The feds busted up a notorious Bronx drug gang yesterday in a series of early-morning raids.

Eight members of the violent "Creston Avenue Crew" -- responsible for moving about 1,000 kilos of marijuana and 5 kilos of cocaine -- were arrested when FBI agents swept through homes around the gang's base near Creston Avenue at 2615 Grand Concourse in Kingsbridge, said FBI spokesman Jim Margolin.

Three crew members also were busted in Puerto Rico. Authorities are seeking 12 other members in New York, Texas and Florida.
