国土安全部部长克里斯蒂·诺姆说移居周二在弗吉尼亚的突击搜查中，海关执法带来了“后果”。
“这是有后果的，”诺伊姆说，他在行动前汇报时在场。搜查得到了美国联邦调查局、缉毒署和酒精、烟草、火器和爆炸物管理局的协助。
美国广播公司新闻高级政治记者雷切尔斯科特在周二的两次有针对性的行动中嵌入冰。在第一站，官员们逮捕了一名男子，他们称该男子是非法入境的18街团伙成员。
在第二次行动中，特工拘留了一名男子，官员称该男子被判犯有性侵犯罪。他们说，这名男子曾两次被驱逐出境，并非法再次入境。
官员们说，两名未成年人和一名叔叔也在被突袭的住所内。特工说这位叔叔没有合法证件，并让他在两天内到移民局自首。
尽管美国政府表示，他们正在追捕他们所谓的“最糟糕的第一人”——有已知犯罪记录的非法入境者——但包括儿童在内的家庭成员正被卷入驱逐出境的不确定性之中。
公寓里的两个未成年人是美国公民，一位不愿透露身份的家庭成员告诉ABC新闻。
当被问及这两个未成年人会怎么样时，诺姆告诉美国广播公司新闻，“我们不知道他们还有什么其他家庭成员，这就是为什么他有两天时间去找到他们，并确保这些孩子和他们家庭中他们认为会保护他们安全的人在一起，并为他们树立一个更好的榜样。”
当被问及家庭分离的可能性时，诺姆说有“后果”，并补充说，“我们给他时间把这些孩子留给别人。”
During immigration raid, DHS Secretary Noem says ICE bringing 'consequences'
Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem said U.S.Immigrationand Customs Enforcement is bringing "consequences" during raids in Virginia on Tuesday.
"There is consequences," said Noem, who was present during the pre-operation debrief. The raids were assisted by the FBI, the Drug Enforcement Administration and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
ABC News Senior Political Correspondent Rachel Scott embedded with ICE during two targeted operations on Tuesday. During the first stop, officials arrested a man they say is a member of the 18th Street Gang who was in the country illegally.
The second operation saw agents detain a man who officials said had been convicted of sexual battery. The man, they said, had been deported twice and re-entered the country illegally.
Two minors and an uncle were also present in the raided residence, officials said. Agents said the uncle is undocumented and told him to turn himself into immigration authorities in two days.
While the administration says they are going after what they call the "the worst first" -- individuals with known criminal records who are in the country illegally -- family members including children are being swept into the uncertainty of the deportations.
The two minors in the apartment complex are American citizens, a family member who did not want to be identified, told ABC News.
Asked what would happen to the two minors, Noem told ABC News, "We don't know what other family members they have, that's why he has two days to go locate them and make sure these kids are with someone in their family that they believe will keep them safe and set a better example for them."
Pushed on the likelihood of the family being separated, Noem said there are "consequences," adding, "And we are giving him time to leave these children with someone else."
