Owen Shaw's Team

Profiles of Own Shaw's current and final crew collected by the Diplomatic Security Service.

"The crew we're after? They hit like thunder and disappear like smoke. You go in after them alone, you won't ever touch 'em."

―Luke Hobbs

"Shaw's Team" were a group of associates affiliated with ex-Special Air Service Major, Owen Shaw. Shaw's team is considered akin to that of Dominic Toretto's crew. Each member working within a specific area of specialty that allows Shaw to pull off major scores and other thefts as a working unit. However, unlike that of Toretto's crew, Shaw considers his teammates useful until they're not or make mistakes that compromise the entire unit. They are easily replaceable and he holds no familial bond or lasting loyalty for any of them.

History

Shaw, an ally of Arturo Braga, was responsible for identifying Letty Ortiz as an informant for the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Following the failed assassination attempt by Fenix Calderon against Letty, she was hospitalized for her injuries. Shaw, intended to kill Letty at the hospital. When he learned that she had no memories of her life or the events leading up to her hospitalization, he took her under his wing and added her to his team.

In Berlin, Germany, Shaw and his team attacked an armed military convoy. Security cameras managed to capture the face of a then presumed dead Letty.

Hobbs's Pursuit

United States Customs Service agent, Monica Fuentes, presumably searching for Shaw herself, traveled to the Washington, D.C. branch of the Diplomatic Security Service to speak with Luke Hobbs.

She provided Hobbs information regarding Shaw, knowing the survival of Letty Ortiz would convince him to go after Dominic Toretto again. Hobbs was later assigned to apprehend Owen Shaw. Hobbs pursued of Shaw's team across four continents and twelve countries with no success.

2010

Moscow Heist

Shaw and his team remained at large, and were able to attack another military caravan in Russia a week before Hobbs traveled to the Canary Islands. They were able to steal a military Seattle component and caused immeasurable damage under ninety seconds. Six people were hospitalized as a result of their actions. One Shaw's members, Oakes, was apprehended by Interpol and interrogated for the location of Shaw.

He refused to speak, Hobbs was later brought in after his partner, Riley Hicks, negated a five minute meet with him. Hobbs attacked Oaks in the interrogation room until Oaks gave him the answers he and Interpol were looking for. Oakes later agreed to being used as an informant to identity Owen Shaw in London.

London Heist

Knowing that a team of similar individuals were required to stop Shaw, Hobbs enlisted the help of Dominic Toretto and his team, using the information on Letty to lure him in. Once gathered together in London, Hobbs explained that Shaw's team ran jobs primarily in Europe. However, Shaw's ambitions was beginning to take the team into riskier territory.

They centralized their focus on three targets: A computer mainframe from a ICBM missile, a computer virus taken from a NSA Black Lab and one final component located at a military base in Spain. He would use the stolen components to build a Nightshade device, a tech bomb that could disable power to an entire country's grid. His intention was to sell it to the highest bidder. Dominic's crew agreed to help Hobbs apprehend Shaw's team on the stipulation that they are all given pardons for helping him.

Interpol sent Oakes in to identity Shaw at a parking garage, which draws most of Interpol's forces and the local police to one location. Shaw, aware that Interpol used one of his own against him, gifts Oakes with a bag of money armed with a bomb. He escapes using a custom ramp car, built for him by a mechanic named Firuz. Elsewhere, Vegh, Denlinger, Jah, Klaus, Adolfson and Ivory attacked Interpol headquarters. They stole information on several locations to where the final component for the Nightshade device would be. While they were inconvenienced by the arrival of, Brian O'Conner, Han Seoul-Oh, and Gisele Yashar, Adolfson, a sniper, provides cover long enough for his teammates to escape. He and Ivory later retreat after his attempt to kill Gisele fails.

Vegh and the others are pursued by Brian, Roman Pearce and Tej Parker. Jah, Denlinger and Klaus use a electronic device against all three of 2010 BMW M5s. They are able to take control of both Roman and Tej's cars and cause them to crash. Brian remained in pursuit, able to remove the device from his vehicle. Dominic, Hobbs and Brian continued pursuit on different ends of the city. Brian was eventually taken out by Vegh's flip car after almost running Jah and the others off the road. Dominic was drawn away from Owen Shaw by Letty, who would later attack him. Shaw escaped Hobbs and returned to his headquarters.

They were able access information on Toretto's crew and searched for more information on their personal lives. With only ninety six hour window use the information stolen from Interpol, Shaw ad his team move to execute the final phase of the plan. Elsewhere, Dominic's crew discover Firuz, the man responsible for constructing the ramp cars used by Shaw and Vegh.

