Colorado: Although Denver's suburbs don't share its sanctuary city policies, the influx of illegal migrants into the Mile High City has spilled outward. Now, its neighbors are facing an unprecedented wave of activity from a notorious Venezuelan prison gang. 

Officials from Aurora, about nine miles east of Denver, told Fox News Digital the Tren de Aragua gang has gained a strong foothold in their city, commandeering apartment complexes and drumming up violent crime and sex trafficking. 

"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," Aurora City Council Member Danielle Jurinsky said. "These complexes are being run by this Tren de Aragua gang.

Joe Gamaldi, national vice president of the Fraternal Order of Police, told Fox News Digital, "This is not a Denver problem or an Aurora problem. This is a nationwide problem."

"There are gangs from all over South America that are coming over here and getting a foothold in our country," he said Monday. "We have taught criminals that you can commit crimes without being held accountable, and everyone is surprised when that’s exactly what they do."
