In a major victory for law and order, federal narcotics agents arrested approximately 50 illegal aliens during a high-stakes drug trafficking raid in Adams County, Colorado, on Sunday.

According to officials, many of those apprehended have ties to the notorious Venezuelan gang, Tren de Aragua.

The Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) Rocky Mountain Division, in collaboration with metro Denver law enforcement agencies and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), and Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) Denver, executed the early morning raid at an illegal makeshift nightclub operating in the area.

Federal authorities reported the seizure of substantial quantities of illicit drugs, firearms, and large sums of cash, underscoring the growing criminal threat posed by illegal immigration.

DEA Rocky Mountain Division confirmed the operation on social media, posting on X: “DEA and federal/local partners conducted an early morning operation at a makeshift nightclub in Adams County. Drugs/weapons/cash seized. Approx. 50 illegal aliens were taken into custody by ERO Denver – many are connected with the Tren de Aragua (TdA) gang from Venezuela.”

Officials described the operation as targeting a secretive “invite-only” venue used by gang members to orchestrate their criminal enterprises under the cover of nightlife activity.

Authorities stated that a large transport bus was required to remove the nearly 50 illegal aliens detained at the scene.

The Tren de Aragua gang, originally formed in Venezuela’s prison system, has rapidly expanded its criminal network across the Americas, engaging in drug trafficking, human smuggling, and violent crimes, thanks to Joe Biden oepn bordr.
