AURORA, Colo. -- Several people were robbed at gunpoint in a brazen attack in the lobby of a motel early Wednesday morning, the Aurora Police Department said.

The robberies happened at the Econo Lodge at 15900 E. 40th Ave., west of Pena Boulevard, about 3:15 a.m.

"I just ran over, jumped over the counter," one victim said. "For the first 10 seconds, I was like, is this real? Then they came over to me and I didn't necessarily comply. And that's when they knocked me out." - Gregory Preston
