The bone-chilling video of a gang of gun-wielding men holding an apartment in Colorado hostage has gone viral as the footage is not new and was captured shortly before a shootout at the complex in which several were left injured. According to reports, the cops have officially not confirmed whether there was a Venezuelan gang behind this but locals suspected it to be the work of the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua mob which have taken over many apartment complexes in the area.
What happened at the Colorado apartment?
It is believed that the viral video shows a Venezuelan migrant gang in action. The apartment has become a crime hotspot in the past few weeks. In the viral video, armed men, some wearing hoodies can be seen knocking on a door with 301 written on it. Another video shows a man was breaking down the door of an apartment.
A couple who moved out of the complex prompted by the spurt of illegal activities in the apartment said a large of migrants moved into the building recently. Then the shootout happened and now many residents are thinking of shifting out from the apartment. The viral video was captured by the couple. They said they were using five locks on their doors to keep their flat safe from any barge-in. In the shoot out, their car was riddled with bullets.

Aurora City Council member Danielle Jurinsky said there has been an influx of the members of the Venezuelan prison gang in the suburb. “The city nonprofits have lined up to help the migrants that have come here but nobody is helping the Americans that are trapped in these apartment complexes,” Jurinsky told a news station. “[And] this isn’t just Americans. Other Venezuelans are being extorted by this gang.”
Aurora police issued a statement confirming that they are investigating the chilling new footage of the apartment takeover.
