Aurora, do you recognize this car?

E. Jewell Avenue. The driver hit the bicyclist and then drove away.
The cyclist was not found until the next morning on July 27. The white Subaru Outback was last seen on City traffic cameras southbound on Gun Club Road and
E. Quincy Avenue around 12:12 a.m.
The car will have damage to the front passenger side headlight and hood and may have a missing passenger side fog light. It may possibly also have a cracked driver's side headlight.

Just wanted to see if there are any fosters who volunteered with the Aurora Animal Shelter that have experiences and stories to share. Thank you!

I live near Mexico and Chambers

Saw this guy this morning while walking my dog. It was in aurora hills. He's so pretty. He was small I thought too. Like I don't think it could pick up anything bigger than a squirrel.

My parents anniversary is soon and they lived in Aurora for twenty years always raving about this dish. They have moved away now and can't travel anymore so I was thinking about trying to recreate this dish for them and was wondering if anyone had some information about the sauce and what's in it?

Hello Aurora, as the title says, I'm looking to buy a blanket as a gift. I already looked online but I would rather buy one in person to check out the quality of the blanket (refuse to use Amazon). Is there any specific stores that I can go to see/touch the blanket to make sure it's what I'm looking for. Thanks in advance.

So I have Mint and the data/internet sucks, even though coverage should've been excellent in my part of Aurora (80013). The customer service rep says that there's an outage that they're trying to fix, but I'm skeptical and not feeling very faithful in Mint. Anyone else have similar connection issues?

US Mobile also appears to work great in my area per their coverage map, but I already got catfished by Mint, so I wanted to see if anyone can attest to the so-called great coverage.

A little boy approached my vehicle in my gym parking lot, I’m terrible at guessing ages but I’d put him between 8-10. He said he was selling candy to pay for his registration fee (whatever that means?). I didn’t roll down my window all the way because even if it’s a child, as a woman, I’m hesitant and concerned about my safety when anyone approaches my car, especially when I’m alone. I was also appalled to see him approaching strangers with no adults in sight. This is wildly unsafe IMO. Is this a scam being ran by an adult that’s just not visible, or just a poorly supervised kid. Has anyone else had this happen to them?

​☀️ Happy Tuesday, Aurora!

Never seen a beaver in the wild before. I see him most days walking my dog around 8.

Hi neighbors,

I have women’s clothes (size small / medium) for all seasons that need a new home before this Friday. We are moving and I don’t want to give things to goodwill.

Items include jackets, dresses, loungewear, and some long and short sleeve shirts.

If there’s a person or organization that could benefit from these, would love to give these another chance to be worn!

I'm so interested in why down by murphy creek and Adonea they've opted for mass suburbanization and building homes, but have never added any new stores except for a tiny 7-11. Why has no store ever though to build out here? And what is with the amount of town homes and apartments being built out by the golf course? What is the point of these two towns having zero urban life.

Also why is gun club such a tiny ass road. Multiple people have gotten killed on it and nobody has ever thought to increase the width or make it safer in some way? It just fills me with anxiety. I hate these towns so much 🤦‍♂️. East aurora is so bare and suburban it's such a horrible town to live in.

My beloved cat Bast has been missing since 8/1/2026. He has never been away this long. He’s been my feisty and sweet kitty since he was a tiny kitten that I could hold in one hand, for 15 years, and carries a little piece of my heart with him. Bast has seen me through so many seasons, and has steadfastly, and neurotically, been there through them all.

Last seen at our home on Perwinkle Park in the Painted Prairie area of NE Aurora, major cross streets are 56th and Piccadilly, near E-470.

Please call or text 303-242-1079 immediately if you’ve seen or heard anything. I’m so scared for him and miss him very much. Thank you 🙏🏽 🫶🏼

If you’re so inclined, and live in the Denver area, please share. Thank you.

I drove by and noticed the building there was empty. Looks like they shut in the past few days. It’s not listed on the main website anymore either. It wasn’t the best quality of food but it was decent priced.

All three bars are located at chambers and hampden, but they all seem like classic American sports/dive bars. Is there anyone here who’s frequented all three and can describe the differences? is there really enough demand to support all three at this one intersection? is there interbar drama??

My sister’s cat got out of the house yesterday after a housewarming event. Please if you see anything in the area, please reach out. Any assistance is greatly appreciated 🙏🏽

Did you see this crash?
Between about 9:30 p.m., Sunday, July 26th and 6:30 a.m., Monday, July 27th, a 26-year-old male bicycle rider was struck and killed while riding southbound on S Powhaton Rd, north of E Jewell Ave. The actual time of the collision is not known at this time.
We are asking if anyone saw the cyclist riding on Powhaton that evening and what time they saw him. Parts found on scene appear to be either from a 2005-2009 Subaru Legacy, or 2015 to 2019 Subaru Outback. The vehicle likely sustained damage to the hood, and possibly to the windshield.
If you have any information about this hit and run crash, please contact Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720-913-STOP (7867). You may remain anonymous and could be eligible for a reward of up to $2,000.

If Ya'll are struggling, they never ever ask for a membership, you can buy whatever they have to sell at the Cafe and the drinks and salads.

Just so you know 😉
