Definitions
noun
1
A gangster; a hired thug.
There is no question the MS-13 gang must be stopped. It is a vile organization of hoodlums with no regard for life.
In Sam Mendes's excellent gangster movie Road to Perdition (2002), he tested the boundaries further playing a hitman – but while we know he's a killer, we never really see him go full-pelt hoodlum.
2
A rough or violent youth.
