Americans are humming a new tune that could rid the nation of Trump

Think back eight years.

It’s 2016, toward the end of the summer. Do you remember what was the most popular song in the nation?

No?

It was Drake’s “One Dance.” Blink. Blink. Blink.

For those whose musical tastes swing further toward the pop-top dial on the radio, it might have been Justin Bieber’s, “Love Yourself.”

It’s true. You can look it up.

Long before any of us outside of Microsoft’s inner circles could even fathom what “AI” was, Donald Trump was actually the GOP nominee for president, and Bieber was singing softly in the background.

And look where all that got us.

In the last eight years, we have been drowning in a sea of Donald Trump. By 2020, the only thing still funny about Trump was the parody of his hair, his mechanical T-Rex arms and his nonsense on Saturday Night Live.

Jumping off the cliff of the pandemic, American voters in 2020 essentially chose “Anyone But Trump,” and the only one on the ballot was Joe Biden.

The song of the summer was DaBaby’s “Rock Star.”

Blink. Blink. Blink.

That was Roddy Ricch’s world of COVID masks lying in the grocery store parking lots, zombies and Black Lives Matter protests.

OK, how about Post Malone’s “Circles”and the Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights?”

I know. That was four years ago. By the end of the summer, wideeyed voters chose a nice old man over four more years of Trump’s White House reality show gone off the rails.

And now, here we are again. America is stuck in this endless fever dream of an elderly man that tints his face orange and says that Vice President Kamala Harris is faking being a Black woman is the top choice among Republicans to run for president.

No longer funny being parodied on late-night TV, he simply parodies himself.

“Has anyone noticed that Kamala CHEATED at the airport?,” Trump infamously posted on his home-brewed social media channel last week, falsely accusing Harris of using artificial intelligence software to pretend a crowd came to her plane during a Detroit campaign stop.

In reality, a huge crowd met her at her Air Force Two plane, documented by thousands of people and just about every national media group in the country.

He persisted.

“There was nobody at the plane, and she ‘A.I.’d’ it, and showed a massive ‘crowd’ of so-called followers, BUT THEY DIDN’T EXIST!.” he wrote.

“Look, we caught her with a fake ‘crowd.’ There was nobody there!”

He accused her of cheating the na-

tion out of reality so intensely that it was “election interference.”

Blink. Blink. Blink.

Just a few days later, he fumed over a New York Times poll revealing that Harris had pulled ahead of Trump in key swing states. It mirrors other recent polls.

“The NYT/Siena Poll has way over sampled Democrat voters, and way under sampled people who voted for me in 2020,” Trump posted on his vanity roll earlier this week. It appears he was referring to the same election he lost by about 8 million votes. “The Fake News York Times insisted they do this so that it would look as bad as possible in comparison to their last poll, which was very good for me, way up, and made the very biased Times look ‘stupid,’ just like in 2016.”

Blink. Blink. Blink.

As my daughter would say when I rattle and prattle and make no sense to anyone else but me, “That’s a nice story. Do you need a nap?”

And still, this guy, eight years after the nation paid the price for “anyone but Hillary Clinton,” is about to have his name printed on every election ballot in the country.

But there’s hope. Really.

An Associated Press-NORC poll released yesterday reveals that when it comes to qualities that most Americans appreciate in a president, Trump loses bigly.

The poll reveals that about 75% of Americans think that Harris is essentially honest, and only 25% of Americans feel that way about Trump.

There’s more.

“Nearly half of Americans say that “committed to democracy” and “disciplined” are attributes that better describe Harris,” the AP wrote. “About 3 in 10 say these qualities better describe

Trump.”

It would appear that eight years after we were humming along with Bieber and thinking, “there’s no way Trump will actually win in November,” we may be coming out of our national fever dream.

For the first time in a long time, not only does a majority of Americans know that Trump is a chronic liar and is rolling off the rails, but they care. That’s good enough for me.

I’m willing to overlook the fact that 25% of Americans — one person with you in the elevator when the door closed with you and two other people — believe that Trump is an honest, trustworthy and competent guy who cares deeply about the nation and not himself.

Blink. Blink. Blink.

For now, I’m good with news like that and listening to Harris and running mate Tim Walz appear in public without face-paint or abdominal constraints and waving T-Rex appendages, ranting about things so provably false that even toddlers listen to him and get that “blink, blink, blink” look on their faces.

I know. I know. We’re not there yet. But just hearing that a majority of Americans even care about reality and honesty and adulting from their elected officials is enough to buoy me to Election Day.

And in the background this time? Hoozier is crooning, “Too Sweet.” Beyonce is rocking the summer with “Ya Ya.” and we’re all singing along with Shaboozey being “tipsy” at “A Bar Song.”

Cheers, America.

Aurora and Denver can’t stem gun violence alone — they should work together

For generations, Aurora and Denver residents have been lamenting the scourge of gun violence among its teenagers and young adults, each year pledging to address it, and making little or no progress.

Months of building gun violence in the region culminated in so many shootings over the weekend that the tragedies were startling even among those who felt they were beyond being shocked.

“We average maybe five or six homicides a year,” said Commerce City Police Department spokesperson Joanna Small. “We’re now talking about four homicides and a person in critical condition in 39 hours.” She called it “an incredibly violent weekend.”

Just coming off an episode of a stolen car of teenagers shooting at police and then leading them on a chase across the eastern metroplex, Aurora tallied two more shootings over the weekend that left one person dead.

A dispute at an East Colfax Aurora nightclub parking lot turned deadly early Sunday when one person was fatally wounded and another person was injured, police said.

Miles away, one man was gravely injured by gunfire and another stabbed after an apartment parking lot party in northwest Aurora turned violent early Sunday, police said.

“Several people were gathered in the parking lot when there was an argument that became physical,” police said in a statement. “One man sustained multiple gunshot wounds.”

This week, police announced arrests in a case earlier this summer where a 17-year-old girl is accused of fatally shooting a 14-year-old girl and injuring two other teen girls during a party at a central Aurora park area.

Both Denver and Aurora report about 40-50 shooting deaths each year, and far more shooting injuries.

Aurora and Denver are both rudderless when it comes to navigating through the complex causes of rampant youth violence and finding solutions to address and end it.

Denver and Aurora city councils have both become quagmires of political inertia on a bevy of critical matters: police reform, homelessness, affordable housing, poverty and increasing crime and violence.

Denver programs are essentially reinvented and then stall. Aurora’s conservative city council majority is fixated on past “tough love” and “get tough on crime” policies that are tried and true for being ineffective at reducing crime.

Aurora has become a dysfunctional abyss for new ideas and momentum, often polarized by inter-animosity and partisan politics.

The victims of this political dysfunction are the millions of people who live in the greater metro area, subject to the whims of these two cities because of their sheer size and the momentum they create, or resist.

Aurora, Denver and the rest of the region can’t wait for good sense to return and improve the situation among elected local government leaders. The growing incidence of gun violence is dire and must be addressed now in ways these governments won’t rise to.

This is a problem that goes far beyond city borders and crosses every political line. A joint effort would provide real and widespread results.

We’ve pitched this before and believe more than ever, it could work. Aurora and Denver should create a select commission addressing youth violence.

Such a commission, relatively small and limited in time and scope, could rise above the apparently inescapable politics to provide meaningful answers for a region desperate for action.

