An immigration raid on Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket on Tuesday resulted in 40 arrests, according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. ICE said that the people arrested on the Massachusetts islands included a gang member and a sex offender.

Among those apprehended were a ”documented member of the notorious MS-13 street gang and at least one child sex offender," officials said.

With the help of the FBI and the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, ICE agents made several stops on Martha's Vineyard, though the agency has not commented on the reason and breadth of the arrests.
