Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials reported on Tuesday taking about 40 people into custody on Nantucket Island and Martha’s Vineyard in a largescale operation that netted members of the dangerous MS-13 gang as well as at least one child sex offender.
“ICE officers and FBI, DEA and ATF agents worked together to arrest a significant number of illegal alien offenders which included at least one child predator,” ICE wrote in a statement. “Our partners in the U.S. Coast Guard facilitated a safe and efficient transport of the alien offenders off Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard, ensuring the safety of the residents of those communities.”
“Operations like this highlight the strong alliances that ICE shares with our fellow law enforcement partners,”said ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Boston acting Field Office Director Patricia H. Hyde.
Kimberly Milka, acting Special Agent in Charge of the FBI’s Boston Division, added that the operation “highlights FBI Boston’s ongoing commitment to supporting our partners at the Department of Homeland Security with identifying and apprehending those who are breaking the law by violating our immigration laws and, in some cases, committing crimes that endanger public safety.”
