() Caleb Vitello, the acting director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, has been removed from his job, has confirmed through DHS sources.

Vitello’s removal comes as President Donald Trump has expressed anger and frustration over the number of arrests of migrants being made by ICE since he took office. Raids conducted by ICE in cities like Chicago and other cities with high migrant populations began immediately after Trump took office.

But amid reports that Trump and his “border czar” Tom Homan expected between 1,200 and 1,500 arrests to be made per day across the country, the number of migrant apprehensions has diminished in recent weeks. According to reports, the Trump administration was seeking individual ICE offices to make 75 arrests per day.

Vitello has been reassigned within the agency, multiple media outlets reported on Friday.

This is a developing story. will update the story as more information becomes available.
