Shocking video shows Venezuelan gang beating Colorado property manager to a pulp

Shocking video shows Venezuelan gang beating Colorado property manager to a pulp

A Colorado property manager was allegedly beaten up by a Venezuelan gang that took over his building.

Shocking video captured the brutal attack at the Aurora complex, which left the manager needing hospital treatment.

The apartments have drawn national attention in recent months amid reports they were occupied by Tren de Aragua, a violent Venezuelan gang.

The manager’s employers, CBZ Management, shared footage of the 2023 beating as evidence of the crisis, which they blame on the government.

CBZ said the manager was attacked because he refused to accept a $500 bribe after discovering a group of migrants occupying an empty apartment.

In the clip, the manager, dressed in a white shirt, is seen talking to a group of three men in the corridor.

They suddenly lunge at him, unleashing a flurry of punches and kicks.

At one point, one of the men can be seen repeatedly punching the manager who is in a heap on the floor.

CBZ said the horror continued after the attack, with the manager sending threatening text messages.

“We also often find people illegally occupying unoccupied apartments during scheduled visits,” they said in a statement.

“This was initially attributed to an influx of migrants exploiting squatter laws.

“We even received a call from a tenant returning from vacation, only to find strangers living in their apartment. This legitimate tenant was forced to find a new home after the police were unable to help him.’

Resort owners shared the video in an attempt to answer Aurora officials' claims that there is no problem.

The company lashed out at officials trying to discredit reports of gang activity or blame them for the problem.

Aurora Mayor Mike Coffman called CBZ “out-of-state slumlords” as he flatly denied the claims.

“I just don’t think they’re credible,” Mayor Coffman said. “I mean, I think before the migrant crisis, they didn’t maintain these buildings, and we were in court with them before the migrant crisis.”

The allegations were also dismissed by ABC News anchor Martha Raddatz during an interview with vice presidential hopeful JD Vance.

However, as DailyMail.com revealed earlier this week, the gang has also terrorized other US cities.

CBZ claim they are left to fend for themselves, with no assistance at the municipal, state or federal level.

‘WWe were left helpless, watching as violence, bullets and destruction took over our buildings,” the company said. “Many of our legitimate tenants fled in fear.

“Despite the obvious crisis, several municipal officials refused to recognize the reality.

Owners CBZ Management say they have asked city officials for help in dealing with the problem, which they blame on the migrant crisis.

“Instead, they blamed us, citing ‘code violations’ as a reason to close our property, violations we couldn’t resolve for tenants who weren’t even ours.

“Despite the clear evidence, many still deny the reality of the situation, sometimes using us as scapegoats. That’s why we don’t stay silent anymore.

“We will continue to counter falsehoods with simple facts and evidence.”
