A HELLS Angels bikie has been charged with the bashing murder of Elizabeth South man Mark Boyce following raids by heavily-armed police as they hunt two other members of the gang.
A 26-year-old man, one of three believed to be responsible for the death of Mr Boyce, was arrested at an Andrews Farm address earlier this morning.
He is due to face the Adelaide Magistrates Court on Friday.
Police issued a statement saying the trio are members of the Hells Angels outlaw motorcycle club.
Mr Boyce, 36, was attacked about 100m from his home on Hill St, Elizabeth South, on January 30.
Police declared the incident a major crime after he died in hospital on February 8.
More than 50 police this morning conducted raids at six houses at Andrews Farm, Davoren Park, Gulf View Heights, Fairview Heights and Cherry Gardens.
Officers from the Serious and Organised Crime Branch, STAR Group, Dog Operations Unit and the Elizabeth Local Service Area were involved in the raids.

“This investigation has been a challenging, lengthy and resource-intensive inquiry,” Detective Superintendent Des Bray, the officer in charge of Major Crime, said.
“We have located evidence today which we believe will assist in the investigation.
“While one man has been charged, there remains a significant amount of work to be done by detectives to build a brief of evidence against the other offenders who took part in the attack.
“Investigators are also looking at the role of some other people who were present in the immediate area at the time of the incident, but did not directly participate in the assault.”
Detectives left the Andrews Farm property just before 10.15am carrying evidence bags and a laptop.
A short time later, a woman left the house of her own accord.
Police are still searching for a Toyota RAV4 and a Toyota Echo that are linked to the incident.
