An armed crew of nine suspected Tren de Aragua (TdA) gang members were caught on camera wreaking havoc at a Colorado apartment complex earlier this month, in an incident Aurora police are calling “very reminiscent” of the violence previously incited in the area by the Venezuelan gang.

Doorbell video shows the group pointing guns and repeatedly knocking on an apartment door in a building near 6th Avenue and Potomac Street in Aurora, Colorado, on June 9, Police Chief Todd Chamberlain said during a press conference on Tuesday.

“This might sound like déjà vu,” Chamberlain said. “… We are addressing this actively, effectively and immediately.”

The people who lived in the apartment were also from Venezuela and had just moved in two days prior to the incident, Chamberlain noted, acknowledging that it’s a good thing the residents did not open the door after hearing the knocking.

I want everyone to understand and to know that we are ahead of this,” Chamberlain said. “This isn’t something that we’re reacting to. This is something that we are proactively addressing with everything that we can possibly do.”

The shocking footage comes as U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement works to remove TdA from U.S. soil. In February, the U.S. declared TdA a global terrorist organization.

Aurora is the third-largest city in Colorado with a population of more than 398,000, according to the City of Aurora website. Last summer, an Aurora apartment complex was at the center of the TdA gang takeover controversy after a viral video showed heavily armed gang members taking over an apartment by busting down the door with heavy artillery. 

Earlier this year, nine suspected TdA members were charged following a violent home invasion, kidnapping and robbery in Aurora.

Aurora Police did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
