CHARLESTON, W.VA.-West Virginia officials say Operation Country Roads has led to the removal of roughly 650 illegal immigrants from communities across the state, many of them with documented criminal histories. State and federal authorities describe the operation as a coordinated enforcement effort aimed at restoring public safety, targeting individuals linked to violent crimes, drug offenses, and repeat violations of the law. Officials say the initiative reflects a broader push to prioritize community safety while cracking down on organized criminal activity operating within state borders.
