Prairie du Chien police say they are confident they arrested a member of the Tren de Aragua gang, who assaulted a woman and her daughter.
U.S. Rep. Derrick Van Orden and U.S. Senate candidate Eric Hovde — both Republicans running for Congress in Wisconsin — have appeared on Fox News in recent weeks to argue immigration is a Wisconsin issue. A female juvenile was also"found to have been injured during the physical altercation that took place," police said. No details about the victims, including their ages, have been released.
Police said the incident was"not a random event," as one of the victims brought the suspect to Prairie du Chien from Madison, Wisconsin, and"were acquaintances." The Dane County Sheriff’s Office told PolitiFact Wisconsin that Coronel Zarate was never in their custody, and the Madison Police Department similarly said he was never in jail in Dane County for that case.
"And to save any follow up inquiries, we have not taken reports of people eating cats or dogs," Barrett added, referring to the false claims in Springfield, Ohio. Prairie du Chien police said that based on their investigation, they can confirm Coronel Zarate entered the U.S. in September 2023"at or near the El Paso, Texas port of entry."Prairie du Chien isn’t the first small community in Wisconsin that Republicans have pointed to when making arguments about immigration.
Also, police said this was not a random attack and they have not had contact with other members of the gang.
