More than 460 illegal immigrants, including those with criminal histories that include sexual assault, domestic violence, drugs and weapons, have been arrested in the United States.

Fox News reports that the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement, ICE, made the arrests in the first days of President Donald Trump’s administration.

According to the report, information shows that between midnight January 21 and 9am January 22, a 33-hour period, ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations, ERO, arrested over 460 aliens.

Those arrested include individuals with criminal histories of sexual assault, robbery, burglary, aggravated assault, drugs and weapons offenses, resisting arrest and domestic violence.

Agents arrested nationals from a slew of countries, including Afghanistan, Angola, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Senegal and Venezuela.

Arrests took place across the U.S. including Illinois, Utah, California, Minnesota, New York, Florida and Maryland.

DAILY POST reports that Trump had vowed to deport from the US millions of illegal immigrants in the country. He has since issued an executive order to that effect.
