“Just yesterday, Department of Homeland Security law enforcement arrested several repeat offenders, including a criminal illegal alien convicted of kidnapping, robbery, felony larceny, and assault on a law enforcement officer with a firearm,” DHS’s Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement:

Our law enforcement officers are risking their lives to arrest these thugs — some RELEASED from Minnesota jails — and are saving countless American lives by getting these criminals out of our country. 70% of all ICE arrests nationwide are of illegal aliens charged or convicted of a crime in the U.S. Check out more of the worst of the worst we arrested in Minnesota at wow.dhs.gov/Minnesota.

Thanks to Operation Metro Surge, ICE agents arrested illegal alien Bee Yang of Thailand. Yang has had a final deportation order, issued by a federal immigration judge, since 2015 and has been convicted of first-degree kidnapping, assault on a law enforcement officer with a firearm, robbery with a dangerous weapon, breaking and entering, felony larceny, and larceny of a motor vehicle.

Similarly, ICE agents arrested illegal alien Wilson Johny Encalada Molina of Ecuador, who has had a final deportation order since 2023 and has been charged with third-degree rape of a victim under the age of 17 and malicious punishment of a child, and convicted of endangering the welfare of a child.

ICE agents arrested Ian Mwangi Irungu of Kenya, convicted of selling heroin and dangerous drugs; Melvin Yobany Hernandez Espana of Honduras, convicted of assault; and Serigo Quintero Romero of Mexico.

Romero has been deported three times from the United States, has a final deportation order from 2012, and has attempted to defraud the immigration system by presenting a fraudulent lawful permanent resident card.
