U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested 309 people during a four-day operation in Palm Beach County from July 6 through July 10, 2026. The operation was a joint effort involving federal, state, and local law-enforcement agencies that made more than 100 agents available. The Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office participated in the operation under the state's 287(g) immigration enforcement agreements mandated under Governor Ron DeSantis. Of the 309 arrested, only 11 had legal violations beyond their immigration status, such as DUI, drug charges, or driving without a license. One person was identified as a suspected member of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua. The arrests represent the largest ICE operation in Palm Beach County since January 2025.
