DENVER (KDVR) — A surge of migrants showed up in the Mile High City in the past week, and while the group’s origin is still unknown, assistance for them is being figured out.
Over the past two months, 300 migrants have come to Denver but the recent surge was significant, Mayor Michael Hancock’s Chief of Staff Evan Dreyer said in a news conference Thursday. They were dropped off in various locations and in various ways including Denver International Airport, Union Station by bus or personal vehicles and made their way to the Denver Rescue Mission.
The city is currently hosting 120 migrants at an emergency shelter that was opened after the recent influx. Dreyer said more migrants are arriving Thursday and the mayor’s office was given a heads up of 20 more, but that it will provide an accurate number later in the day.
Dreyer confirmed that the migrants are from Central and South America with a majority from Venezuela. It appears to have been organized among the group through social media. There is no evidence it was orchestrated by a particular government group, he said.
This is an ongoing situation and the city is working to accommodate more migrants making their way to Denver. Dreyer said other cities are believed to be dealing with the same trickle of migrants then experiencing a surge at some point.

Why should WE help illegals? Farms, restaurants and other companies use illegals for cheap labor, but the rest of us pay for their healthcare, food, housing, and crime.
My suggestion to a DC thinktank was to charged an immigration tax to farms, for example, to compensate for the aforementioned costs. I was promptly dismissed.
The thinktank was funded by the “conservative” Kochs.
Bus them to the National Observatory.
Bring The Border to Biden [and Camel-ha-ha-ha].
Ground up, would they make good compost?
send them to aspen.
and while the group’s origin is still unknown
It doesn’t take a Rocket Doctor to figure out how they got there.
perhaps the investigators should hire somebody who speaks the same language as the sudden arrivals. That might faclitate matters.
Time to start doing the Mexican hat dance folks! Let them “enrich” your lives!!!
I would guess, being Denver, that signing them up to vote as democrats is the first order of business. Followed by an EBT card.
Remember the good ol’ days when an immigrant had to have a job lined up or a guarantor to support them?
