WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Non-border immigration arrests in the United States fell by 10 percent in the year to September from a year earlier, the latest U.S. data shows, a drop that the head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) said was partly due to the diversion of the agency's resources to the border.
The figures were included in an annual ICE enforcement report reviewed by Reuters prior to publication and released on Wednesday.
