WILMINGTON, Del. (CBS) -- A six-month-long investigation has led to more than a dozen arrests and more than 120 charges related to gang violence. Investigators say its connected to the Wilmington-area group NorthPak.

Today, Delaware Attorney General Kathy Jennings and a number of law enforcement leaders announced the indictment. Loved ones of victims were also at the news conference.

Jennings says it's families like these bearing the weight of gun violence.

"Wilmington is a small city and these families are our neighbors. Ending this awful scourge will require all of us to treat their pain and suffering as our own. Today is a step toward justice for them," Jennings said.

The violence includes six murders and a number of attempted murders.
