Police in Aurora, Colorado, announced that they have arrested another documented member of the Venezuelan street gang Torren de Aragua on assault, kidnapping and other charges.
Royvers Daniel Mora-Marquez, 23, was arrested by the Aurora Police Department Gang Intervention Unit on September 25th on two warrants issued by Adams District Court and Arapahoe District Court.
The immigrant was charged with aggravated first-degree assault, second-degree kidnapping, third-degree assault and felony menacing, the department said in an official statement.
The Aurora Police Department arrested Mora-Marquez in April and set bail at $20,000, but he did not appear in court.
Mora-Marquez was one of 10 documented Torren de Aragua gang members on the department's list of gang members released in early September.

The department noted a list of 10 gang members “who reside in Aurora and have committed acts of violence against members of the immigrant community.”
This time, Mora-Marquez is considered a flight risk and is being held without bail.
The department ramped up its investigation into gang members in August after national news broke that residents of several apartment complexes in Aurora were facing extortion and harassment by immigrant gang members.
