Federal authorities have apprehended a 24-year-old individual, identified as a prominent member of the MS-13 gang, during an operation in Woodbridge, Virginia. The FBI announced the arrest on Thursday, though the suspect’s name remains undisclosed.
The arrest was described by Attorney General Pam Bondi as a successful and secure operation. She stated, “They executed a clean, safe operation and the bad guy is in custody.” She further emphasized the significance of the arrest, noting, “We got one of the worst of the worst of the MS-13 off the streets this morning.” Bondi expressed that both Virginia and the nation are now safer as a result.
President Donald Trump acknowledged the operation on his platform, TRUTH Social, complimenting those involved. “Great job by Pam Bondi, @FBIDirectorKash, Tom HOMAN, and Kristi N, on the capture of MS13 leader – A big deal!” he wrote.