The commission would be charged with only two goals: providing an understanding of why gun violence has become so prevalent in the region, and offering a short list of immediate and long-range ways to effectively address the problems that are identified.

While state elected officials should be part of the commission, they must be legislative representatives that live in the region, accountable to local constituents.

There are dozens of Denver and Aurora community activists and leaders who could provide targeted, limited and timely momentum to examine the scope of the problem and offer a handful of short-term and long-term possibilities.

Lives are being shattered and lost nearly every day leaders from these two critical communities put off providing meaningful and effective solutions. Don’t wait any longer.

Call it ‘The Kamala Conundrum’

Throughout her career, Kamala Harris has benefited from the support of friends in high places.

Michelle and Barack Obama’s recent endorsement of Harris for president is just the latest example.

Looking back, Harris’ political ascendancy is directly tied to her two-year dalliance with Willie Brown in the 1990s while he was Speaker of the California Assembly. The speakership is one of the state’s most powerful positions, which controls the legislative flow of bills that either do or don’t reach the governor’s desk. Married but separated, Brown was twice Harris’ age; he was 60 while she was just 29.

Brown appointed Harris to two coveted state panels, but his most valuable favors were to connect Harris to the Democrat party’s elites and deep-pocketed donors. Brown also actively promoted Harris’ campaigns, first for San Francisco attorney general, then California’s attorney general, and finally the U.S. Senate in 2016.

Immediately after her victory in one-party California, the always-friendly media began touting her as 2020 presidential timber. Harris’ announcement that she would compete for the presidential nomination originally generated enthusiasm, but the excitement soon fizzled out; Harris’ campaign was a complete bust. Her abrasive personality created constant staff turnover, and Harris dropped out without winning a single delegate. She blamed her failure on the lack of financial resources, which translates to an inability to convince donors that she would be a winner.

Harris is in the midst of a lovefest with the media which is furiously withholding the truth about her radical left record which, according to GovTrack. earned her the dubious most liberal senator title – further left than even Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren. Shortly after Harris entered the 2024 presidential race by default, GovTrack took its ranking down, one of the many coverups that will mark her presidential quest.

GovTrack’s trickery aside, the Internet is packed with her radical statements that include endorsing the American Families Plan, a nearly $2 trillion pre-K childcare package, and being an original co-sponsor of the Green New Deal. She also offered free four-year public college education for low-and middle income American students, continued funding for the unwinnable Ukraine-Russia war, pushed Medicare for all including illegal aliens, supported decriminalizing illegal immigration and maintaining sanctuary cities’ status, snd called for an end to the death penalty.

While she likes to portray herself as tough on crime, four months after Harris was sworn in as California’s attorney general in 2004, gang member David Hill shot

and killed police Officer Isaac Espinoza. Harris declined to charge the shooter with a capital offense, thus sparing him from the death penalty. Her decision rankled California’s political leadership, including California’s senior Sen. Dianne Feinstein, who called for Hill’s execution. Harris, a San Francisco progressive, will have to do some slick talking to wiggle out of her advocacy for those costly and unpopular political proposals. On immigration and the border, however, Harris has no escape route.

To make Harris more palatable to middle-of-the-road voters, her supporters insist she was never the “border czar.” They falsely claim Biden tasked her with identifying the root causes for the invasion. As the old political axiom goes, when candidates are explaining, they are losing. The indisputable fact remains that Harris never went to the border, had unproductive meetings with Northern Triangle leaders, and stood by to watch illegal immigration overwhelm major U.S. metropolises with murder, mayhem and fentanyl deaths.

The root cause for illegal aliens’ journey north is Biden’s and Harris’ refusal to enforce immigration law.

Even conservative media has done a dismal job reporting on the criminality inherent in open borders. To allow and encourage illegal immigration, as Biden and Harris have, violates the Constitution and is an impeachable offense. During the three and a half years of keeping the border open to a global influx of illegal aliens and rewarding them with work permission and other perks, Biden, Harris and Department of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas have initiated America’s demographic overhaul which would continue with a four-year Harris term.

Harris recommends that, to solve the border fiasco, illegal aliens residing in the U.S. be given “a meaningful path to citizenship” – an amnesty which would mean more chain migration. Princeton University scholars calculated that when immigrants become citizens, they petition on average three family members to join them in the U.S. They will either grow their existing families or start new ones, which means more urban sprawl, more natural resources depleted, and more competition for affirmative benefits.

Polling consistently shows that immigration is voters’ top concern. Harris’ election would mean four more years of the same open borders and the associated violent crime that has plagued the nation since Biden entered the White House.

FORCED OUT

HUNDREDS OF BLIGHTED-APARTMENT RENTERS IN AURORA STRUGGLE WITH WHAT COMES NEXT

Hundreds of tenants did as city government asked of them early Tuesday by moving out of what some council members insist was a gang-run apartment complex in northwest Aurora, while city code enforcers deemed it unsafe and uninhabitable.

But by Tuesday afternoon, dozens remained on nearby sidewalks with their suitcases and storage bins waiting for what city officials had promised — a safe place for them and their families to stay that evening, and for the rest of the month.

“Nowhere to go. We’re desperate,” Ernesto, a 38-year-old tenant said after being booted from the first home he, his wife and two young kids have known in the United States.

The former welder from the central-eastern Venezuelan city of La Paragua had, by way of several other countries and U.S. states, wound his way with his family to Aurora in March, fleeing the economic and political chaos in their country. They had been sharing a second-floor apartment in the complex at 1568 Nome St. since then with the family of a friend of his cousin.

Ernesto would not disclose his last name because he does not have immigration papers and fears deportation.

He was in a bind Tuesday and he sat a block from the building, waiting with other tenants for directions on where to go and what to do next. He said he felt uneasy with

the heavy presence of Aurora Police around the apartment complex because he worries they would profile him, inaccurately, as a gang member.

“No gang. Good guy. Good,” he said through a translator, his hands up as if to show he had nothing to hide.

“It’s insane that he even feels he needs to say that,” added an Anglo college student who volunteered with Spanish-to-English translation.

Aurora city officials notified residents last week that they must vacate the 98-unit complex by 7 a.m. Tuesday.

The owner and even officials within Aurora government differ in their accounts of why.

Denver-based Nome Partners LLC and its public-relations agent have told the Sentinel that Venezuelan gangs had effectively overrun his building. He said he had been pushing Aurora Police since September to help boot out people he claims are members of the Tren de Aragua (TDA) gang who had been squatting there and threatening his tenants and employees.

City staffers countered that the building was shuttered after more than two years of neglect and mismanagement that led to public safety and health violations. City manager officials have provided extensive city and court records documenting consistent and widespread rat, mice and cockroach infec-

tions, piles of garbage, dangerous electrical and plumbing issues among other health and safety problems they say went unaddressed by the owners and their property management company, CBZ Management, for too long.

“Let us be clear, the blame for this unfortunate circumstance rests solely with CBZ Management and its principals, the owners and managers of the property, who have repeatedly failed their tenants for years by allowing the building and property to fall into a state of complete disrepair,” city spokesperson Ryan Luby said in a statement.

Still, at least three council members say they do not believe their own city staffers’ reasons for forcing tenants out of the building.

“None of us buy that story, that this is based on a code enforcement violation,” Councilmember Danielle Jurinsky said during an Aug. 8 city council public safety committee meeting, referring to herself and council members Stepahnie Hancock and Steve Sundberg. “The three of us believe there is a huge gang problem.”

