The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) arrested seven more criminal illegal immigrants, including “pedophiles, gang members and drug traffickers” during Operation Metro Surge in Minneapolis.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on Friday announced its latest “worst of the worst” list, with offenders coming from Somalia, Venezuela, Ecuador, the Dominican Republic and Guatemala.
“Governor Tim Walz and Mayor Jacob Frey protected these criminals at the expense of the safety of Americans,” DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement. “President Trump and Secretary Noem have a clear message for criminal illegal aliens: LEAVE NOW. If you don’t, we will find you, arrest you, and deport you.”
The arrests included Abdi Gelle Mohamed and Sahal Osman Shidane of Somalia, who DHS said were convicted of sexual abuse of a minor and sexual conduct of a victim aged 13–15 years old, respectively.

The Justice Department also filed federal charges this week against Abdimahat Bille Mohamed, 28, a convicted sex offender in Minnesota who allegedly kidnapped and raped a woman he met on Snapchat in September. He had been sentenced in May in two unrelated sexual assault cases, but a judge allowed him to serve no prison time under a plea agreement.
