SUMMARY: The Trump administration is intensifying efforts to deport illegal immigrants, focusing on criminals including alleged gang members. Operations across the country, such as a recent one in Reno, Nevada, resulted in multiple arrests of individuals with serious criminal histories like manslaughter and weapons charges. In New York City, police faced violent attacks from suspects linked to the Venezuelan gang Train Daywa during a robbery incident in Times Square. Tennessee authorities also arrested over 80 individuals, including gang members and repeat offenders. Immigrant advocates argue many arrested were non-criminals or asylum seekers without proper documentation. Republican lawmakers are challenging sanctuary policies in Democratic-led states, calling for hearings.

Across the country, there has been an aggressive effort to find and arrest criminals living in the country illegally.

The KRNV news team in Reno, Nevada, tagged along for an ICE Enforcement operation on Tuesday that resulted in 16 arrests.

In an interview during the ride-along, agents shared details about one of the people arrested.
