Minneapolis, MN – Operation Metro Surge operations in Minnesota are coming to an end.

Border Czar Tom Homan delivered an update today in Minneapolis, saying the mission “has yielded the results” officials were seeking. The immigration enforcement activity has drawn heightened scrutiny after two Minnesotans were killed in separate incidents involving federal agents. Homan said teams are working to de-escalate tensions on the streets and issued a warning to protesters, urging them not to interfere with ongoing federal operations.

Homan says a small footprint of personnel will remain to close out and transition command and control back to the ICE field office. Homan plans to stay in Minnesota to oversee the drawdown.
