BREAKING! Colorado: The Aurora Police Department announced Monday formal charges have been filed against nine suspects involved last month in the violent kidnapping of two victims at an apartment complex in northwest Aurora. #APDNews

Among the suspects charged last week in Arapahoe District Court are:

Andres Alexander Liendo-Padilla, 26
Javier Alexander Alvarado Parada, 24
Jesus Alberto Alejos Escalona, 22
Junior Reyes-Barrios, 28
Barbara Sivle Medina-Arcaya, 29
Donarkys Teresa Suarez-Quesada, 31
Luigi Javier Soto-Sucre, 26
Niefred Jose Serpa-Acosta, 20
Jengrinso Elias Loreto-Petit, 26

The suspects face varying charges including second-degree kidnapping, first-degree assault, aggravated robbery, second-degree burglary, extortion and menacing. In addition to the above charges, the Aurora Police Department has also obtained arrest warrants for three additional suspects. Those suspects are not yet in custody.

The charges and the warrants stem from about 2:30 a.m., Tuesday, Dec. 17, 2024, when Aurora police patrol officers responded to a report of a kidnapping at The Edge at Lowry Apartments, located in the 1200 block of Dallas Street. The investigation to date has determined two victims were confronted by approximately a dozen armed suspects and taken to a vacant apartment against their will where they were bound, threatened and assaulted.

A total of 19 people were detained during the preliminary investigation. Three people were subsequently released after being interviewed by investigators and it was determined they were not involved in the crime.

The remaining 16 suspects are being held by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which includes the nine suspects charged last week in Arapahoe District Court. The additional seven suspects in ICE custody remain under investigation for the Dec. 17, 2024, kidnapping.

In addition to the cases and charges noted above, Niefred Jose Serpa-Acosta was previously wanted on an active felony warrant for first-degree burglary and menacing with a deadly weapon. The warrant stemmed from Aug. 18, 2024, when a security camera captured Serpa-Acosta and five other armed men knocking on apartment doors at The Edge at Lowry about 10 minutes before a fatal shooting in the 1200 block of Dallas Street.

By Oct. 2, 2024, Operation Safe Haven investigators positively identified and obtained arrest warrants for all six suspects. With Serpa-Acosta’s capture last month, four of the six suspects from the Aug. 18, 2024, crime are now in custody.

Operation Safe Haven is a special Aurora Police Department task force activated last August to investigate crimes involving the city’s migrant population.

The investigation into the Dec. 17, 2024, kidnapping is active and ongoing. Anyone with any information is asked to contact Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720.913.STOP (7867). Tipsters can remain anonymous and could be eligible for a reward of up to $2,000.

When spike strips did not stop a burglary suspect on I-70, the Idaho Springs Police Department worked with Colorado DOT snowplow drivers to block the highway and make the suspect surrender.

The chase started when an officer saw a stolen vehicle linked to a New Year’s Eve robbery. After the suspect avoided capture, despite the spike strips, the snowplow drivers created a roadblock near Floyd Hill.

The police found the suspect under the influence of alcohol and drugs. He admitted he was looking for businesses to burglarize. He was arrested on several active warrants and now faces charges, including fleeing from law enforcement, DUI, and having burglary tools.

The Palisades Fire will prove to be an “extinction level event” for Gavin Newsom’s presidential aspirations. The photos of him with his slick smirk, greasy hair, and hands in his pocket like he’s posing for a Marlboro Man ad are career enders.

And good riddance.

NEW: Arsonist is spotted trying to set a fire in North Hills, Los Angeles on a neighborhood ring camera.

Arizona: The Horton Fire outside Payson, Arizona, is now 8,346 acres but containment has skyrocketed to 80%. There are currently 237 personnel still assigned to this incident, which has transitioned back to a local Type 3 Team from the Tonto National Forest.

After successful firing ops, crews are now in the process of securing their control lines and backhaul of excess equipment has begun. Crews will also be snagging the roads for hazards trees before the forest reopens to the public.

This fire started back on December 14th, and is still under investigation. Kind of a wild January assignment for all the firefighters down in Arizona.
