Aurora police shared an update after video surfaced allegedly showing heavily armed Venezuelan migrant gang members trying to break into an apartment in Colorado.
In a video from a news conference posted to the department's official X account late Friday evening, Aurora Police Department interim Chief Heather Morris said "gang members have not taken over" the apartment complex.
"I’m not saying that there’s not gang members that don’t live in this community," she said. "But what we’re learning out here is that gang members have not taken over this complex."
Several men armed with handguns and one with a scoped rifle were caught on disturbing doorbell camera footage busting through the door of an apartment in The Edge at Lowry complex for unknown reasons.
The group appears to be Tren de Aragua, or TdA, a transnational gang based in Venezuela. The gang, with reportedly 5,000 members, has a motto of "real until death," or "real hasta la muerte."
"We are aware that components of TdA are operating in Aurora. APD has been increasingly collecting evidence to show the gang is connected to crimes in the area," the Aurora Police Department said in a statement on X.
"However, as we have said previously and as the DEA similarly stated, it would be improper at this time for the city and APD to make any conclusory statements about specific incidents or provide details about law enforcement strategy and operations."

BS.
A mostly peaceful armed Venezuelan gang takeover then?
WHEW. My lying eyes lied to me again.
“Alleged”???
I heard that Biker gangs are coming to clean out the city of this violent south American gang. maybe a job for “Biker’s For Trump” Police will not act—so citizens must as in the wild west.
There are reports on Twitter that Hell’s Angels are on the way to Aurora.
I saw that vid and it was exposed as fake. Though... Even better would be the residents being allowed to arm themselves and shoot these bastards dead.
I remember when the Italian American mafia was still strong.
They were bad men but my neighborhood was safe as heck.
It was a bad mistake to try to rob or attack someone or break into a house there.
You’d be lucky if the police got you first.
Why not just call out the militia (citizens)? It’s constitutional. A quarter million men and women patrolling the streets is a good way to attrit all gangs and illegal activity.
The police would arrest the bikers.
Polis already said it was imaginary so how could the Aurora cops say otherwise and not somehow jeopardize some funding?
So these gang members are collecting rent. Is that not taking over? The several videos show the police are not in charge. The land lords are not in charge. But if some women who collects a government paycheck wants to say she is in charge. She can. But everyone there is paying rent to the gang. They are obeying the gang. And they are fleeing because of the gangs. The police can say what they want. The democrats say there is no inflation, crime or border crossings. What we can all see.
provide details about law enforcement strategy and operations.
None of which involve rounding up the bass turds and detaining them until deportation, apparently.
“”However, as we have said previously and as the DEA similarly stated, it would be improper at this time for the city and APD to make any conclusory statements about specific incidents or provide details about law enforcement strategy and operations.”
Translation: Don’t believe the lying videos, and we are procrastinating as much as possible because we are yellow as hell.
IOW, we’re gonna have to deny this because the election is coming and we don’t want to lose any Federal Funding we’re getting from the Democrats right now.
When Trump wins we’ll scream and holler like a stuck pig.
Glad to see you back mate..haven’t noticed you posting for awhile! Was worried!😄
I saw on Twitter that the Hells Angels are heading to Colorado.
Reporter: "So then you are going to go down there and police the area?
Chief Heather: "Oh heck no! It's too dangerous."
