The Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is arresting individuals whom officials call the “worst of the worst” in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where resources have been surged following a massive fraud scandal uncovered among the city’s Somali immigrant population.
This week, as rioters have sought to impede ICE operations in Minneapolis, agents continued arresting illegal aliens with horrific criminal records, including child rapists, pedophiles, drunk drivers, drug traffickers, and domestic abusers, among others.
“In the face of violent attacks, ICE law enforcement arrested pedophiles, rapists, and drug traffickers in Minneapolis yesterday,” the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Tricia McLaughlin said:
Every single day our law enforcement officers put their lives on the line to arrest the worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens from American communities. We will not let rioters slow us down from making Minnesota safe again — something Governor Walz and Mayor Frey refused to do. [Emphasis added]