Jurinsky said that despite not having proof of the owner’s claims about gang members squatting in the building, “our opinions are not up for debate.”

On Tuesday, police cordoned off several blocks surrounding the complex until midday once the building’s power and

water were shut off. There was a chemical smell near the building, the result of what one police officer surmised were pest-control chemicals. At least three freshly dead squirrels were visible north and east of the building. Their carcasses, and the absence of trees or landscaping around the building, made its name, Aspen Grove, incongruous.

In media statements since last week, city officials assured the public that, on the city’s dime, it had offered all tenants hotel rooms through the end of August and additional help in finding housing.

But those claims seemed questionable Tuesday when several of the tenants said they had no such offers and no city social services workers were visibly on site to help those families sitting with their belongings on sidewalks near the building.

Olivia Sanders and colleagues from the East Colfax Collective — a nonprofit helping residents and businesses at risk of displacement in the quickly gentrifying area — worked to place tenants like Ernesto and his family in hotel rooms. She said city officials had promised 85 rooms on Monday evening, but by Tuesday afternoon had come up with only 59.

“Let’s just say the city could be far more helpful,” she said.

Tenants booted out of an apartment complex deemed uninhabitable by Aurora city government Tuesday lined up for a nonprofit group’s help finding hotel rooms the city had promised them, but hadn’t yet provided.

AROUND AURORA

Police-shooting protest back at Aurora City Council, but with less rancor

Aurora’s City Council made it through its first uninterrupted meeting Monday in almost two months without retreating behind closed doors to block out protesters.

At the insistence of Councilmember Crystal Murillo, Mayor Mike Coffman let all 23 people who signed up to comment at Monday evening’s public meeting say their piece. Most had come, as they have every council meeting since June 24, to renounce the May 23 shooting of Kilyn Lewis, an unarmed Black man shot by Aurora SWAT Officer Michael Dieck on May 23. Lewis, 37, died two days later from his wounds.

Several of Lewis’s family members were among the speakers urging council members to force law enforcement to speed up their investigation, fire Dieck — who is on paid leave during the probe — and criminally charge him for Lewis’ killing.

City officials have explained, repeatedly, that’s not how police shootings are handled in Aurora, and that due process, as slow as it may be, must take its course.

“You guys should be very nervous, I’m coming for ya’ll,” Lewis’ wife, Anndrec Lewis, told the council.

“Do your job…” LaRonda Jones, Lewis’ mother, later added.

Other advocates for Lewis’s family asked council members to stand if they believed Lewis should still be alive. Noticing that Coffman and City Manager Jason Batchelor refused to do so, one speaker told them “your day in hell is coming soon.”

At the end of the meeting, Batchelor said he stayed seated not because of a lack of sympathy toward the family, but because as the city’s top administrator he is likely to have a hand in determining Dieck’s future on the force, and he has been advised to behave neutrally. Coffman made no comment.

At several meetings since June, some protesters exceeded their

allotted three minutes of speaking time, and Coffman reacted to their catcalls and insults by cutting public comments short and moving the proceedings to a secluded room where the council conducted its business via live-streaming rather than in person.

Because those who had signed up to speak on Monday stayed within their time limits, the mayor allowed the full hour of public comments, and then some, without cutting protesters off.

“All we want is to be heard. We attend the Aurora City Council meetings to raise awareness about the unjust murder of Kilyn E. Lewis. Tonight, we saw a glimpse of what we’ve been asking for,” Auon’tai M. Anderson, a former Denver School Board member who was among the protesters, posted on X (formerly Twitter) after the meeting.

Still, Anderson blasted Coffman and Batchelor for remaining “seated during this simple plea to their humanity.”

“We will return on the 26th,” he posted.

In other council news Monday, the majority conservative council approved an ordinance exempting Aurora from a new state law banning possession of firearms in government buildings. The measure will allow council members, city staff and the public to continue bringing concealed weapons to council meetings and other proceedings at city hall, which increasingly have been marked by vitriol, infighting and outbursts with and among the public.

The city previously banned unconcealed, or “open carry” guns from city hall in 2015, and will continue to do so.

Councilmember Curtis Gardner proposed the exemption as a symbolic reaction against increasing state gun control laws and as a matter of what he sees as local control.

The council also passed a resolution approving the purchase of 1,606 acres of the Badger Basin Ranch in Park County from Frank Wolthuis for $3,483,303. The land will be used to build the Wild Horse Reservoir. According to the project’s website, the reservoir “would store up to 93,000 acre-feet of water” and is “needed to improve Aurora Water’s system reliability and

resiliency; help expand its potable reuse to meet future water needs; and provide water management flexibility during droughts or system emergencies.”

The deal includes well rights, and will allow the city to take possession of the land in September.

In their non-voting study session, council members directed city staff to devise a plan to move domestic violence cases out of Municipal Court and into local county and district courts, beginning in July 2025.

There are about 2,400 active cases in the city, with 618 docketed in court, city officials say.

Mayor Pro Tem Dustin Zvonek has argued that shifting those cases out of the city’s jurisdiction would save tax dollars that could otherwise be spent prosecuting and adjudicating cases.

“I think it’s in Aurora taxpayers’ best interest,” he said Monday.

Councilmember Angela Lawson expressed concerns that the shift to county court could negatively impact victims and that cases could “fall through the cracks.”

“This is a big transition,” she said.

“I still don’t agree that it’s the right move,” added Councilmember Murillo.

Opponents of the shift see it as the council majority’s latest attempt to gut Aurora’s public defender’s office. They also counter that there are not enough county judges to hear domestic violence cases, that the plan has not had sufficient public input, and that the issue should be tabled until a new judicial district is created and a new district attorney takes office, both in January.

Aurora was one of the first cities in the nation to try domestic violence cases in municipal courts as a way to speed up justice for victims. Zvonek’s proposal comes after the passage of a new state law banning cities from dismantling their public defender units if they handle domestic violence cases in court.

equal to 30% of their monthly income.

Zvonek said he hopes the approach serves as a model for other cities.

In executive session Monday afternoon, the council discussed, among other issues, the recruitment of a new city attorney to replace Dan Brotzman, who stepped down earlier this summer after more than four years in that position.

The city has completed a national search for his replacement and council members are scheduled to interview finalists for the position later this month.

Shuttered Aurora apartment leaves migrant families scrambling to keep their kids in school

Carolina’s 8-year-old daughter had been excited about the start of school this week, but has spent the week in tears.

Police surrounded the family’s apartment building on Wednesday, making her late to class on the first day of school.

Carolina couldn’t keep the news from her daughter: The city is closing their apartment complex. They had to leave by Tuesday. Police and city officials gave the formal notice as kids were trying to make their way to the first day of school.

“School is an escape where she can forget about her problems here,” Carolina said. “But she’s scared. She keeps asking where we’re going to go.”

Carolina doesn’t have an answer.

smile.

“Children that young shouldn’t be exposed to that,” she added.

In a prepared statement, city officials said they “wholeheartedly recognize the burden and uncertainty” that has resulted, but said that “it would be irresponsible for the city to allow 1568 Nome St. to remain occupied for another two months in its current state.”

With less than a week to find a new home, Carolina said that many people without extended family or a car, will end up on the streets or in the city’s homeless shelters. And for children like her daughter, it will also likely mean missed days of school.

