The sanctuary city of Denver, Colorado is mulling turning an elementary school into a shelter for the town’s hordes of illegal aliens.

A spokesperson for Mayor Mike Johnston, a Democrat, confirmed to Fox News that a school has been “identified as a potential migrant shelter, but nothing is final and there’s no paperwork” yet.

Do Better Denver, a social media account, has claimed that Rocky Mountain Prep Sunnyside is the specific elementary school that the city’s interested in, turning into a shelter for migrants.

The mayor’s spokesperson also seemed to suggest that the city’s criminal alien problem is far less expansive than others have claimed.

“It’s also probably worth pointing out that very few newcomers are in shelter at this time,” spokesperson said. “In all of August, we saw around 150 people come through our shelter system, many of whom stayed for only a matter of hours before departing for other locations.”

Yet all this comes amid a flurry of reports about a violent Venezuelan prison gang, Tren de Aragua, taking over apartment buildings and operating openly and without fear in the nearby community of Aurora.

Video footage shows some armed Tren de Aragua gang members freely moving about one apartment complex in the city:

Some critics like Rep. Anna Paulina Luna have blamed the gang’s presence on the policies of the Biden-Harris administration, and on the administrations of Colorado Gov. Jared Polis and Aurora Mayor Mike Coffman’s administration. FYI, all four are Democrats.

“The situation in Aurora, Colorado, is just the tip of the iceberg of the problems that come with the Biden-Harris administration’s open border policies,” Luna told Fox News. “While gangs overrun our cities, Gov. Polis and Mayor Coffman are complicit in the violence unfolding there that is putting Americans in danger.”

“These criminals are reportedly involved in human trafficking and sexual abuse of minors. We must quickly put an end to the wave of illegal aliens pouring into our country and ensure that justice is served for the victims of these monstrous acts,” she added.

Meanwhile, this week a group of congressional Republicans penned a letter to local leaders in and around Denver also blaming the community’s criminal alien crisis on bad policies.

“The Biden-Harris Administration’s open border policies coupled with the state of Colorado’s sanctuary policies and the city of Denver’s sanctuary city status have fueled and exasperated the immigration crisis in Colorado,” the letter reads.

The problem is that the top dog in Colorado, Gov. Polis, is in complete denial about everything, as is typical for Democrats.

“Polis dismissed anger over Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua taking over apartment buildings in the Denver suburb of Aurora, calling it ‘imagination’ — despite video footage, police reports and the city’s mayor confirming it’s happening,” according to the New York Post.

Aurora City Council member Danielle Jurinsky was stunned by his denial.

“I am so disappointed,” she told Fox News. “My question back to the governor is, is this also a figment of the Romeros’ imagination? And the other resident that I helped to get out of there, and the other residents that I am going to continue to get out of there?”

As previously reported, Jurinsky helped at least one former Aurora apartment dweller escape her overtaken apartment building a few weeks ago.

“There are people behind this that are solely,playing politics,” Jurinsky continued. “That is so sad to me because they’re real human beings, just like the Romeros suffering on the other side of those doors, living behind four deadbolt locks and a door brace and living in fear every day in these complexes.”
