11 people, including Venezuelan gang members, facing potential charges in abduction, police say

Eleven people, including members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, are facing potential charges for the violent abduction and beating of a couple in a Denver suburb.

Eight suspects are detained by federal authorities, while three remain at large.

The incident stemmed from a video the wife filmed of a fight at the apartment complex, which was posted online.

The armed suspects kidnapped the couple, beat them, and extorted them for $500, with the husband also stabbed.

The suspects also burglarized their apartment and destroyed the video, the Associated Press has reported.

Police are investigating if other residents were similarly extorted.
