Drugs in the nightclub “Underground Illegal” in Colorado Springs

Colorado Springs, Colorado (KKTV) – According to the Rocky Mountain Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), the law enforcement authorities carried out a large -scale operation at an underground illegal nightclub early Sunday morning.

The operation took part in the operation near the Academy Boulevard and Airport Road at 3:45 a.m. to the local law enforcement officers.

Officials said that various crimes took place in this night club, including drug trafficking, prostitution and violence. What the DEA said looked confiscated like pink cocaine and several weapons during the operation.

According to reports, at least one dozen military personnel in active service worked, both of whom worked as armed security in the club and took part as patrons. Officials would neither say in which branch the service members were involved or how many, if at all, were in custody.

“It is obviously worrying to participate in an active military. In this case, we work with our partners on the Army Cid,” said Jonathan Pullen, special representative of the Rocky Mountain Field Division of DEA.

“There are many military bases here, so it’s not necessarily surprising, but we will take it very seriously.”

The DEA said that 114 people in the country were illegally taken illegally by ice as a result of this operation.

The law enforcement authorities still investigate whether one of the people inside was part of the Venezuelan gang tren de Aragua (TDA).

“In our study we noticed TDA, MS 13 a few Hells Angels in this club. I do not have the information about whether these members were there tonight, but we still work a lot of it because we have so many people in custody. We work a lot about the information about who is.”

There were over 200 people inside and at least half were arrested or arrested. The DEA said some of the people arrested arrest warrants. There are other operations in the city that determine whether there are more arrests.

This is a developing story.
