Federal and Texas law enforcement officials arrested 76 people and seized hundreds of guns and 22 kilos of drugs during a two month operation targeting violent crime in the Fort Worth area. Included in the arrest were identified as illegal aliens, including suspected Tren de Aragua gang members.
“Our intention was to reduce violent crime in Fort Worth, Texas,” said Acting U.S. Attorney Nancy Larson for the Northern District of Texas, talking about the Operation Showdown joint operation. “And we did it together.”

“The removal of 76 gun and drug traffickers from the streets will have a lasting impact on this city,” Larson added during the press conference. “They are no longer out there pedaling their guns and their drugs, which would have led to more and more crime.”
