A Denver family alleges that a police SWAT team mistakenly raided their apartment in June 2023, forcing a mother and a grandmother out at gunpoint and then terrifying two young girls who were still inside the home.

A lawsuit filed in Denver County Court on Tuesday alleges that the Denver Police Department "terrorized" a family in the wrong apartment when they were looking for a suspect.

Officers locked the entire family in a police vehicle for at least an hour before letting them go free, according to the lawsuit.

On that same date in 2023, Shelton was in her apartment when more than a dozen SWAT team officers affiliated with the Denver Police Department conducted a surprise attack intended to corral Danny Gene Garcia,

Denver police “still can’t pull the trigger on telling the truth about this terrorizing raid,” an attorney said.

Members of a Denver Police Department SWAT team held terrified children at gunpoint in a raid at the wrong home, a lawsuit by the family alleges.
