- From January 20 to October 15, 2025: Approximately 1,677 arrests (per Deportation Data Project reports cited in media).
- December 2025 (Operation Metro Surge): Reports ranged from 400–700 arrests by mid-to-late December.
- Early January 2026: DHS and media sources indicate the total exceeded 1,000 arrests tied to the ongoing surge, with additional deployments of around 2,000 agents contributing to further operations (including a factory raid on January 2, 2026).
These figures come from federal data tracked by the Deportation Data Project, DHS statements, and reporting from outlets like the Star Tribune, CBS News, NBC News, and Fox News. Arrest numbers have risen sharply compared to prior years, with 2025 seeing double the arrests of equivalent periods in 2024 in some metrics.Note that exact totals can vary by source and timeframe, and operations are ongoing as of January 7, 2026.
