The Department of Homeland Security arrested 14 undocumented immigrants in South Florida this week, as part of an operation tied to the Laken Riley Act, which mandates the detention of non-U.S. nationals accused of violent crimes or theft.
Among those detained were individuals accused of sexual assault and suspected members of the notorious "Tren de Aragua" gang. The arrests came after a three-day operation and are the latest in a series of enforcement actions under the law, signed into effect by President Donald Trump in January.
