    AURORA, Colo. — The Aurora City Council voted Monday night to reinstate its reserve police force. Aurora had a reserve officer program until the early 2000s. But after interest in the program dropped to nearly zero, the police department got rid of it, according to city officials. The city also removed a section of code that authorized a reserve police force. City council's vote paved the way for the return of the volunteer-based force.

    AURORA, Colo. — Aurora City Council voted 5-4 on Monday in favor of suspending the Aurora Police Department's mutual aid agreement with the Denver Police Department. It means Aurora will not respond to Denver’s calls for help during major civil disturbances. Aurora Michael Coffman, who introduced the resolution during Monday's city council meeting, said Denver refused to accept legal responsibility for Aurora officers who responded to Denver's request for help during the 2020 summer protests.
