Police in Aurora, Colorado, are investigating an attack on a Venezuelan couple in a troubled apartment complex. 13-15 armed individuals held the couple hostage for nearly five hours, assaulting and terrorizing them. The man was stabbed but is expected to survive. Authorities believe the attack is related to gang activity and suspect the perpetrators are Venezuelan nationals, possibly members of the violent Tren de Aragua gang.
Más de una docena de personas ataron, golpearon y aterrorizaron a un hombre y una mujer en un problemático complejo de apartamentos ubicado en un suburbio de Denver, informó el jefe de policía de la ciudad el martes, añadiendo que aparentemente se trata de un ataque relacionado con actividad de pandillas contra dos inmigrantes venezolanos.
Sin embargo, subrayó que la localidad, de unos 400,000 habitantes situada al este de Denver, no está infestada por el crimen organizado. Las víctimas fueron llevadas en contra de su voluntad hacia otro apartamento dentro del complejo mientras su apartamento era saqueado, dijo Chamberlain.
