A major drug trafficking and credit card scam bust in New York City led to the arrest of two members of the Tren de Aragua gang, Denyeer Aramillo Meneses, 23, and Edison Pena Angulo, 25. The duo was apprehended during a raid in the Bronx by a task force comprising the NYPD and US Homeland Security Investigation. A total of 15 suspected members of the gang were taken into custody following a lengthy investigation into narcotics trafficking and gang-related violence.

The arrest of Meneses and Angulo was a significant breakthrough in a case involving a violent apartment invasion in Aurora, Colorado, where the gang members were allegedly involved in a burglary that was captured on camera and went viral. Local police in Aurora had issued warrants for their arrest on October 1st, but somehow they managed to make their way to New York City where they were apprehended in the early hours of Wednesday.

The investigation into the gang’s activities revealed a drug trafficking ring operating from the Bronx to lower Manhattan. They were found to be selling various drugs including heroin, fake weed, and the synthetic drug Tussi, in addition to engaging in credit card fraud and violent activities. During the raid, law enforcement also discovered a cache of semi-automatic weapons including assault rifles, pistols, and ammunition.

In the Aurora case, Meneses and Angulo have been charged with first-degree burglary and menacing with a firearm. The incident at The Edge at Lowry Complex apartments involved the suspects threatening the residents with firearms after forcibly entering their apartments. The escalation of gang-related violence in Aurora has sparked fear among residents and led to some deciding to move out of the area.

The influx of migrants and gang members from Venezuela has raised concerns in Aurora, with reports of gang members taking over apartment complexes and creating a hostile environment for residents. The situation has escalated to the point where some apartment buildings have been shut down due to code violations caused by the presence of gangs.

The arrest of the Tren de Aragua gang members in New York City is a significant step towards curbing their criminal activities and ensuring the safety of residents in both Aurora and the Bronx. The collaborative efforts of law enforcement agencies have played a crucial role in dismantling the drug trafficking ring and preventing further violence in the communities affected by gang activity.
