(BALDWIN COUNTY, Ala.) Baldwin County's District Attorney wants the suspects involved in the motorcycle gang murder to submit DNA samples for the case.

Five people have been arrested in connection to the death of Samuel Dixson, a Milton man found dead near Styx River last month.

Officials say all are in some way connected to a Michigan-based motorcycle gang called the "Devils Diciples."

"Because it's a cheek swab its considered non invasive," Baldwin County DA Hallie Dixon said. "The rules of criminal procedure a discovery rule allows us to ask the court for and order and they would order the defendant to comply and from there we get a cheek swab or what they call a buckle swab."

Late Monday a Baldwin County judge granted the prosecution's request to get the DNA from all the defendants. Authorities say the case will likely go to a grand jury and more arrests could be coming.

The authorities in several states ie alabama, arizona, and the clinton township and mount clemens area of michigan, needs to team up with the feds and do a real investigation on this bunch and the odds say they will find many who are wanted for something in another state. Us citizens need to keep an eye and ear out for people like this and drop a dime if we see them in our neighborhoods. Landlords and real estate agents also need to be pressured into not renting or selling to them. We have phones AND guns and we don't want you here.
