DENVER — An Aurora municipal judge granted an emergency order to close the troubled Edge of Lowry apartments, finding the property presents “an imminent threat to public safety and welfare,” city officials said Monday.

Aurora filed an emergency closure order seeking to shutter the 60-unit apartment complex last week, describing the property as “an epicenter for unmitigated violent crimes and property crimes perpetuated” and citing the recent kidnapping and torture of two residents by suspected members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua.

Attorneys for the city and property owners are set to appear in court Monday afternoon for the criminal nuisance case, Aurora officials said in a news release.
