"You look at Aurora in Colorado, they are taking over the towns, they're taking over buildings, they're going in violently," Trump said during his debate with Vice President Kamala Harris.

Former president Donald Trump held a rally Friday in Colorado to underscore his argument that migrant crime is out of control.

Weeks after the video spread on social media, police revealed that nine members of a Venezuelan prison gang have been arrested and accused of crimes in the city in the past year — many happening at the same cluster of apartment complexes.

For weeks leading up to the campaign stop, Trump has repeatedly name-checked the city of Aurora — a sprawling Denver suburb — when he speaks against immigration.

"There are many things that are occurring in these complexes, all of them are under control," said Aurora Police Chief Todd Chamberlain during a September news conference. "I can tell you right now, gangs are not in control of the city of Aurora."

The seeds of the myth about immigrants taking over parts of Aurora come from a viral video this summer where six armed people are seen entering an Aurora apartment .

Aurora Police have never said whether the people in the video were part of any gang, but it put a spotlight on the growing number of Venezuelan migrants living in the city.

"The reality is that the concerns about Venezuelan gang activity have been grossly exaggerated. The incidents were limited to several apartment complexes in this city of more than 400,000 residents."
