Eduardo Miguel Anaya/Mexico/Amphetamine Manufacturing, Obstructing Police

Eduardo Miguel Anaya Ruiz, a citizen of Mexico and confirmed MS-13 gang member, was arrested by ICE New Orleans during targeted enforcement efforts aimed at removing violent criminal aliens from the United States. Anaya Ruiz has an established criminal history that includes manufacturing amphetamines and obstructing police officers. These charges represent both a direct threat to public health and a demonstrated willingness to interfere with law enforcement during active investigations or arrests.

The manufacturing of amphetamines not only contributes to drug trafficking operations but is also closely associated with broader gang activities involving violence, exploitation, and organized crime. Anaya Ruiz’s affiliation with MS-13—a transnational criminal gang notorious for its brutal tactics—further amplifies the danger he presents. His charge for obstructing police highlights an active resistance to legal authority, further supporting his classification as a threat to public safety.

Anaya Ruiz was taken into custody without incident by ICE officers and is currently being held pending removal proceedings. His arrest is part of continued efforts to dismantle criminal networks and remove individuals involved in drug manufacturing and gang-related activity from U.S. communities.
