MINNESOTA—

In a shocking crackdown, ICE has stormed the streets of Sanctuary Minnesota, arresting members of some of the world’s most notorious criminal gangs. Under President Trump’s directive, federal agents have targeted dangerous illegal aliens linked to violent crimes, sending a jolt through the community.

ICE officials announced that Operation Metro Surge has led to the apprehension of over 2,500 criminal illegal aliens in Minnesota alone. “We’re picking up the worst of the worst offenders,” said ICE Director Todd M. Lyons. The stakes are high as these suspects allegedly possess extensive rap sheets, including charges for homicide, drug trafficking, and weapons offenses.

Among those arrested are Jose Miguel Reyes Jovel, an MS-13 gang member from El Salvador, convicted of homicide and drug trafficking. Htun Min Pai, a former South Side Crips member from Burma, has multiple felony convictions, including drug possession and fraud. The list continues, featuring gang members from the Paisas to the Purple Brothers, each with a history of violence and criminal activity.

The operation has drawn ire from local politicians, with critics arguing that the crackdown targets vulnerable communities. However, ICE maintains that these arrests are crucial for public safety. “These are the individuals who terrorize our neighborhoods,” authorities emphasized, driving home the message that no one is above the law.

As the dust settles, this operation is sure to ignite debates over immigration policies and public safety in Minnesota. The stakes have never been higher as ICE continues its fight against gang violence in a state marked by its sanctuary status.
