DES MOINES, Iowa — Today, ICE Des Moines arrested Ian Andre Roberts, a criminal illegal alien from Guyana in possession of a loaded handgun, $3,000 in cash and a fixed blade hunting knife. At the time of his arrest, Roberts was working as the Superintendent of Des Moines Public Schools despite being an illegal alien with a final order of removal and no work authorization.

During a targeted enforcement operation on Sept. 26, 2025, officers approached Roberts in his vehicle after identifying himself, but he sped away. Officers later discovered his vehicle abandoned near a wooded area. State Patrol assisted in locating the subject and he was taken into ICE custody.

Roberts has existing weapon possession charges from February 5, 2020. Roberts entered the United States in 1999 on a student visa and was given a final order of removal by an immigration judge in May of 2024.

The investigation into how Roberts acquired the handgun is being turned over to the ATF. It is a violation of federal law for those in the U.S. without legal status to possess a firearm and ammunition.

Supporters of DEI will do anything, including illegal things, to advance their crap agenda. That's what they're all about! How warm and fuzzy for public education supporters.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with having a knife at baseline, but when you’re also illegally possessing a gun, then it becomes suspect.

Arrest those that put him there.

And if he was elected, arrest the voters.

How the hell does someone like that even get in a position like that? That's fricked up.

He is referred to as Dr. Robert’s ? Wonder what his credentials are and where he received his education ? Did they even do a background check ?

Per Wiki:

In French, "Des Moines" means "of the monks" or "from the monks".

Feeling like the "son I am disappointed" meme comes in more than one color. I was not aware Ian was that widespread of a first name

The phrase "hunting knife" just sounds a lot like "assault rifle" to me. All about deporting the dude, just funny.

The state is mostly hardworking and typically conservative, but they have a handful of looney enclaves, especially around their colleges

This is going to create some cognitive dissonance for some people. One the one hand, he’s an “immigrant” and we should celebrate his being here. On the other hand, he had a GUN, and needs to be removed from society.

This just proves undocumented people get paid in our system and vote in our system fraudulently

Apparently no one, or if they did it was ignored for the sake of DEI.
