Tampa St. Petersburg, FL, September 5, 2026 — In Springfield, Ohio, U.S. immigration agents have apprehended 380 individuals. This action follows the recent termination of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) protections for migrants from Haiti.

The arrests were carried out by immigration enforcement personnel in Springfield, Ohio. The operation resulted in the detention of 380 individuals, according to information provided.

The termination of TPS for Haitian nationals is a key factor preceding these enforcement actions. TPS is a program that allows foreign nationals from designated countries experiencing conditions that prevent their safe return to their home country to reside and work in the United States. The termination of this designation means that individuals who were previously protected under TPS are no longer eligible for that status and may be subject to immigration enforcement.

Specific details regarding the exact timeline of the arrests, the criteria used for targeting individuals, or the types of immigration statuses held by those arrested, beyond the context of TPS termination, were not provided in the summary. The names of the specific U.S. immigration agencies involved in conducting the arrests were also not specified.

The location of the arrests, Springfield, Ohio, is noted as the site of this large-scale immigration enforcement operation. Further information on the operational details, such as the duration of the operation or the specific outcomes beyond the number of arrests, was not detailed.
