Forty-six arrested for immigration violations during ‘Truck Around And Find Out’ detail in Wyoming

The Laramie County Sheriff’s Office (LCSO) arrested dozens of people during an operation targeting commercial vehicle violations.

On April 25, 2026, LCSO shared details on a recent three-day commercial vehicle operation dubbed “Truck Around And Find Out: Operation Spring Break,” which was conducted in partnership with federal authorities.

During the detail, LCSO made 85 criminal arrests, including 46 arrests for immigration violations.

“Many of these folks are operating without commercial driver’s licenses (CDLs),” said Laramie County Sheriff Brian Kozak. “Unsafe trucks, bald tires, their trucking companies have been revoked or suspended and shouldn’t be operating at all. And so, we’re taking that serious, and we’re trying to help keep our roads safe in this county.”

LCSO said that one of the truck drivers discovered to be present in the U.S. illegally had no CDL and had parked in a spot marked “Absolutely No Truck, Trailer, Or Semi Parking Anytime.”

Kozak said that recent commercial vehicle enforcement operations have lowered the number of fatal crashes in Laramie County. He also said that the county’s violent crime rate is half of the national average.

A previous “Truck Around And Find Out” detail conducted by LCSO in February 2026 resulted in 32 arrests for immigration violations.

Last fall, Kozak and 25 LCSO deputies were sworn in by ICE and authorized to enforce immigration law under Title 8, Section 287(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act.
