(Crankers) Aurora police have their hands and jails full after a sweeping bust found the cops detaining 14 suspects. There was a report of a home invasion that involved weapons, so the cops showed up to the scene – the same apartment complex where a viral video showed alleged gang members tormenting people. When the cops showed up, the didn’t expect to see something so terrifying.
It was around 2:30 in the morning and the cops were at The Edge at Lowry apartments, detaining at least 14 suspects linked to home invasions and kidnapping. The suspects had even moved victims from one building to another on the same property. The victims were reportedly tied up, assaulted, burglarized, and one was also stabbed. The wound turned out to be non-life-threatening, according to a crime news report on CBS News. The report further said:
The victims were held against their will, they were bound, both the male and the female, they were pistol-whipped, they were beaten, they were victimized, they were terrorized,” said Aurora Police Chief Todd Chamberlain during a news conference on Tuesday morning.
During the time they were held, Chamberlain said the suspects went to the victims’ apartment and “burglarized and took over that apartment… taking items of value that belonged to the victims.” Police said the victims were held for several hours until they convinced the suspects to release them, promising to not call authorities.
Victims were set free just around 2am. They left the property, went to a friend’s place, and called the cops. This was a terrifying ordeal for everyone involved. Once the cops arrived, they interviewed the victims and detained at least 14 suspects. The report added more information about the city and if the suspects were part of the gangs mentioned in the news:
“This is an incredibly problematic complex, it is an incredibly crime-riddled complex that I think we have been focusing on, the City of Aurora has been focusing on, and without question, attention will not stop until every individual who victimizes somebody else will be held accountable or be removed from that complex,” said Chamberlain.
The Aurora Police Department has not clarified whether the suspects are tied to a gang from Venezuela however Chamberlain did say they will find out if the suspects involved in the kidnapping and assault are affiliated with that gang.
