UPDATE: NBC News has cited three “senior law enforcement officials” as saying that the immigrants arrested by ICE in Arizona are NOT related to the assault on two police officers in New York. You can read the latest information on the case here.
The manhunt for the illegal immigrant’s Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg released without bail after they were arrested for violently attacking two NYPD officers has resulted in the recapture of three of the criminals.
Fox News reported late Monday that Immigration and Customs Enforcement sources confirmed that three migrants allegedly involved in the beating of the officers in Times Square were arrested by ICE and Homeland Security Investigations at a Greyhound bus station in Phoenix.
The identities of the suspects have not been released, and for some odd reason, their faces were blurred out in a photo taken in Phoenix.

“Four migrants involved in the mob beating in New York were believed to be headed to California after the incident. Darwin Andres Gomez, 19; Kelvin Servita Arocha, 19; Wilson Juarez, 21, and Yorman Reveron, 24, fled for California after being released without bail. Jhoan Boada, 22; Jandry Barros, 21, and Yohenry Brito, 24, were later apprehended.” Fox News reported.
Despite the attack on the NYPD officers being captured on video, Bragg claimed there was insufficient evidence to hold the illegal immigrants.

“While the video is shocking and disturbing, in order to secure convictions in the court of law, it is essential that we conclusively identify each defendant,” the Democratic prosecutor said last week. “In a court of law, our profound obligation is to make sure we have the right people charged with the right crimes. I don’t think New Yorkers want to charge the wrong person.”
Bragg would soon change his tune in response to the fierce backlash to his decision, prompted in part by the following photo of one uninvited foreign national signaling his sentiments to the American people as he walks free from a New York City jail:

“Our office continues to work with law enforcement to bring everyone responsible for these heinous attacks to justice,” the left-wing DA said over the weekend. “We are simultaneously preparing to present charges to the Grand Jury on Tuesday and will update the public as soon as legally permissible. We will not rest until every person who assaulted a police officer in this awful attack is held accountable.”
Here’s a quick sampling of responses to the story, as seen on X:
If this does turn out to be illegals who beat the NYPD officers, does anyone think NYC will actually make sure they face justice or get deported?
And if they are deported what would stop them from illegally breaking into the US again?

Hey Ben, I saw another comment. Why are their images blurred?@ICEgov American citizens should be able to rightly and easily identify dangerous illegal entrants who are criminals.
We want clear mugshots.

This is all theatrics to make it look like they care about criminal migrants because it’s a hot issue.
They don’t.
