An ICE official has arrested a Venezuelan illegal immigrant influencer who gained popularity on TikTok for encouraging other migrants to invade people's homes.
ICE's Detroit field office arrested Leonel Moreno and he is now in federal custody, an ICE official informed Planet Chronicle. He was apprehended by the agency's fugitive ops team in Columbus, Ohio.
Earlier this week, Moreno's TikTok account, which had over half a million followers, went inactive, but his presence on Instagram remained.
"I contemplated invading a house in the US," he stated in the TikTok video. "I discovered that if a house is vacant, we can take it."
He had also mocked people who work for a living.

Officials have informed Fox that although Venezuelans can still be deported to Mexico, many of them typically return to the US as "gotaways."
