How many immigrants have been arrested? See which Texas cities had ICE raids this weekend
ICE raid in Newark nabs both illegal immigrants and US citizens
ICE rounded up illegal migrants and U.S. citizens in a raid in Newark, New Jersey, just days President Trump took office.
Within a week of Donald Trump’s second term as president, several raids were conducted by ICE agents throughout Texas as well as the rest of the U.S. Upon entering office last Monday, Trump delivered on a campaign promise and issued an executive order to “protect the American people against invasion.” His administration has said the aggressive deportation efforts would prioritize “violent offenders.”
The Drug Enforcement Agency, the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives assisted with the Texas operations.
An ICE spokesperson confirmed the raids in North Texas in an emailed statement to Texas Public Radio:
“U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement along with our federal law enforcement partners began conducting enhanced targeted operations today in North Texas and the state of Oklahoma to enforce U.S. immigration law and preserve public safety and national security by keeping potentially dangerous criminal aliens out of our communities.“
How many undocumented immigrants have been arrested?
Beginning Thursday, Jan. 23, ICE has reported single-day U.S. statistics for the number of individuals arrested and charged with a crime as well as those detained.
- Jan. 23: 538 arrests, 373 detainers lodged
- Jan. 24: 593 arrests, 449 detainers lodged
- Jan. 25: 286 arrests, 421 detainers lodged
- Jan. 26: 956 arrests, 554 detainers lodged
Similar operations occurred in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, New Jersey and New York, according to various news reports.
It is unclear how many of these arrests and detainments occurred in Texas. However, several cities across the Lone Star State saw these “enhanced targeted operations” on Sunday.
Where did the ICE raids happen in Texas?
Officials have yet to confirm how many undocumented immigrants were apprehended in Texas Sunday. However, local news outlets suggest the following areas have been subjected to the raids:
How many undocumented immigrants are in Texas?
About 1.6 million unauthorized immigrants reside in Texas, according to July 2024 data in a Pew Research Center report.

ICE conducts 'targeted enforcement' in Austin over weekend
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Drug Enforcement Administration conducted “targeted enforcement actions” in Austin and other cities on Sunday, the DEA Houston division confirmed.
“The DEA Houston division assisted DHS with their targeted enforcement actions. We’ve assisted in several cities to include Austin,” said DEA spokesperson Sally Sparks in a text message to KUT News.
The DEA Houston division operates in a large swath of Texas, all the way from the southern border to as far north as Waco.
The division posted photos associated with the operations on X, formerly known as Twitter, Sunday.
According to ICE, enforcement operations involve “the identification, arrest, detention and removal of aliens who are subject to removal or are unlawfully present in the United States.” KUT News has reached out to Homeland Securities Investigations for further details about Sunday’s operations.
The news of ICE’s activities in Austin comes just over a week after Trump administration “border czar” Tom Homan said ICE would begin conducting illegal immigration enforcement raids. Homan said those raids would begin Tuesday, Jan. 21, and identified Chicago as an early target in an interview with Fox News.
“We’re going to take the handcuffs off ICE and let them go arrest criminal aliens. That’s what’s gonna happen,” Homan said.
ICE confirmed to the Texas Newsroom that operations are also underway in North Texas, where dozens of individuals were arrested over the weekend.
KXAN was first to report the news of ICE’s operations in Austin.
This is a developing story.
