San Antonio ICE office dispatches up to 30 vehicles Sunday as agency confirms 'enhanced' operations
Between 25 and 30 government vehicles, some unmarked, gathered Sunday morning at San Antonio's Immigration and Customs Enforcement office before driving off to locations throughout the city, immigrant-rights activists report. The deployment appears to the first large-scale action at ICE's San Antonio office since the Wall Street Journal reported more than a week ago that the Trump administration planned deportation raids in San Antonio and in other large U.S. cities shortly after the inauguration. "As of now, there have been individual vehicles departing from [ICE's 3523 Crosspoint Drive field office], not multiple vans indicative of a mass raid," an organizer with an immigrant-rights group told the Current Sunday on condition of anonymity.
