Police at the federal, state, and local level have agreed to move collectively in the coming 72 hours to sweep downtown, where immigrants who slipped into the country undetected have set up residence on the streets and turned city blocks into slums.
EL PASO, Texas — Days ahead of Title 42 ending, police at the federal, state, and local level have agreed to move collectively in the coming 72 hours to sweep downtown, where immigrants who slipped into the country undetected have set up residence on the streets and turned city blocks into slums, the Washington Examiner has learned.
The federal government arm, U.S. Customs and Border Protection , announced late Monday that starting Tuesday, it would"conduct a targeted enforcement operation" in El Paso."Immigration enforcement agents will process individuals for vetting and placement into Title 42 expulsion or Title 8 removal proceedings, as applicable," CBP said in a statement."Noncitizens who pose a threat to national security or public safety will be transferred to ICE for detention.
Two senior CBP officials who disclosed the plan with the Washington Examiner Monday said the operation would be a serious, calculated move with federal agents and officers taking significant safety precautions for fear of a hostile pushback from those on the streets. Approximately 2,500 primarily male immigrants from Venezuela who illegally crossed the border from Mexico and evaded law enforcement are sprawled across several blocks surrounding Sacred Heart Church.The continually expanding homeless encampment has become a serious problem in the community over public safety concerns, including confirmed incidents of daily prostitution and drug distribution, according to three federal law enforcement officials who spoke with the Washington Examiner this week.
