardino in 1964.
It is said to be a “one percenter club,” meaning that it is an outlaw motorcycle club.
It is estimated to have about 4,000 members, mostly in the western United States but also in Canada, Mexico, Europe, and elsewhere.
Along with the Mongols, the Vagos MC is considered to be a “second-tier” group, after what the FBI considers to be the Big Four: the Hells Angels, Pagans, Outlaws, and Bandidos.