Aurora Public Schools hosted a resource fair for families at a former school building on Thursday. District officials would not confirm how many students are impacted by the building’s closure, but said in a statement they know many families are impacted.

“With our school year just starting, we know this is a difficult challenge for many of our families and we will continue to provide as many supports and resources as possible. It is critically important that our students continue to attend school every day, so that they are in a safe place to learn and to receive breakfast and lunch,” a spokesperson for the district said in a statement.

Carolina walks her daughter to Aurora’s Montview Elementary School, just a couple blocks away from the building. She enrolled her daughter there shortly after arriving in Denver in December.

Last school year, Aurora recorded receiving more than 1,500 students between October and the end of February who were new to the country.

AUGUST 16 8PM | 6202 BAND Taking You Back

Carolina is one of nearly 300 estimated people, mostly Venezuelan immigrants, living in the apartment building at 1568 Nome St. in Aurora. The city sanctioned the building for unsafe housing conditions, but residents like Carolina fear the city is targeting the building because of a recent shooting tied to gang violence. (The Sentinel and Chalkbeat aren’t using Carolina’s real name because she fears retribution in her immigration case.)

Mom fears the disruption is likely to interrupt children’s school.

Carolina and her daughter first left their home in Venezuela six years ago and moved to Colombia. She opened a small laundromat, but local gangs began extorting her. The insecurity pushed Carolina to leave home with her daughter once again — this time, with the goal of reaching the U.S.

After arriving in Colorado, Carolina was able to find work cleaning apartments. It allowed her to pay the $1,200 monthly rent at the sanctioned building.

Now the informal work is on hold while she figures out what she’s doing next.

Also in its study session, the council directed city staff to move forward drafting a plan to reduce homelessness the city. The proposal would not just provide temporary housing at a so-called “regional navigation center” on a hotel and convention center complex the city bought on Aurora’s northern border with Denver. It emphasizes mandatory addiction recovery, mental health treatment and job training programs that underscore the need for self-sufficiency.

It would take a three-tier approach. The first would provide participants with day shelter, meals, showers, laundry, pet shelter, mail, coaching, and case management.

The second would provide semi-private sleeping arrangements, personal storage, more meal options, less crowded facilities, and a dedicated case manager to participants engaged in treatment and job training programs.

The third would provide private rooms, cleaning and laundry services for up to two years to participants who manage to get jobs and are willing to pay a program fee

She and other families living in the building are pleading for the city to give them more time to figure out where to move. Residents and organization leaders believe there are at least 66 school-aged children in the building who attend Aurora schools and will be affected. Some other children are believed to attend Denver schools nearby.

Nadeen Ibrahim, an organizing director with the nonprofit East Colfax Community Collective, said that the city’s notice – timed for the first day of classes — was deeply upsetting for families.

“Honestly it was one of the most traumatizing sights I’ve ever seen,” Ibrahim, who has worked with other displaced families, said. “Kids were extremely terrified and crying. There’s been a lot of police present since and so they’re seeing a lot of weapons around the building and it’s just hard to find a reason to

She had issues with the building conditions and a few months ago started noticing what she now knows was gang activity, but kids don’t notice the bad living conditions, she said. They just know they have a place to go home to, she said.

Carolina didn’t buy a car because she didn’t want to drive without a license. And while she’s waiting on a work permit pending her asylum case, she has limited identification forms to get a license, or to complete paperwork for other forms of assistance.

month to find new housing, even when they do have credit, good income, and no accessibility issues. She said the city’s move to condemn such a large apartment building, without contacting any of the local nonprofits that assist beforehand, is “unprecedented.”

“The only thing we know that is definitive is that entire complex is going to become homeless Tuesday morning,” Ibrahim said. “This is directly negatively impacting children’s access to education. The children are going to be the most deeply impacted.”

City officials say they will cover the costs of new security deposits for families, but they must apply for that assistance after they secure housing.

Carolina just wants to find a way to provide stability for her daughter while she finds housing.

“It will be very disruptive for these kids,” Carolina said. “It’s complicated, but I just want the city to think about the kids who are the ones who suffer the most.”

State gas and oil panel OKs controversial Lowry Ranch project 3-1, opening 155 wells

The Colorado Energy and Carbon Management Commission on Aug. 7 ratified a hotly contested oil and gas drilling and fracking plan, approving on a 3-1 vote about 150 wells across 32,000 acres in unincorporated Arapahoe County, east of Aurora.

“We are devastated by the commission’s decision to approve the Lowry Ranch Comprehensive Area Plan,” said Marsha Goldsmith Kamin, president of Save The Aurora Reservoir. “This is without doubt the wrong decision for the health, safety, and environment of our community.”

Officials from Crestone Peak Resources, a subsidiary of Civitas gas and oil, have pressed for approval of the project for almost two years. Colorado law now provides for some local say in gas and oil extraction projects, and the state has raised environmental requirements for extraction.

STAR officials, and their petroleum and geology experts, have testified for months that there are known and unknown dangers to surface water, groundwater sources and the environment built into the Lowry Ranch project.

Specifically, STAR and some local and state officials balked at drilling under the nearby Denver Lowry Landfill, an EPA Superfund site.

Last year, Crestone modified its plan to accommodate the concerns, removing plans for drilling under the landfill.

Crestone officials, however, during commission hearings last week, pushed back against alleged threats from drilling laterally beneath the Aurora Reservoir, insisting that geological and environmental risks are few, and that company en-

gineers have a solid plan for ensuring project safety.

STAR officials said the group would continue to seek ways to monitor and restrict the project.

“We will continue to monitor the project and will elevate community concerns throughout the life of this comprehensive area plan,” said STAR founder Kevin Chan.

Industry experts testifying last week on behalf of STAR argued that the Lowry Ranch plan presents “major risks to public health, safety, the environment, and wildlife resources that are inadequately mitigated by the so-called “industry standard” practices they have proposed.”

Colorado state officials have “decided to take the industry’s word that they will make a best effort to protect people, wildlife, and the environment,” Goldsmith Kamin said in a statement. “We are not quite so trusting and will be closely watching to see if their actions match their words.”

Sierra Club officials also criticized the state commission approval of the project.

“Members of this community deserve access to healthy air and clean water, and shouldn’t have to live in fear of fracked gas operations beneath their homes and schools,” said Ben Jealous, Executive Director of the Sierra Club.

Besides moving through a variety of Arapahoe County reviews, proponents and critics of the Lowry Ranch project have participated in hours of hearings over the past three weeks, culminating in Wednesday’s 3-1 approval.

The Lowry Ranch Comprehensive Area Plan submitted by Civitas would facilitate the development of as many as 156 wells across 10 new or expanded well sites.

“The Lowry Ranch CAP is evidence of Civitas’ intention to develop this area in the proper and most protective manner,” said an attorney for the company, Jamie Jost, at a July 31 hearing. Jost said Civitas “fully recognizes and accepts the obligations to the communities that accompany its license to operate.”

Wells will extend horizontally beneath about 50 square miles of land controlled by the Colorado State Land Board, and Civitas would extract oil and gas using the technique of hydraulic fracturing, also known as fracking, which uses high-pressure jets of water, sand and chemicals to break apart rocks containing fossil fuels deep underground.

