An activist group representing tenants of a troubled Aurora apartment complex says some residents have been without running water for five days, as a company hired by the city works to connect them with alternative housing before the buildings are shuttered because of allegations of gang activity and neglect. Housekeys Action Network Denver wrote in an email Friday that tenants in two buildings at the Edge of Lowry “have had no way to bathe their children or cook food this past week and are desperate for support.” The group also mentioned that the deteriorating conditions — including burst pipes and flooding — have come as residents scramble to find other places to live ahead of Feb.

Colorado Parks and Wildlife officers relocated a sleepless Niwot bear to a cozier location away from the temptations of human food. CPW officers decided to relocate the Niwot bear away from food sources to increase its chances of entering torpor, or hibernation. According to CPW’s X account, bears may not enter torpor, a state of reduced physical activity, if the weather is too warm or if there are too many food sources nearby. Officers waited for the bear to climb down from a tree and then tranquilized it.

Colorado isn’t the only area struggling to produce enough homes to meet demand. A survey reveals that many U. S. cities face significant housing shortages, with some mayors anticipating deficits of over 50,000 units. That shortage continues to increase housing prices, making buying a home increasingly unaffordable. Median home prices hit $488,272 nationally last year and sat at $580,000 in Denver in November and December. The United States Conference of Mayors and the American Institute of Architects National Housing Survey released in mid-January shows the housing shortage is a national problem. Over half of the mayors surveyed anticipate a 5,000-to-20,000-unit shortfall in their city in the next 5 years. Almost one in six mayors anticipate a 20,000- to 50,000-unit shortfall in their city.

By ALANNA DURKIN RICHER and CHRISTINE FERNANDO, Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump’s new Justice Department leadership issued an order Friday to curtail prosecutions against people accused of blocking reproductive rights facilities, calling the cases an example of the “weaponization” of law enforcement.
