In Aurora, Colorado, 14 individuals were apprehended by the police for their involvement in an armed home invasion and kidnapping.

At The Edge at Lowry Apartments, a home invasion took place, as seen in a viral video featuring gang members earlier this year.

At a local apartment complex in Aurora, Colorado, 14 individuals have been apprehended by police after an armed home invasion.

At approximately 2:30 a.m. on Tuesday, the Aurora Police received a call about an armed home invasion that resulted in a stabbing and kidnapping at The Edge at Lowry Apartments, located in the 1200 block of Dallas Street.

The police report that a preliminary investigation revealed that several suspects entered an apartment with two people inside, and the suspects took the victims to another apartment at the same location, where they were "threatened and bound."

A man who was stabbed is expected to recover, according to police.

The suspects released the victims, who then called 911 at some point, authorities said.

"The police investigation is in its initial stages, and updates will be provided as more information emerges."

A news conference is expected later Tuesday.