In the case of the Lowry Ranch project, the rock to be fracked is located more than a mile below the surface.

The project has long generated pushback from nearby Aurora residents concerned about the process polluting reservoir water and interfering with efforts to contain the groundwater and soil tainted by toxic waste that was dumped decades ago at Lowry.

STAR has repeatedly accused the oil and gas producer of taking only superficial steps to protect the environment.

“Mostly what we ask you, the commissioners, to consider throughout this hearing is whether this CAP actually protects public

health, safety, welfare, the environment and wildlife,” said attorney Michael Foote, representing the group. “It clearly doesn’t.”

Jost and others described how Civitas has changed the proposed layout of its operations to respond to concerns about sites being close to the reservoir and other sensitive areas, and also how it has agreed not to drill beneath the Lowry Landfill.

Individuals involved in the project also spoke about efforts to mitigate noise and plans to monitor the area around the wells for pollutants and impacts on wildlife, and stressed that well pads were thousands of

Classes have just started at all Aurora high schools, but the fall prep sports season is most definitely underway.

The full slate of offerings for the first of the three athletic seasons that comprise the 202425 prep school year were allowed to begin practice Aug. 12. Football, girls volleyball, boys soccer, softball, cross country, boys tennis, girls flag football, field hockey and gymnastics join boys golf, which began a week earlier, while Unified bowling, spirit and esports also are underway.

Softball and boys tennis can begin regular season play Aug. 15, followed by girls flag football on Aug. 17 and the remainder of sports and activities on Aug. 22.

Veteran Regis Jesuit wins Continental League boys golf opener by five strokes

Continental League play started in style for the Regis Jesuit boys golf team Aug. 8 with a fivestroke victory at King’s Deer Golf Club.

Coach Craig Rogers’ Raiders won the last league tournament of last season to finish as the Continental League runner-up and claimed the first league gathering of this season with a team score of 225, which put them atop a field that saw ThunderRidge (230) finish second and Legend (232) take third.

Regis Jesuit had the co-medalist of the meet in senior Sam Walker, whose even-par 71 put him in a tie for first with ThunderRidge’s Austin Hunt. Walker, a returning Class 5A state qualifier, had five birdies on the day and worked his way to as low as 4-under with four holes remaining before he recorded bogies on the last four.

Senior Ben Sander — who finished sixth at the 5A state meet last season — carded a plus-4 75 to tie for fifth, while junior Brady Davis had the third score with a 79. Senior Anthony Lore shot 80 and senior William Kellogg an 81.

Other Aurora boys golf teams begin competition with tournaments starting Aug. 14.

Poulter, U.S. women’s volleyball team finished with silver medal at Paris Olympics

Former Eaglecrest High School girls volleyball star Jordyn Poulter has added another international medal to her exceptional collection, as she helped the U.S. women’s indoor volleyball team to silver at the recently concluded Paris Olympics.

Poulter — who began to represent the country while she was a prep star with the Raptors and also during an All-American career at the University of Illinois — helped lead the American team to gold at the Tokyo Olympics held in 2021 and she was named the tournament’s top setter.

Back three years later and now a team captain, the 27-year-old Poulter again helped the U.S. team earn a chance to play for gold as the starting setter for all six matches. The Americans lost a five-set match to China in the opener of pool play, but then went on a 4-0 run that got them all the way into the final against Italy. The Italians won 25-18, 25-20, 25-17 victory Aug. 11 in Paris.

Poulter is the second athlete with area ties to medal in Paris, joining former Regis Jesuit swimmer Emma Weber, who got gold as a prelim relay swimmer in the women’s 4x100 meter relay.

Former Regis Jesuit ace David Peterson earns win for Mets vs. Rockies at Coors Field

Former Regis Jesuit High School star pitcher David Peterson made his first Major League Baseball start in his hometown when he pitched for the New York Mets Aug. 8 at Coors Field against the Colorado Rockies.

The left-handed Peterson, who was one of Colorado’s best prep pitchers when with the Raiders, continued a recent roll of strong outings as he allowed just one earned runs and struck out five batters in five innings of New York’s 9-1 victory.

Peterson — who was staked to a four-run lead by the Mets before he took the mound — earned the victory to up his record to 6-1 with a 3.34 ERA. The 28-year-old was New York’s first round pick (No. 20 overall) in the 2017 MLB Draft.

‘World in a City’

AURORA’S SIGNATURE GLOBAL FEST SERVES UP THE FLAVORS OF THE WORLD IN A SINGLE COMMUNITY

Aurora growing Global Fest is returning for its 11th year, promising an even more vibrant celebration of the city’s rich cultural diversity.

“Every year, Global Fest grows in size and attendance because it is unlike any event in Colorad,o” Mayor Mike Coffman said in a statement. “Aurora truly is ‘The World in a City,’ and Global Fest is the best place to experience it on display.”

The free, family-friendly event will take place on Saturday, August 17, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Aurora Municipal Center Great Lawn at 15151 E. Alameda Parkway.

This year’s Global Fest is set to be the largest yet, featuring an expanded lineup of performances, vendors, and activities. The festival celebrates Aurora’s status as one of Colorado’s most diverse cities, bringing together a mosaic of cultures through food, music, dance, and art.

The event will showcase two stages with performances ranging from Taekwondo demonstrations and Afro-fusion music to Mexican ballet folklorico and Taiwanese tea-picking dances. Notably, popular musical acts Gino Rael and the Mighty Nice Band, along with Son de la Zona, will close out the day with energetic performances designed to get the crowd on its feet.

Global Fest attendees will also have the opportunity to explore an international marketplace, sample cuisine from nearly 20 food trucks representing Central America, South America, Africa, Asia, and beyond, and participate in a variety of creative activities for children. For the first time, the festival will host a Global Flavors competition, with winners to be announced during the event.

Ricardo Gambetta, manager of Aurora’s Office of International and Immigrant Affairs, previously highlighted the importance of Global Fest in fostering community ties.

“Aurora is one of the most diverse cities in Colorado, with one in five people identifying as foreign-born, and we are proud to support our community. Global Fest is an inclusive showcase of our international cultures, and it is meaningful when we can share our traditions with others.”

The festival will open with a Parade of Nations, inspired by the Olympic Games’ opening ceremonies, featuring representatives from around the world displaying their national flags. This year, countries such as the Marshall Islands, Ukraine, Morocco, and Belize will be represented in the parade for the first time. A fashion show will also take place, featuring handmade traditional outfits from various cultures.

Aurora has long been recognized as a hub of diversity in Colorado. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, nearly 20% of the city’s residents were born outside the United States, with significant populations hailing from Mexico, Ethiopia, and other nations. Additionally, more than 40% of students in Aurora Public Schools speak a language other than English at home. Over the past several decades, Aurora has also emerged as a center of Colorado’s Black community, drawn by affordable housing and strong educational opportunities.

The growing attendance at Global Fest reflects the city’s evolving demographics and its reputation as an inclusive and welcoming community. Gambetta-Alvarado noted that what started as a small gathering has now become a major event, drawing thousands of attendees each year.

“As our community continues to grow and diversify, Global Fest remains the most important activity of the year for us,” Gambetta-Alvarado said previously. “It’s an opportunity for members from different groups and communities to celebrate that diversity together as a city.”

Aurora’s Global Fest promises to be a lively and inclusive celebration of the city’s global heritage, offering something for everyone in the family to enjoy.

