Flying Dragons (gang)

Common card · No. 274457

The Flying Dragons, also known as FDS, was a Chinese American street gang prominent in New York City's Chinatown from the 1970s to the early 1990s. Formed in 1967 by immigrants primarily from Hong Kong, they were affiliated with the Hip Sing Tong. During the 1980s, the gang often engaged in bloody turf wars with the newer Ghost Shadows gang. Their activities included extortion, kidnapping, murder, racketeering, and illegal gambling. The gang moved heavily into heroin trafficking after the Italian-American Mafia lost the trade as a result of the Pizza Connection prosecutions in the mid-1980s.
