U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials could move in on Charlotte, N.C., as early as Saturday amid President Trump’s immigration crackdown across the country, according to local law enforcement.
Mecklenburg County Sheriff Garry McFadden was notified by two CBP officials Wednesday that agents could arrive over the weekend or early next week, and that officials have not disclosed any information about their operations, according to a statement from McFadden’s office.
The statement continued, noting the police department “will remain vigilant and continue to address and focus on the needs of our community as it does each and every day,” but his officers will not be “involved with any measures” of enforcement with CBP or Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
