ICE raid targets 100 Tren de Aragua members in Aurora, CO

ICE agents conducted raids at several apartment complexes in Aurora, Colorado to apprehend 100 members of the Tren de Aragua gang. This action comes shortly after the state’s Democratic governor had disregarded earlier reports from The Post about the gang’s presence in the Denver suburb.

The Denver branch of ICE collaborated with federal agents from various agencies such as the DEA, FBI, US Marshals, and Customs and Border Patrol to carry out these arrests.

The agency did not not say how many gang members were ultimately nabbed in the raid.

Agents raided four locations in the Denver metro area in a series of pre-dawn raids Wednesday, a federal law enforcement source told The Post.

DEA could be seen deploying flash-bangs outside one Denver apartment complex before sunrise.

According to the Rocky Mountain division of the DEA, the raid was a part of Homeland Security’s coordinated operations happening across the metropolitan area on that particular morning.

Feds were seen loading handcuffed suspects onto a bus parked outside at least one complex, according to Denver7.

Some agents were also reportedly seen at the Edge of Lowry and Cedar Run apartment complexes, the outlet reported.

The Edge, which is located in Aurora, had become overrun by Tren de Aragua gangbangers from Venezuela, who took over the building after it fell into disrepair.

One resident of The Edge told Denver7 that on Wednesday morning ICE agents “pounded on our door hard” and “yelled for us to open the door.”

A judge recently ordered the shutdown of the infamous apartment complex for posing an “imminent threat” to the community following a spate of TdA terror.

The Edge was the site of a viral video showing gun-toting gangbangers forcing their way into units before taking part in a fatal shooting.

TdA gangbangers also conducted a violent kidnapping at the complex, where they tortured a couple and burglarized their apartment for hours in December.

The raids in the suburb of 400,000 people came after Democratic Gov. Jared Polis dismissed local officials who raised the alarm about Tren de Aragua last fall.

When The Post asked Polis on Aug. 29 about allegations made by council member Danielle Jurinsky that the gang was taking over apartment complex, his spokesperson responded: “According to police intelligence this purported invasion is largely a feature of Danielle Jurinsky’s imagination.”

Last month, the feds nabbed dozens of TdA gangbangers partying at a “makeshift nightclub” outside Denver.

The bust of what the DEA called an “invite-only party” netted cash, weapons, guns and drugs — including Tusi or “pink cocaine,” a trademark narcotic trafficked by the Venezuelan gang.

The operations are part of President Trump’s mass deportation efforts and follow his campaign promise of carrying out “Operation Aurora” to round up TdA gangbangers in the area.

Trump also recently announced that the Maduro regime has agreed to take back Venezuelan illegal migrants deported from the US, including TdA gangbangers, who have unleashed violent crime on at least 18 US states, including New York.

“We are in the process of removing record numbers of illegal aliens from all countries, and all countries have agreed to accept these illegal aliens back,” the president wrote on Truth Social on Saturday.

“Venezuela has agreed to receive, back into their country, all Venezuela illegal aliens who were encamped in the U.S., including gang members of Tren de Aragua,” Trump said.