Fazal Sheikh: Thirst | Exposure | In Place

Fazal Sheikh: Thirst | Exposure | In Place is an exhibition created from three projects photographer Fazal Sheikh made on the Colorado Plateau from 2017 to early 2023. Sheikh’s portraits and landscapes shed light on the far-reaching consequences of extractive industry and climate change.

The exhibition presents Sheikh’s recent work in three interrelated sections: Thirst is a new series of aerial photographs that document the decline of the Great Salt Lake in northeast Utah, which is shrinking due to overconsumption and dwindling rain and snowfall. Exposure examines the impacts of uranium, coal, oil and natural-gas extraction on the American Southwest and on its Indigenous inhabitants. In Place evokes the enduring landscapes of the Bears Ears region in Utah, bringing Sheikh’s photographs together with contributions from scientists and Indigenous communities in and around Bears Ears in southeastern Utah.

Visitors will reflect upon the transformation—and often devastation—of these landscapes in the context of the past, present and future, while considering the juxtaposition of beauty and catastrophe, as well as intimate, human-scale stories and those spanning vast geological eras and changes.

FLAGS ON THE FIELD

Exponential growth happening in girls flag football, which is on the cusp of the start of its first season as a sanctioned sport in Colorado

Until last year, Kiyah Enoch’s big athletic dreams had always been in the realm of track & field.

On The Cover: Grandview will be one of the first teams in Aurora and Colorado to begin the first sanctioned girls flag football season on Aug. 17.

Above: Smoky Hill junior Kiyah

Enoch has found a second athletic love in the form of girls flag football, which is one of the nation’s fastest-growing sports.

Enoch’s talent as a hurdler is unmistakable — the junior at Aurora’s Smoky Hill High School placed in the top eight in both events at the Class 5A state meet in the spring — but she may be on track to take an unexpected detour.

“I

Track & field may no longer be her ticket to college, as she is one of a growing number of female athletes around Aurora and across the country to fall in love with flag football, which is about to begin its first season as a sport officially sanctioned by the Colorado High School Activities Association.

“I used to say football was pointless,” Enoch said with a smile after a Smoky Hill practice Aug. 12. “My dad played football in college, but I just most ignored it because I’d known it for so long. But then I watched someone play flag football and I remember being inspired and thought I would just try it.

With that has come new opportunities in sports such as flag football, which offers female athletes the chance to compete in a sport that many of them watched growing up. They can do so without the possibility of violent contact that makes tackle football risky.

USED TO SAY FOOTBALL WAS POINTLESS. ...THEN I WATCHED SOMEONE PLAY FLAG FOOTBALL AND I REMEMBER BEING INSPIRED.”

- KIYAH ENOCH, SMOKY HILL JUNIOR

“Now that there are scholarships for it, I’m trying to get one for that as well.”

New dreams continue to be unlocked for young female athletes such as Enoch, who find themselves in an era of unprecedented interest in women’s sports (which has been boosted by the rise of the WNBA as well as high profile performances of women’s teams and individuals at the Paris Olympics).

It’s a sport that appeals to serious athletes, but there’s no prerequisite.

“This is a sport for everybody,” Smoky Hill coach Augustine Agyei said. “We’ve had athletes from basketball, field hockey, soccer or really any field sport. ...You can put almost anybody on the field, especially with the way it is set up right now.”

On top of that for the current group of those involved is the chance to be part of history. When the season begins on Aug. 17, those who suit up for the 64 teams across Colorado — which will include 11 in the Aurora area — will be trailblazers in the state.

“Everybody was super excited (when the sport was sanctioned),” Regis Jesuit senior Catherine Eure said. “I think it’s really important and special for us to grow.”

This could just be the beginning for some Colorado preps in a sport that now has scholarship possibilities (22 schools at the NAIA level have women’s flag football) and has been tabbed for inclusion in the 2028 Olympics.

THE BIG APPROVAL

The historic vote came on April 23, when the Colorado High School Activities Association Legislative Council overwhelming approved a proposal to sanction girls flag football by a 57-9 count.

That brought Colorado into the now double-digit fold of states that offer girls flag football as a sanctioned prep sport, as it joined Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Nevada and New York, while the National Federation of High School State Associations (NFHS) notes that 17 other states have the sport in various stages of pilot status.

Led by Bobby Mestas — Director of Youth and High School Football Development —the Denver Broncos have been big backers of the sport’s rise locally. A day after the sanctioning vote, the Broncos held a news conference at Empower Field to celebrate in the end zone, so to speak.

“It’s a historic day and a historic moment for our state,” CHSAA Commissioner Mike Krueger said at the press conference. “I’m proud to live and serve in a state that leads the country in the participation of high school female athletes. By offering this as a sanctioned sport, we’re not only offering expanded opportunities for young women and their personal growth and success, but we are also fostering a culture of inclusivity and empowerment that reverberates far beyond the field with generations that have yet to come.”

Broncos’ owner Carrie Penner, team president Damani Leach plus Mestas and Ally Engelken (vice president of community impact and executive director of the Denver Broncos Foundation) all spoke to momentous nature of adding another option for female athletes.

It was a lengthy process filled with overcome hurdles, but one that has paved a bright future.

“It matters for all of those who love football, but have never seen a place for herself,” Penner said. “It matters for every student who has watched others find their passion and for other students looking for her community. This matters.”

Clearly it matters around the country.

A recent Associated Press quoted research from USA Football that detailed that between 2014 and 2022, the participation rate in flag football for girls 6-12 increased by 178%. NFHS numbers indicate that around 500,000 girls between the ages of 6-17 play the sport across the country, which is well over double the number from 2019. That should only continue to climb due to the wide-reaching appeal.

“It might grow in certain areas faster than otheres, but once it starts, it’s going to grow fast,” Grandview athletic director Wes Smock said after he attended the Empower Field press conference.

“Providing more opportunities for kids to be engaged in school is what we’re after. It’s an opportunity, that’s the bottom line.”

Opportunities have become much more plentiful recently, as CHSAA has recently sanctioned girls wrestling and boys volleyball as well as Unified bowling and all have been well received.

BUILDING FROM SCRATCH

Larry Bull remembers the day at All-City Stadium in 2022 like it was yesterday.

The longtime athletic director of Cherry Creek Schools is among those with the memory of the first jamboree-style girls flag football tournament that took place on the campus of Denver South High School etched in his memory.

Only three school districts piloted the sport at its beginning — Cherry Creek Schools, Denver Public Schools and Jefferson County Schools — and the players and coaches embraced it with infectious enthusiasm. Though the play and strategy began at a very basic level, the passion shined through.

“I don’t think there is anything that would have made us question why were doing this. ...Once we got it off the ground, the excitement of the participants was amazing,” Bull recalled.

“At All-City Stadium when the teams lined up on the field for a picture — which was also the 50th anniversary of Title IX — I knew we had something special.”

Flag football helped fill a void of participation as sports tried to rebound following the devastating effects of the coronavirus pandemic. With very little close quarter contact and a small amount of equipment needed, it became something that could be organized quickly.

Mestas and the Broncos were glad to do much of the heavy lifting in the process from setting up tournaments to securing officials and providing proper equipment, but they needed the buy-in of participants to make it

“Thanks to the school districts that took a chance,” Mestas said. “Without the courage to do that, we’d have no place to start. Getting off to a good first year was crucial and once we had that under our belt, we were able to double in size and felt like we were prepared to grow.”

