EXCLUSIVE — One in three arrests made in Washington, D.C. this week were tied to immigration-related offenses, according to federal law enforcement data and sources familiar with President Donald Trump’s federally led public safety operation in the nation’s capital.

FBI Director Kash Patel said in a post to X on Friday that there had been more than 120 arrests this week in the district. That arrest tally rose to over 189 as of Friday, including 75 Immigration and Customs Enforcement-related arrests, according to data from the U.S. Marshals Service and a senior administration official familiar with the matter.
