U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers arrested 54 undocumented immigrants in the greater New York City area as part of a recent move to target sanctuary cities such as New York.
The 54 immigrants are among hundreds of undocumented people ICE officers arrested in sanctuary cities across the country in a weeklong crackdown ending Oct. 9, the department said.
Many of the individuals in New York nabbed by ICE had recently been arrested on charges such as assault, sexual assault against a child, rape, criminal possession of a loaded firearm, criminal possession of stolen property, driving while intoxicated, robbery and grand larceny, according to ICE.
