Disturbing 911 Dispatch Calls from Apartment Takeover: ’32 Venezuelans Are Trespassing in the Building’
Recent emergency call recordings from the Chicago Police Department reveal alarming reports of a takeover at an apartment complex by a group of Venezuelans reportedly armed and causing disturbances. The incident occurred on the evening of September 3, 2024, at a location on South King Drive, where dispatchers described a chaotic scene with individuals showing guns and motorcycles present in the courtyard.
Despite multiple calls to dispatch about the armed group, there were significant delays in police response, raising concerns among observers regarding the urgency of the situation. However, upon police arrival, reports indicated that the courtyard was abandoned, and no individuals with weapons or motorcycles were found, contradicting the earlier claims.
This incident in Chicago parallels a similar situation in Aurora, Colorado, where a Venezuelan gang allegedly took over an apartment building. Officials in Colorado downplayed the severity of the situation, suggesting it was exaggerated. Both incidents have sparked discussions about the potential implications of such takeovers and the responses from local authorities.
Disturbing 911 dispatch calls concerning the apparent takeover of an American apartment complex by foreign nationals have been released.
The emergency calls were made in Chicago, Illinois, Monday evening, and the information was relayed to field officers by the Chicago Police Department’s zone 7, district 3 dispatch.
The transmissions revealed a chaotic scene.
“Person with a gun, 6124 South King Drive,” the dispatcher told officers. “Caller says, 32 Venezuelans are trespassing in the building, showing guns in the courtyard, and they have motorcycles in the courtyard, as well.
“All stairwells are filled.”
A second dispatcher was recorded sending officers information about the mob.
“We’ve had multiple calls for the guns as 6124 South King, also for the disturbance, large gathering,” the dispatcher said. “It’s going to be 32 Venezuelans trespassing on the building property, showing guns in the courtyard.
“There are motorcycles in the courtway. All stairways filled.”
Audio of the dispatch calls was obtained and published by X account WindyCity Weather and News.
Why did it take #CPD 50 minutes to assign this call, and why did it have to go to Sargent? Short a few cars in 3? Is this not a high priority call?

By the time police arrived on the scene, it appears they found an abandoned courtyard.
“Officers respond to a call for service after a large group of migrants with weapons and motorcycles were reported in a residential building’s courtyard on the 6100 block of South King Monday in Chicago,” Chicago photojournalist Armando Sanchez wrote on X.
“According to a source, no migrants were found with weapons or motorcycles.”

The apparent takeover in Chicago mirrors a similar situation in Colorado.
A violent Venezuelan gang in Aurora reportedly took over an apartment complex, with surveillance video showing men armed with rifles and pistols gaining entry into one of the building’s units.
Officials have dismissed the concern, with the Aurora Police Department saying, the gang’s influence in the city is “limited.”
The administration of Colorado Gov. Jared Polis similarly waved away concerns, with a representative saying, the takeover was the product of “imagination.”
