Colorado Complex Overrun by Armed Gang: Residents in Fear
Surveillance footage has surfaced, capturing what appears to be gang activity at a Colorado apartment complex, a situation exacerbated by a lack of law enforcement intervention.
The video reveals a group of men, some wielding handguns and one carrying a scoped rifle, forcefully entering the building for reasons yet to be determined.
This group is believed to be associated with Tren de Aragua (TdA), a notorious transnational gang originating from Venezuela. With an estimated 5,000 members, the gang operates under the chilling motto “real until death,” or “real hasta la muerte.”
According to a New York Post report, TdA has been linked to over 100 crimes across the country.
Aurora City Councilwoman Danielle Jurinsky, in an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital, expressed grave concerns about the gang’s activities in the city.
“Without a doubt, there is sex trafficking now going on,” she stated.
One resident, who requested anonymity, described the situation vividly.
“This is organized. They patrol the property with guns visibly, like they’re not trying to hide them. There’s no repercussion. These are ghosts.”
This resident also mentioned that the gang has been involved in drug dealing within the apartment complex.
The individual, who recently moved out with assistance from City Council Member Danielle Jurinsky and congressional candidate John Fabbricatore, shared the financial strain of the move.
“I literally had to borrow from everybody I know to get into a new place. And it’s every bit of money I had.”
She credited Fox News for facilitating her relocation.
“Through the help of Fox News actually, they connected us with the councilwoman who, Danielle Jurinsky, pulled together all the resources to get us some help and get us out of there.”
Aurora Police, addressing the situation via X, stated, “we believe reports of TdA influence in Aurora are isolated.”
Contrastingly, Denver Police informed FOX 31 that they were “not aware” of any gang takeovers in the area.
The resident further lamented the lack of police intervention.
“There’s no safety net for you because the police are not coming. They say, ‘stay inside and lock your doors.’ I have to work! I was paying rent, these people haven’t been paying rent at all. I’ve been paying rent every month for years.”
Council Member Jurinsky highlighted the broader issue of acknowledgment and response from authorities.

The Police can call in the National Guard. Why haven’t they? What’s the dam Governor doing about this? I suggest nothing because this has been going on long enough for every one of these insurgents to be arrested! What’s wrong with Colorado? Has every elected and appointed politician violated their duties? Sure looks like it. “Now is the time for all good “men” to come to the aid of [Colorado] their country”

This is an example of the problems of open border. Can’t believe politicians don’t see this or just don’t care! The US government has become a joke! There’s not one in Washington that gives a damn about the American people. They’re there just out of greed. ALL of them.

Just Colorado getting what it deserves for it’s idiotic politics. If liberals hadn’t let them in there’d be no problem.

Kamala wants these kinds of people in our country in order for them to vote for her; don’t you see it? It’s up to us the voters to stand for what is right, don’t vote for a party; vote for the person who will bring this nation for what it was before, a great country. Kamala wants the government to take care of us, but that means we will need to depend on the government. It’s time to wake up America.
