Police in Aurora, Colorado, say they have arrested 14 people after an armed home invasion at a local apartment complex.
Just before 2:30 a.m. Tuesday, police were called to the Edge at Lowry Apartments in the 1200 block of Dallas Street for a “report of an armed home invasion involving a stabbing and kidnapping,” according to an Aurora Police Department press release.
According to police, a preliminary investigation revealed that several suspects entered the apartment where the two lived. Police said the suspects took the victims to another apartment in the same area, where they were “threatened and detained.”
Police said one of the victims, a man, suffered stab wounds but is expected to survive.
