The Drug Enforcement Administration said it detained more than 200 people -- including members of the military -- at an unlicensed underground nightclub in Colorado on Sunday, officials told ABC News.
Officials said among those that were detained were active-duty military members. DEA Special Agent in Charge Jonathan Pullen said that alleged members of gangs, including Tren de Aragua and MS-13, were present at the venue.
At approximately 3:45 a.m. on Sunday, officials conducted a "multi-agency enforcement operation" at what they called an underground nightclub in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The DEA's Rocky Mountain Division posted a video on X showing the operation underway on Sunday morning.
Of the hundreds of people inside the nightclub, at least 114 were migrants that DEA officials said were in the country illegally. They are now in Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody.
