During the week of April 30 through May 6, 2025, Aurora Police responded to several notable criminal incidents across the city. On April 29, a homicide occurred in the Central Aurora area. Officers located a deceased individual at the scene. After an initial investigation, Aurora Police announced an arrest had been made in connection with the case. The case remains active as detectives continue to follow up on leads. On May 4, the Street Racing Task Force was deployed in north Aurora to address reports of alleged illegal street racing activities. Officers issued multiple citations and impounded vehicles involved in these incidents. The latest street racing events are under active investigation, and police continue to monitor known hotspots while encouraging the public to report ongoing activity. There was an organized crime enforcement action completed last week in the southern neighborhoods of Aurora, resulting in the arrest of four individuals on Colorado Organized Crime Control Act charges. Police confirmed the investigation is ongoing, with additional suspects potentially being sought. Throughout the week, officers also responded to several calls involving alleged property crimes such as thefts and burglaries in the vicinity of the Mississippi Avenue and Havana Street corridor. Suspects in these cases fled the scenes prior to police arrival, and investigators are currently seeking leads. These cases remain open and under investigation. Police responded to multiple incidents of alleged impaired driving, particularly along the Colfax Avenue corridor. Several drivers were arrested after failing roadside sobriety tests. These incidents are considered isolated and follow standard DUI enforcement protocols. No public requests for suspect identification were issued this week. A review of recent incidents suggests a continued trend of street racing activity and property-related crimes in specific Aurora corridors. The Aurora Police Department encourages residents to report suspicious activity and provide tips on ongoing investigations. Anyone with information regarding these or other incidents is urged to contact the Aurora Police Department at 303.627.3100 or, for emergencies, dial 911. Anonymous tips may also be submitted through Metro Denver Crime Stoppers.
