    ICE officers have conducted their first raid in New York City as part of President Donald Trump‘s crackdown on illegal migrants.

    Three people were taken into custody including a man with an international warrant for homicide in the Dominican Republic, officials told CNN.

    Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem attended Tuesday’s dawn raid and confirmed an an individual with kidnapping, assault and burglary charges was taken into custody.

    She shared footage of the swoop on X and vowed to clamp down on ‘dirtbags’. 

    ‘Dirtbags like this will continue to be removed from our streets,’ Noem wrote. ‘We are doing this right – doing exactly what President Trump promised the American people – making our streets safe.’

    A source also told DailyMail.com the operation targeted murderers, kidnappers, and individuals charged with assault and burglary.

    A photo shared by the New York DEA showed them on the scene in the Fordham Heights area of the Bronx.

    Officers have begun storming properties across the country in sanctuary cities like New York as part of Trump’s mass deportation scheme.

    Sanctuary cities including the Big Apple have become a haven for migrants who flock to them in the knowledge that officials there limit cooperation with federal immigration agents.

    Many have arrived by bus and plane from the southern border, with New York alone welcoming around 210,000 migrants in less than two years.

    The president has since said he ‘might have to consider’ pulling funding to sanctuary cities, which include the likes of Chicago, Los Angeles and Philadelphia.

    Trump, who ran on a mass deportation platform, has made immigration his first order of business since assuming office.

    ICE agents have arrested more than 3,500 people since the inauguration last Monday, Axios reports.

    On Friday, a senior official in the Trump administration revealed exclusive deportation and detainment data with DailyMail.com, including chilling details of dangerous criminals that were previously walking the streets freely.

    Among the worst of the worst to be picked up by ICE on Friday included Cesar Augusto Polanco, 59, a Dominican Republican national who was living free in Boston despite a criminal conviction for second-degree murder. 

    Almost 5,000 Homeland Security and Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) officers have been deployed by the Trump administration to carry out raids. 

    The operation in New York City involved DEA, Homeland Security and Department of Justice agents

    The raids come after President Trump signed an executive order permitting officers to storm sensitive locations such as churches and schools

    The raids have sparked fear in migrant communities, especially since Trump signed an executive order which will now permit raids in the likes of schools and churches.

    Many migrants are said to be in hiding, turning usually crowded factories, warehouses and grocery stores into ghost towns. 

    Frightened undocumented migrants began hunkering down after Trump took office for the second time last week, with dozens failing to turn up to work.

    Only 10 out of the usually 40 to 50 migrants workers attended their shifts at a factory in Joliet, Illinois last week, The Chicago Tribune reported, as six federal agencies swept the Greater Chicago area for ‘potentially dangerous criminal aliens’.

    The operations are being overseen by Trump’s hardline border Czar Tom Homan.

    He justified relaxing rules governing enforcement actions at ‘sensitive’ locations such as schools, churches and workplaces, saying it sends a clear message to illegal immigrants.

    ‘There are consequences of entering the country illegally. If we don’t show there are consequences, you’re never going to fix the border problem,’ Homan, who was on the ground in Chicago this weekend to oversee the bolstered ICE plans, told ABC News.

    However, the move was criticized by Catholic Charities USA which called for ‘dignity’ in dealing with the border crisis.

    ‘We recognize the need for just immigration enforcement and affirm the government’s obligation to carry it out in a targeted, proportional, and humane way,’ the organization wrote. 

    ‘However, non-emergency immigration enforcement in schools, places of worship, social service agencies, healthcare facilities, or other sensitive settings where people receive essential services would be contrary to the common good.

    ‘All people have a right to fulfill their duty to God without fear.’

    Meanwhile, the president is said to be underwhelmed with the current levels of incarceration and has directed officers to arrest between 1,200 and 1,500 people a day, the Washington Post reports.

    Trump ordered each of ICE’s field offices to make 75 arrests per day and managers would be held accountable for missing those targets.

    ICE insiders told the Washington Post they are concerned that the quotas make it more likely that agents will ‘engage in more indiscriminate enforcement tactics or face accusations of civil rights violations.’

    However, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt reportedly told the outlet, ‘your story is false,’ but did not elaborate.
