A pair of Tren de Aragua gangbangers tied to a wild Aurora, Colorado apartment invasion were arrested in a major NYC drug trafficking and credit card scam bust Wednesday that also netted an arsenal of deadly assault rifles, The Post has learned.
Denyeer Aramillo Meneses, 23, and Edison Pena Angulo, 25, were picked up during an early-morning raid in the Bronx by a gang task force led by the NYPD and US Homeland Security Investigation, according to law enforcement sources.
In total, 15 suspected members of the Venezuelan migrant gang were nabbed following a months-long investigation into narcotics trafficking and gang violence, the sources said.
“Enough already with these guys,” one law enforcement source told The Post. “[TDA’s] time is up.”
Meneses and Angulo were allegedly part of a gun-toting group of bandits who stormed an Aurora apartment in August in a viral caught-on-camera burglary that made national headlines, sources added.
Local police issued warrants for Meneses and Angulo on Oct. 1, according to 9 News in Denver.
But they somehow made their way to New York City, where cops collared them at about 3:30 a.m. on Wednesday.
That dragnet was the result of a six-month investigation into violent gang crimes that quickly led to the drug ring, which sources say ran from the Bronx to lower Manhattan.
The group was selling a variety of drugs — including heroin, fake weed and the synthetic drug Tussi — and also dabbled in credit card fraud and violence, sources said.
Cops also found a cache of semi-automatic weapons during the raid, including three assault rifles, two pistols and ammo cans packed with cartridges, sources said.
It’s unclear what charges the Tren de Aragua suspects face because their federal indictment and the offenses remain sealed.

Helicopter ride!, Helicopter ride!
hmm....aren’t recreational drugs legal now? I must admit I can’t keep up with the drug laws changing on a state by state basis since I don’t indulge. We know NYC ain’t a fan of guns though.
American can end this nightmare.
In the country illegally + felony conviction = express lane to death penalty.
I’m slow in the morning.
That took a minute to get :)
Thanks to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris for letting them in.

They are such nice boys....
Did these deadly asault rifles have legs and stingers on them, like scorpions? Or perhaps they are special assault rifles that can fire themselves?
I was visiting relatives in Northville, MI (one of the more monied areas of the upper Midwest) and the local police have in custody a couple of suspected Tren de Aragua thugs they arrested in a gated community, there are dozens of these subs. These criminals are still in custody and will be tried for robbery.
Apparently these thugs pick the larger gated areas that have woodland lines and breaks so they can rob in broad daylight and escape on foot and get picked up through the woods. They go after cash and jewelry, that’s it. Let’s hope these criminals pick the wrong house and find their testicles separated and become fertilizer.
Of course the person I am had to focus on:
“Cops also found a cache of semi-automatic weapons during the raid, including three assault rifles, two pistols and ammo cans packed with cartridges, sources said.”
Semiautomatic and assault rifle in the same sentence about the same rifles. bless the writer and their editor’s little hearts.
Correct, What good is deportation? They will be back in a week. Better to start building prisons like Brazil. Go in and never come out.
“Cops also found a cache of semi-automatic weapons during the raid, including three assault rifles, two pistols and ammo cans packed with cartridges, sources said. “
Arsenal? Nope.
BTTT
A bullet or rope is cheaper.
What? My Guvnor’ Polis said there warnt no such thing.
Aurora mug shots.
Can’t be. It was all just right wing racist fear mongering.
