After law enforcement officers raided an “underground” nightclub early Sunday morning, Mayor Yemi Mobolade said he expects additional arrests in Colorado Springs’ future.
“I anticipate that there will be more arrests. I hope to see more raids happen in my city. This is not the first one,” Mobolade told national media outlet NewsNation Now.
More than 300 law enforcement officers from at least 10 agencies raided the property at 296 S. Academy Blvd., at the northwest corner of Academy Boulevard and Airport Road, on Sunday. They detained 114 people, including active-duty military members and individuals alleged to be in the U.S. illegally, officials said. On Monday, a social media post from the Drug Enforcement Administration showed a busload of 60 people who had been detained.
