ICE incident logs, internal data releases, or published statistics corroborate counts of 66 vehicular attacks in the period Jan 21, 2025–Jan 7, 2026 and 2 in the same prior-year period, supporting the 3,200% increase calculation.
Official DHS press releases state that from January 21, 2025 to January 7, 2026, ICE law enforcement officers experienced 66 vehicular attacks, compared with 2 during the same period the previous year. Both the January 8, 2026 and January 15, 2026 DHS releases explicitly describe this as a 3,200% increase in vehicular attacks. Mathematically, going from 2 to 66 incidents is a 3,200% increase ((66−2)/2 × 100 = 3,200%). Based on these primary sources and the correct calculation, the statement matches the official data and is numerically accurate. The verdict is True because the claim precisely reflects DHS’s reported figures and the percentage increase is computed correctly.
