Property Manager Accuses Venezuelan Gang of Taking Control of Aurora Apartments, Attempting Extortion

A New York-based property management company has broken its silence on recent reports that a Venezuelan gang known for its violent and illegal activities took control of several apartment buildings it manages in Aurora, Colorado. The company said gang members seized control of some units, allegedly assaulted one of their employees, and tried to extort the company.

The landlord, CBZ Management, said in a series of posts on social media on Oct. 11 that law enforcement told them the notorious Tren de Aragua gang from Venezuela was behind the takeover, which the company said left their tenants and employees in a precarious situation, fearing for their safety.

The property management firm said the trouble began in late 2023, after they had made significant investments to upgrade several apartment complexes in Aurora.

This can obviously be ignored since we all know that property management firms, even if they are based in Brooklyn, New York, are all right-wingers.

It’s just a handful of complexes. What’s the big deal?

Just "some" units, no worries, only "some" people will be harmed, robbed and beaten.

How can CO gov just let this go?

This is obscene.

If a gang can take over building and patches of land. What is the point of paying taxes to the gov for services and Law enforcement?

Yep. Like those people in Seattle that were in the “zone” seized by the BLM scum.

Never mind the people whose property was destroyed by those same people, and their government, local and federal, to whom they paid taxes, refused to lift a finger at best to protect the, and at worst, sided with the scumbags and enabled them to carry out their arson and mayhem.

Right. WHY pay taxes if that is what we get?

They are just like the fat commissar in Doctor Zhivago who subdivided his spacious apartment into living spaces for the party. Remember her?

But...but...CNN and the Democrats say the Venezuelan gang story is blown way out of proportion and it’s just a few men hassling a few tenants, right?

The property management company must be "misinformed," because Raddatz "knows all about this."

Does anyone know if the story is true that the original apartment buildings with the armed thugs coming in on surveillance camera videos are still in charge there? Not evicted by authorities? Heard that yesterday.

Minimizing the total number is not going to overcome JD Vance’s argument in the interview. Sort of like only a few rats with rabies are in the elementary school classrooms, only a few.
