A spike in violent crime associated with the massive influx of undocumented migrants has been a common concern voiced by Donald Trump and various other conservative voices who favor strong border security and immigration laws. Now, the city of Aurora, Colorado, is the scene of a shocking incident that highlights the perceived need for a swift crackdown on illegal border crossings. According to Fox News: Potential gang activity was caught on surveillance camera in a Colorado apartment building after what one former resident calls “no accountability” kept law enforcement from assisting. The video shows many men armed with handguns, and one with a scoped rifle, bursting through the door of the apartment complex for unknown reasons. The group appears to be Tren de Aragua, or TdA, a transnational gang based out of Venezuela. The gang, with reportedly 5,000 members, has a motto of “real until death,” or “real hasta la muerte.” TdA is now linked with over 100 crimes across the nation, according to reporting from the New York Post.

The Venezuelan gang, Tren de Aragua, has even taken control of apartment complexes in the city, according to Aurora City Council Member Danielle Jurinsky. “We currently have entire complexes under gang control — complexes where staff have been beaten up, they’ve been threatened, their families have been threatened [and] complexes where there are no staff left on the property. These complexes are being run by this Tren de Aragua gang,” said Jurinsky. “They start brokering apartments themselves when someone leaves out of fear or whatever. They go in and take pictures of the apartment themselves,” she continued. “Then, I’ve been told, within hours, a Venezuelan family moves in.” Here’s some mainstream media coverage of Aurora’s broader crime problem: But don’t worry Colorado…. You have a great Governor. I’m sure this guy has it all under control: These are not serious people….
