Federal law enforcement authorities last week arrested 32 people in Nebraska and 23 in Iowa during an operation that targeted criminal immigrants, those who have re-entered the country illegally and immigration fugitives.
The arrests in those states were among 86 arrests of foreign nationals by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents last week in the Midwest, the agency said. Beyond Nebraska and Iowa, the arrests were made in Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota during a three-day targeted operation. The operation ended March 9, and ICE announced the arrests on Wednesday.
Of the total, 23 had been previously removed from the United States and later illegally re-entered.
