( NewsNation ) — Several Tren de Aragua (TDA) members were arrested in San Antonio on Saturday during a multi-agency raid on an apartment complex.
Individuals involved with the violent Venezuelan gang have been entering the United States illegally and have committed crimes across the nation.

“We are on to you, and we’re coming for you. We know where you are, and we’re coming for you,” McManus said following Saturday’s arrests.
The raid, which included local, state, and federal authorities, saw multiple Tren de Aragua members arrested after complaints alleging human trafficking, narcotics violations, and violent threats against building staff were made at the apartment complex.
According to police, 19 people were arrested; 16 Venezuelans and three U.S. citizens. Four were confirmed Tren de Aragua members and taken into custody by Homeland Security agents. Among those arrested, several of them had previously received deportation notices.