Firuz contacts Shaw, who sends Ivory, Jah and Letty to silence him. Jah and Ivory are able to kill Firuz, but miss the opportunity to kill Roman, Han and Gisele. Ivory is killed by Gisele during his attempt to escape. Jah is able to escape after beating both Han and Roman in a fight. In the Los Angeles prison where Braga is imprisoned, Brian, undercover as a prisoner, learned from Braga that Shaw had a mole somewhere major law enforcement circuits.

That allowed him to know what Hobbs and the others intended to do before they could mobile against him. During the time Shaw met with Dominic, he sent Klaus and Vegh after Mia Toretto and her son, Jack. While they were unable to kidnap Jack, they caught Mia who used herself as a distraction to keep her son safe with Elena Neves, her unspoken bodyguard.

Lusitania, Spain

Shaw and his team relocate to Lusitania, Spain before Hobbs and Hicks can apprehend them. They close in on a NATO base where Adolfson infiltrates a military convoy, impersonating military personnel. They were identified by boarder patrol, who later reported their finding to Hobbs. Realizing the base may have been compromised, Hobbs had the final component moved out of the base. On the highway, Shaw, Jah and Letty attack the convoy, killing its primary defense and take over the truck carrying the tank. Ahead of them, Denlinger sets up a roadblock using high-tensile wire to stop the final defense of the convoy.

The wire halts the transport the tank was hidden in, allowing Shaw, Letty and Jah to escape inside without complication. Shaw and Jah create massive confusion on the highway, attacking civilians with the tank. Dominic and the others head out toward them on the opposite side of the highway. Han and Gisele are able to apprehend Denlinger, who attempted to run Gisele's motorcycle off the road.

When Roman's 1967 Ford Mustang Fastback is caught under the treads of the tank, he takes the opportunity to wrap a high-tensile wire around the nose of the tank before abandoning the Ford and jumping to safety to Brian's Ford Escort MK I. Realizing they intended to use the damaged Mustang as an anchor to stop, Shaw ordered Letty outside of the tank to remove the wire.

Shaw aims the nose of the tank over the gap of the bridge, the crushed Ford falls over the bridge and halts the tank, which throws Letty from the top of the tank. Dominic launches himself from his Dodge Charger Daytona and catches Letty, rescuing her from certain death. Shaw and Jah are recovered from the tank, which was flipped onto its top by the sudden stop. Back at the military base, the computer chip stolen from the base was recovered and most of Shaw's team was placed into custody.

When Shaw and his team were brought out to speak with Dominic and the others, Shaw explained that was holding Mia hostage. With the inadvertent help of Hobbs, Shaw, Jah, Adolfson, and Denlinger were allowed to leave the NATO base with the computer chip. Riley, the mole Braga mentioned to Brian, accompanied them, revealing to Dominic and Hobbs how Shaw remained ahead of them throughout their pursuit of his team.

They headed for the airport where Vegh and Klaus were waiting with Mia in their plane. Dominic and the others followed Shaw to his plane. Letty, Dominic and Brian were able to board the plane while Han, Gisele, Tej and Roman attacked the plane from the outside to prevent it from taking off. During the altercation on the plane, Klaus is rendered unconscious by Dominic and Hobbs; Riley is killed with a harpoon by Letty.

Outside, Tej, Roman, Han and Gisele deal with Adolfson, Denlinger and Jah. When Brian and Mia escape the plane using a car on the plane, Vegh pursues them. Brian uses the same trick Vegh and the others used against him, only to launch the car he was driving out of danger. Vegh sees the road block too late and crashes in her ramp car.

Jah and Denlinger are taken out of the fight by the exhaust of the airplane. Adolfson fights Gisele, whom he drags out of the Dodge Charger. Han abandons the Dodge to help Gisele, who nearly falls from Adolfson's vehicle, trapped against theirs by the harpoon Gisele shot into the wing of the plane. Han is able to save her, but cannot do anything to stop Adolfson from killing either of them. Gisele lets go of Han and is able to shoot Adolfson in the shoulder before falling to her death.

An enraged Han attacks Adolfson and throws him into the drift of the plane's engine. Adolfson is dragged into the plane's engine, which kills him and destroys the wing of the plane. Brian uses another harpoon and successfully hits the flap of the plane's wing. Mia uses the wire to pull the plane back down before it can successfully take off.

Hobbs and Letty are able to jump from the plane onto Tej's Range Rover. Dominic attempts to stop Shaw from escaping with the computer chip and is successfully in stealing it back from him. Before Shaw can stop him, the momentum of the plane sends his car sliding back against the blockade inside the plane, which throws him out of the plane onto the airstrip.

Since the events of London, Shaw has been hospitalized for his injuries, his team officially disbanded on account of their deaths. Comatose, he is unaware that his older brother, Deckard Shaw, decided to take revenge against Toretto's crew in his name.
