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.

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.
