40 People Arrested in ICE Operation on Nantucket, Vineyard, Agency Says

  • U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested about 40 people on May 27, 2025, on Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket with support from federal agencies including the FBI and DEA.
  • The arrests followed increased White House pressure to raise daily immigration detentions, expanding targets beyond those with criminal records to include immigrants without offenses.
  • Federal agents conducted stops using unmarked vehicles and enlisted the U.S. Coast Guard to transport detainees off the islands, while local police were not involved in the operation.
  • ICE stated that the detainees included a confirmed MS-13 gang member and one individual involved in child-related offenses, while some legal residents were detained temporarily but released after their immigration status was verified.
  • The arrests prompted protests and heightened vigilance among island institutions and schools, with calls from community leaders for immigrant residents to know their rights amid ongoing enforcement activity.
