New England’s U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) agents conducted a joint operation in Nantucket, Massachusetts to arrest “illegal criminal foreigners.”
In an article on X, the DEA New England division said its agents assisted with Ice and Ice’s law enforcement and demolition operations (ERO) Boston, arresting the idyllic summer destination island, 30 miles south of Cape Cod.
Nantucket Purner reports that the DEA confirmed it had arrested a man who had previously been accused of kidnapping, domestic assault and assault, as well as women.
Authorities have not determined the suspect’s name or country of origin.
Fox News Digital has contacted DEA for more information.

In a statement to the publication, the acting special agent responsible for the DEA’s New England field division would only say that it works with federal partners in immigration enforcement.
The U.S. Coast Guard also assisted in the operation, and it was reported that the U.S. Coast Guard brought federal agents to Nantucket and dragged them back to the mainland with the suspect.
The town of Natkit said in a press release that the Department of Justice (DOJ) contacted the Nantucket Police Department and warrants for “violent offenders” about their plans to arrive on the island.

In view of their local geography knowledge of the area, federal agencies also requested assistance from the Nantekit police.
The department’s detective department assists federal agents in determining the required addresses, and also provides transportation for the DEA.
DEA released two photos of the operation. In one photo, DEA agents were seen on a US Coast Guard ship with their backs facing the camera, while in another photo, two suspects appeared in custody.

In September, Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyards were arrested at least six times on the ice. The arrests are part of a larger operation to detain a suspect of illegal immigration accused of being accused of being favored by the beach towns of Biden and Obama families.
One of the arrests came on September 10, when Ice Ero Boston arrested Bryan Daniel Aldana-Arevalo, a 28-year-old illegal immigrant from El Salvador, who was charged with one count of rape of a ten-year-old child, including age difference of 10 years and two counts of indecent indecency, and blasphemed and assaulted a child under 14.
