Law enforcement agencies in Florida are warning that illegal immigrant gangs are taking advantage of the recent hurricanes to go on looting sprees.
In Pinellas County, the sheriff's office reported that 41 out of the 45 people arrested for looting in the aftermath of the two hurricanes were illegal immigrants. The 41 migrants were mostly from Mexico, Colombia, Cuba, Honduras and Venezuela. (Related: FEMA doesn't have enough money to get through hurricane season after spending $640 million on MIGRANTS.)
Pinellas County, which covers Clearwater and St. Petersburg on Florida's west coast, was struck by Hurricanes Helene and Milton at the end of September and the beginning of October, with many homes and businesses left devastated.
Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri said his team spent the past few weeks conducting looting patrols on the barrier islands that run along the edge of the peninsula, finding dozens of people trying to take advantage of empty streets and properties.
