U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) conducted a large-scale raid in Boston, targeting criminal aliens, including MS-13 gang members, murder suspects, and a Haitian gang member with 18 prior convictions.
The operation led to the arrest of over 300 individuals.
In an exclusive report from Fox News National Correspondent Bill Melugin, ICE Boston executed a targeted operation against egregious criminal aliens, resulting in eight high-profile arrests.
The operation resulted in eight arrests, including multiple members of the notorious MS-13 gang, suspects wanted on Interpol Red Notices for murder and rape, and a volatile Haitian gang member with an alarming record of 18 convictions in recent years.
When confronted by ICE, the Haitian national defiantly told cameras, “I ain’t going back to Haiti” and delivered a politically charged outburst: “F**k Trump, Biden forever!”
Also, the arrests involved collateral detention, where ICE apprehended an illegal immigrant not originally targeted but found in the company of an MS-13 gang member.
This gang member had been released just the day before by a sanctuary jurisdiction that refused to honor an ICE detainer.
Bill Melugin reported:
SNEAK PEEK: We embedded exclusively w/ ICE Boston today as they targeted egregious criminal aliens. We witnessed 8 arrests, including multiple MS-13, Interpol Red Notices, murder & rape suspects, & a volatile Haitian gang member w/ 18 convictions in recent years who told our cameras he “ain’t going back to Haiti” and “f**k Trump, Biden forever!”.
We also witnessed a “collateral” arrest, where ICE arrested an illegal alien who wasn’t their initial target – but was with a MS-13 gang member who had been released by a sanctuary jurisdiction yesterday with an ICE detainer not honored.
These collateral arrests are something that border czar Tom Homan has warned would happen in sanctuary jurisdictions.
At one point, a woman yelled out “thank you” to ICE as a violent illegal alien was being arrested in her neighborhood.
Story to come tomorrow on Fox News.