The popularity grew from there and the Broncos estimated that more than 1,500 girls played the sport in 2023 in a pilot season and that was still with several schools not yet fielding teams.

Last season concluded with a 16-team playoff that ended with Arvada West defeating Cherry Creek in a game played at the Pat Bowlen Fieldhouse at the Broncos’ Center Health Training Center.

With now a whopping 64 teams set to compete in 2024 — which will be split evenly between Classes 4A and 5A, with 20 teams set to qualify for the postseason in both classifications — those numbers will rise significantly.

Bull also pointed out that with the approval of the sport will naturally come desire to be the best.

“Just like when any sport is approved, the competition piece is increased, so that will be something else to watch for this season,” he said.

With sanctioning comes the need to make adjustments in order to comply with NFHS rules.

Girls flag football in Colorado will look different than it did during its pilot period, where multiple games could be held horizontally on a regulation-sized football field. That won’t be possible under the new field dimensions, which will span 40 yards wide by 80 yards long with 10 yard end zones at both ends.

Seven players on each side will be on the field with the offensive team attempting to move forward across three lines to gain (where they get first downs) with the goal of scoring a touchdown, which is worth six points. Flag football does not have kicks, so teams will have the option to go for one point (getting a possession from the 3 yard-line) or two (getting a possession from the 10 yard-line).

A game will be played over 48 minutes (four 12-minute periods) plus a 10-minute halftime.

The regular season will consist of a maximum of 15 contests ahead of the postseason, which still has several details to be worked out by CHSAA.

GAME DAY

With standalone games dominating the schedule in place of the multiple-team jamborees of the pilot era, it will give student bodies a chance to get behind their flag football teams like any other sport. Creative scheduling can help with that as

is the case with Regis Jesuit, which already has a huge parochial school rivalry in place with Valor Christian. The rivalry is especially heated in tackle football with games that regularly pack the stands. This season, the girls flag football game will take place before the boys game on Aug. 30 at Valor Christian, which should give both teams a chance to show what they are capable of.

“There’s usually a big tailgate (at Valor), so we’re hoping to have a big audience for that one,” Regis Jesuit senior Alexiah Toval said.

feet from homes and complied with legal guidelines.

Jost and Christel Koranda of the state land board also pointed out tin July that funds raised by the land board’s lease to Civitas would benefit schools, including those in Arapahoe County, with Jost calling the property a “prime location” for that reason.

Foote countered by saying the information supplied by Civitas pertaining to the environmental impacts of the project was not trustworthy and that it was impossible to verify some of the data, including data on the seismic activity that could result from fracking.

He also said the company was not specific enough when describing how it will test groundwater and manage truck traffic, and he urged the commission to reject or at least stay the plan.

“The commission’s mission is to protect public health, safety, welfare, the environment and wildlife, and this cap application just doesn’t do that,” Foote said.

Resident pushback prompted U.S. Rep. Jason Crow to pen a July 15 letter to the Environmental Protection Agency in which he asked how the Civitas project might impact the containment of polluted water and soil beneath the Lowry Landfill and what a “scientifically-based” buffer zone around the site would look like.

The cleanup of the former landfill site has been facilitated in part by the agency’s “Superfund” program.

KC Becker — administrator of the EPA’s Region 8 — which includes Colorado, responded to Crow’s letter on Tuesday, writing that the agency wasn’t aware of comparable fracking proposals near Superfund sites and that it had pushed Civitas not to develop under the landfill.

However, Becker said the agency was “confident that contamination at the site is contained and that the remedy remains protective of human health and the environment.”

Bevy of fatal weekend shootings jolt Commerce City, Denver and Aurora

Four men were fatally shot and a woman was hospitalized with gunshot wounds during a spate of weekend violence in Commerce City, Aurora and Denver.

A person of interest in one of the cases was later found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot, police said Aug. 11.

Also, a person was fatally shot and three others were injured during a pair of altercations early Aug. 11 in Aurora, officials said.

In Denver, one person was killed among a string of weekend shootings and stabbings, police said.

Commerce City Police Department spokesperson Joanna Small described it as “an incredibly violent weekend” for the fast-expanding community of about 70,000 people.

“We average maybe 5 or 6 homicides a year,” she said. “We’re now talking about four homicides and a person in critical condition in 39 hours … The fact that the crimes are not related is even more baffling, really.”

Potential motives in the shootings were not released.

The first happened Friday night, Aug. 9, in the parking lot of a Commerce City 7-Eleven convenience store. A man and a woman were shot, and the man later died. The woman remained hospitalized in critical condition as of Sunday morning, Small said.

Officers later tried to contact a man who had been driving a truck involved in the shooting, but he fled and was found dead as a result of suicide on Sunday morning.

On Saturday evening, Aug. 10, a man was fatally shot in the parking lot of a public park with a pool in Commerce City. A person was taken into custody but Small declined to give further details.

Later that night, officers responded to shots fired during a gunfight that was detected by Commerce City’s gunshot monitoring

system. The officers encountered a stolen vehicle with three people that fled and later crashed, according to the authorities. A male passenger with a gunshot wound was found dead inside the vehicle.

A second passenger and the driver were injured in the crash and taken into custody. Officers returning to the scene of the gunfight found a male who had been shot dead in the yard of a residence, Small said.

The victims and others in that case were believed to be juveniles, she said.

There was no known connection between the shootings at the convenience store, the park and in the residential neighborhood, Small said. She declined to give further details, citing pending investigations.

In Aurora, a dispute at an East Colfax Aurora nightclub parking lot turned deadly early Aug. 11 when one person was fatally wounded and other person was injured, police said.

Officers were called to Las Adelitas Night Club, 11249 E. Colfax Ave., at about 1:45 a.m. after reports of a shooting.

“Officers located a gunshot victim in the parking lot,” police said. “Officers attempted life-saving actions, but the victim died at the scene.”

A short time later, police were notified that a second gunshot victim had “self-transported” to a nearby hospital “for treatment of multiple gunshot wounds.”

“That victim, a 34-year-old man, is expected to survive,” Police said. “No arrests have been made and there is no suspect information at this time.”

No other details were released.

Also, one man was gravely injured by gunfire and another stabbed after an apartment parking lot party in northwest Aurora turned violent early Aug. 11, police said.

Police were called at about 1:30 a.m. to a large apartment complex at 13798 E. Fourth Ave. after reports of a shooting there.

“Several people were gathered in the parking lot when there was an argument that became physical,” police said in a statement. “One

man sustained multiple gunshot wounds.”

The unidentified man was taken to a local hospital and sustained “life-threatening injuries” from the shooting, police said.

“A second man was stabbed during the altercation,” police reported. “He was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.”

Police said one person was detained, but they did not detail whether that person is a suspect in either of assaults.

4 teens accused of shooting at Aurora police and eluding officers in a stolen car

Police say they’ve arrested four teenage minors accused of stealing a car in Aurora, shooting at police who tracked down the vehicle and then led officers from Denver and Aurora on a car chase across both cities.

The incident began at about 8 p.m. Aug. 8 when the owner of gray Kia called Aurora dispatchers to report it as stolen from their garage at a home on the 24200 block of East Mexico Avenue.

