Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino confirmed on Monday that President Donald Trump’s administration has arrested roughly 3,000 illegal immigrants in Chicago and the surrounding area since the start of Operation Midway Blitz in September.
In early September, the Department of Homeland Security announced that the Trump administration was launching Operation Midway Blitz in honor of Katie Abraham, who was killed in a major car crash caused by a criminal illegal immigrant in Illinois. Bovino told ABC News that nearly 3,000 illegal immigrants have been arrested as part of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operation.
USA Today reported that Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security Tricia McLaughlin noted on Monday that over “3,000 illegal aliens including rapists, murderers, and gang members,” have been arrested as part of Operation Midway Blitz in Chicago and the surrounding area.
