Hey @DenverPolice I have multiple sources confirming TdA takeovers of apartments in Denver. Cedar Run Apartments - 800 S Oneida.The Villages at Gateway - Albrook & Peoria.Atrii Apartments - 5100 Leetsdale. Perhaps our definition of “take over” is different. What’s yours?.
STATEMENT FROM #DENVER POLICE: The Denver Police Department takes the presence of Tren de Aragua seriously, and protecting the safety of our residents and our officers is always our top priority.

One more layer to the story…. the @CityofDenver is paying for migrants leases in some of these buildings . TAXPAYERS are paying for gang members to live rent free in apartments they are trashing. Remember that when @MikeJohnstonCO asks for more of our money.
A few people have asked me to check out ViVe and Papagayo because that’s who is placing migrants in leases all over metro Denver. The city of Denver has contracts with both ViVe and Papagayo for rental assistance for migrants for the Denver Asylum Seekers Program (DASP).
