More than 300 vacant units at the Palatia Apartments were cleared. Police said that there were complaints of narcotics, human trafficking and threats to apartment personnel. Twenty people were arrested, four who are confirmed Tren de Agua members. More than 100 suspected members of Tren de Aragua were a part of the group that violently stormed the border at El Paso, Texas in March. The gang has taken footholds across the country, allegedly taking over apartments in Colorado, seizing hotels near the Texas border in El Paso and shooting cops in New York. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has declared the prison gang a foreign terrorist organization.
Meanwhile, Aurora, Colorado is increasing the budget for the Aurora Police Department by $10 million next year to hire more cops as it deals with crime spilling over from Denver, the sanctuary city next door.

Texas law enforcement raided a vacant San Antonio apartment complex that had fallen under the "control" of the notorious Tren de Aragua gang, which was using the building as a base for crime, officials said.

A multi-agency task force cleared more than 300 vacant units at the Palatia Apartments on the North Side of the city on Saturday morning, San Antonio Police Chief Chief McManus told reporters at a press conference.

SAPD had received several complaints from the apartment complex regarding narcotics, human trafficking and threats to apartment personnel, according to police.

"We had information that members of the transnational gang Tren de Agua were in control of the area and committing various crimes," McManus said.

Twenty people were arrested, four who are confirmed Tren de Agua members — including one person who is an "enforcer," he said.
