>>Denver residents were surprised to hear the explicit message right after they finished howling to show support for all the healthcare workers.

Residents of the Five-Points neighborhood had just finished their 8 p.m. howl in support of front-line workers when a robot voice began blasting a message shaming residents who don't follow COVID-19 guidelines.

Denver resident Marianna Yurkevich said this to KDVR:

It’s vulgar. It’s out there. I was in shock. I was actually like, ‘Oh my goodness!’ We were standing around looking, like, ‘When is this going to stop?

Hear the VERY UNSAFE FOR WORK message in the video below taken by Marianna Yurkevich.

NO VIDEO as stated above.

Did anyone in Denver hear this loudspeaker "announcement"? The uncensored version was surprisingly hard to find.

the 5-Points area was a place you never, ever, would even get close to. This would have been 50-60 years ago and it had a reputation of bad things happening to people who got too close.

I imagine it is now well gentrified and if so, this report is kind of ironic. In an amusing way
