Stunning new surveillance video - this time out of Texas - purportedly shows illegal aliens with the violent Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua patrolling the hallways of a hotel they’ve reportedly taken over in El Paso.
One man can be seen carrying a hatchet in the video, while others sport firearms, knives, and other weaponry.
Perhaps even more disturbing is the fact that children can be seen playing and riding bikes among the gun-wielding men, who are shown regularly breaking into rooms, fighting, smoking, and using drugs. Some can even be seen bleeding from what appear to be stab wounds.
The El Paso County Attorney has confirmed the video is authentic and shows members of the gang, who he says have completely commandeered the Gateway hotel. According to local news outlets, the police have reportedly been called to the property at least 700 times for criminal behavior including violence and prostitution, and who now say they're working with the city to take back control of the property, which has been condemned.

Local police said they identified many of the adults as Tren de Aragua gang members by their tattoos, which can be clearly seen on tape.

A judge on Monday issued a temporary order mandating that all residents of the hotel leave by Thursday and that the owner, Howard Yun, stop allowing people to stay in the hotel.
The same gang has reportedly taken over not one, but two apartment complexes in Aurora, Colorado, where surveillance video shows them patrolling the halls with rifles and where residents have told local news outlets they’re in fear for their lives. But state officials, including Democrat Governor Jarid Polis, have denied the verified eyewitness reports, saying any such incidents are being exaggerated.
