DALLAS, Texas -- Federal agents and local police have rounded up more than 100 members of street gangs in raids in North Texas cities, immigration officials announced Monday.
More than half of the 121 suspects were arrested on criminal charges, said ICE spokesman Carl Rusnok. The others were taken into custody on administrative, or immigration, violations.
Some gang members who were in the country illegally have been deported or are being processed for deportation. Others are being prosecuted for re-entering the United States after deportation, said ICE agent John Chakwin Jr.