“The caller was tracking the stolen vehicle’s movements through a GPS monitoring system,” police said in a statement.

About an hour later, officers in an unmarked police car located the Kia near East 17th Avenue and Trenton Street in Denver.

“Officers followed the vehicle to the area of 21st Avenue and Ulster Street, at which point multiple shots were fired at police from the stolen Kia,” police said.

The unmarked police car was struck with a bullet, in addition to two nearby parked cars.

“Fortunately, the officers were not injured, and the two parked vehicles were unoccupied at the time of the shooting,” police said.

The officers said they took cover from the gunfire and did not shoot back as the driver of Kia sped away.

The officer pursued the car, and

Denver police joined the chase as it wound through Green Valley Ranch and Aurora.

“Officers attempted to disable the stolen vehicle with a Precision Immobilization Technique, or PIT maneuver, near the intersection of Tower Road and Montview Boulevard, which was unsuccessful,” police said.

Shortly after, one of the Kia’s car tires went flat.

“The suspects abandoned the vehicle in the 1700 block of Cathay Court and ran from police,” police said.

Officers from both cities searched for the suspects after they fled the car, detaining four juveniles.

“The four suspects are in custody at an Arapahoe County juvenile detention facility and are all being held on charges of two counts of attempted first-degree murder, and one count each of second-degree burglary and aggravated motor vehicle theft,” police said.

Police said one suspect is 15, and the other three are 16. One of the teens is from Denver and the other three are from Aurora.

“Investigators from numerous Aurora Police Department units responded to assist with the preliminary investigation, gathering evidence from three separate scenes that included the recovery of over 20 shell casings believed to be fired at police by the suspects, as well as multiple firearms,” police said.

Acting Aurora Deputy Chief Chris Juul said wanton violence like this is intolerable.

“The Aurora Police Department does not and will not tolerate acts of violence committed against the men and women who are dedicated to keeping our community safe, and that includes our law enforcement, fire and emergency medical service partners here and throughout the metro area” Juul said. “As evidenced by the substantial, multi-agency response to last night’s attack on our officers, we will dedicate all our resources to ensure those who are responsible are identified, captured and successfully prosecuted.”

By early evening Tuesday, the city claimed it had identified enough hotel rooms for any evacuees who wanted them.

“Everybody now has rooms,” said Aurora spokesperson Ryan Luby.

Ernesto, in the meantime, said by phone early Tuesday evening that he and his family had yet to be offered a room.

The four-story blond brick complex on Nome Street sits five blocks from the Anschutz Medical Campus, a redevelopment much touted by Aurora officials as evidence of the city’s renaissance. The contrast between the glass condos and cyber cafés south of the medical center with the apartment complex to its west was glaring Tuesday afternoon as its displaced

Christine Martin said she paid $1,000 a month to live in the building for a year and a half until a few weeks ago, when she said the bed bugs and roaches prodded her to move out. She left her furniture and electronics behind for her roommate, but said she was not able to retrieve them before Tuesday morning’s deadline.

“The city could definitely have done better as far as that goes,” said Martin, who as of mid-day Tuesday had no place to take shelter or sleep that night.

“A little compassion or help would have gone a long way.”

Many of the displaced tenants are Venezuelans, whose influx over the past two years into Denver and Aurora has caused a string of controversies, especially in the eyes

On Aug. 8, members of the council’s public safety committee and Mayor Mike Coffman broke into an impromptu discussion about what they perceive as problems connected to immigrants and refugees from Venezuela living in Aurora and Denver.

Of particular concern to some was a gathering on July 28, when as many as 4,000 cars descended on the parking lots at the Gardens on Havana shopping center in west-central Aurora, apparently to celebrate what at the time looked like the political demise of Venezuela President Nicolás Maduro, which would have been a monumental change to all Venezuelans

Maduro has since held on to power, despite international demands that he step down after an apparent electoral loss and elec-

tion fraud perpetrated by his administration, according to Associated Press reports.

Some city council members and witnesses have characterized the July 28 gathering in Aurora as violent, destructive and criminal.

Sundberg told committee members he’s convinced that the TDA gang is extensive, and that they have “taken over” multiple apartment complexes in the city.

After several requests for comment, police have not detailed gang involvement in Aurora and the metro area.

Coffman has repeatedly pushed back against claims by Jurinsky and Hancock that the convergence on the Gardens on Havana shopping center was a “test” by Venezuelan immigrants aiming to make future trouble in Aurora.

“It’s a one-off,” Coffman said. He said the crowd appeared to be

impromptu, caused by mass assumptions that Maduro had been ousted from office, not a preplanned event organized by gangs.

The parking lots were strewn with garbage and debris after the gathering. Police reported gunfire into the air by some people in the crowd although details were not released. Police pointed out that there were no arrests or citations issued.

City administrators and Coffman insist the July 28 event is unrelated to problems in northwest Aurora.

Several of the Venezuelan tenants camped out near Nome Street on Tuesday noted how long and far they and their families had come for the relative safety and promise of new lives in Aurora.

“Not gangs. Not gangs,” Ernesto said. “Peace.”

Obituary

Longtime Aurora journalist and dedicated grant writer Jim Ayers dies at 72

James “Jim” Ayers died Aug 5, 2024. He was 72.

Born Christmas Day 1951, he was a dad, a spouse, a brother, a son, an administrator; and through it all, a writer. Never one to waste a word, he could capture and summarize any moment with just the right amount of emotion and interest.

Jim’s talents were used in service of the Aurora community for decades, first as a reporter and editor for the Aurora Sentinel; and later as the Head Grant Writer for Aurora Mental Health and Recovery (then, Aurora Community Mental Health Center), securing millions of dollars in funding and ensuring Aurora’s most vulnerable had access to mental health services.

As a Sentinel journalist, Jim’s reporting and skill with the written word educated the community and, importantly, helped them to understand why they should care about what they were reading. However, what we most remember is seeing our childhood and family through his eyes, conveyed to the masses when it was relevant and relatable.

Jim was an entrepreneur. He started his own editorial services company, Criscadian, an amalgamation of the names of his children and spouse: Chris, Katy, and Annie. His company and keen eye for detail is what caught the eye of Aurora Mental Health, where he served until his retirement in 2018.

Jim was smart. He had a quick wit and keen observations of the world. We relied on him for perspective, how to approach a problem, and where to go from there. When presented with a predicament, he was ready to help find a solution and act on it. More than a problem solver, very much a do-er. Jim was the kind voice of reason when the world was too big. He was a safe refuge from the storm, reassuring you that everything was going to be OK.

As an older brother, his gentleness, wisdom, and compassion would always be counted on. He always wanted to lift up, not tear down. His smile, his laughter, and the sparkle in his eyes were beyond comforting. They were affirmation of what’s good in the world–what’s real and what’s true.

Jim is predeceased by his mother, Silvia, father, James, and his most-missed wife and partner, Annie. His memory will be carried on by his two children Katy (Curtis Arbuckle), Chris (Michelle Gebhart), his grandson and namesake, James; his siblings Judy (Frank Pansini), Kathy, and Mike (Gina); and his nieces, nephew, and great nephew. Jim is terribly missed. As we grieve and navigate our new normal, we believe he is watching with his new, expanded perspective and know he will find a way to remind us of what’s relevant, real, and true.

Donations in Jim’s name may be directed to Aurora Mental Health and Recovery.
