How Denver plans to handle new influx of migrants

DENVER (KDVR) — Thursday, Denver city officials will host a press conference discussing how they plan to handle the influx of migrants arriving in the city.

The city said just within the last couple of days, around 700 migrants have arrived. Over the last week, well over 1,000 arrived.

Leaders have since activated the Denver Emergency Operations Center to help. This activation allows for quicker response times by opening four emergency shelters while continuing to look for more spaces to house them.
