Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Description
Aurora Police and local outlets report several notable incidents in Aurora over the past week.
Near East Colfax Avenue and Peoria Street, Aurora’s Cold Case Unit continues investigating the alleged 2024 fatal shooting of 27-year-old Preston Guillory outside a convenience store in the 12000 block of East Colfax. According to the Aurora Police Department and the Denver Gazette, the victim was shot multiple times around 3:30 a.m. and died at the scene. Investigators believe multiple bystanders were present and left before speaking with officers. The case remains under investigation, and Aurora Police have doubled the reward for information to 4,000 dollars, asking anyone with details to contact Metro Denver Crime Stoppers. Surveillance video shows a possible suspect wearing a white hooded sweatshirt and black pants. Police are actively seeking public assistance in identifying this individual.
According to Sentinel Colorado, Aurora Police’s Human Trafficking Unit continues to work several ongoing trafficking and pimping investigations involving alleged commercial sexual exploitation facilitated online and across state lines. Since its formal creation in late 2025, the unit has opened 11 cases, identified and removed 15 victims, and filed cases against eight suspects, with additional investigations still active. Detectives report that much of the alleged trafficking activity involves moving victims between Colorado and other states using interstate highways. Many of these cases remain under investigation in coordination with federal and regional task forces.
AuroraTV reports that Aurora Police recently announced the formation of a Chief’s Community Response Team and highlighted continued work by specialized units, including Internet Crimes Against Children and violent crime investigators, to address recent shootings, online exploitation, and other serious offenses citywide. Specific incident details, including intersections and case numbers, were not released in that report, but officials emphasized ongoing investigations and community partnerships.
Any significant trends or patterns: authorities continue to focus on violent crime involving firearms in the East Colfax corridor, long-running cold-case homicide work, and complex human trafficking cases that often cross jurisdictional lines and rely heavily on online recruitment. Specialized units and community-based efforts remain central to these investigations.
Emergency contact information for tips: listeners with information about violent crimes or trafficking in Aurora can contact Aurora Police or remain anonymous by calling Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720-913-7867. For emergencies, dial 911.
