Nearly 70 people were arrested in Washington, D.C. on Saturday night, as President Donald Trump’s crackdown on crime continues.

The White House shared the arrest numbers with Fox News on Sunday. A total of 68 people were arrested on Saturday night.

According to officials, 15 illegal firearms were seized. Some of the many charges included aggravated assault, assault on a police officer, and resisting arrest.

Other charges included fugitive from justice, felony grand larceny, and possession of a controlled substance.

Additional arrestees were accused of fleeing from law enforcement and driving with a revoked permit.

Three homeless encampments were also cleared on Saturday. No arrests were recorded, and the dismantlings happened without incident, a White House official said.
