Three people have been sentenced due to their involvement in the Vikings Motorcycle Club in Newfoundland and Labrador.

Multiple individuals who were brought before the court on charges stemming from Project Bombard have all been convicted, with the most recent convictions and sentencing of the following three individuals.

Vincent Leonard was sentenced to 5.5 years in prison, a lifetime firearms prohibition, a DNA order, and a fine in lieu of $33,500.

Wayne Joseph Johnson faces 5 years in prison, a lifetime firearms prohibition, a DNA order, and a fine in lieu of $48,800.

James Percy Curran will serve 3.5 years in jail, faces a lifetime firearms prohibition, and a fine lieu of $48,100.

Fine imposed in the amount of monies received during drug trafficking transactions. If the fine is not paid within five years of release from incarceration, an additional year of incarceration must be served, as per the order of the court.

Project Bombard began with the murder of Dale Porter in North River on June 29, 2014, who died as a result of multiple stab wounds. On March 8, 2019, Allan Winfield Potter was convicted of first-degree murder in the death of Porter and sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole for 25 years.

Currently, Newfoundland and Labrador is one of few provinces in Canada which do not have an established Hells Angels Motorcycle Club.
