U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Miami, working alongside Florida law enforcement, arrested nearly 800 illegal immigrants in just the first four days of Operation Tidal Wave.
This major, multi-agency initiative marks one of the most aggressive crackdowns in recent memory, signaling a sharp escalation in immigration enforcement consistent with President Donald Trump’s renewed mass deportation agenda.
Fox News obtained exclusive details on several high-profile arrests from the ongoing operation, exposing just how serious the threat posed by some of these individuals is. Among those apprehended:
Jose Sanchez Reyes, a Colombian national convicted of homicide in his home country, had entered the U.S. illegally as a getaway fugitive.
Rafael Juarex Cabrera, an alleged MS-13 gang member from Guatemala, has repeatedly violated U.S. immigration law, having been caught and convicted of felony illegal reentry three times.
In a first-of-its-kind partnership between state and federal partners, ICE Miami and Florida law enforcement arrested nearly 800 illegal aliens this week during the first four days of #OperationTidalWave — a massive, multi-agency, immigration enforcement crackdown.
