The FBI says it caught every name on its Ten Most Wanted list. The last man caught has ties to Tren de Aragua. That is the Venezuelan gang active across the U.S.

FBI Director Kash Patel gave the news at a Senate hearing on Tuesday. He said agents caught Anibal Alexander Canelon Aguirre in Venezuela over the weekend. The FBI listed him as 49 years old when it added him to the Top Ten list in March, so he may be a year older now.

"We've captured 10 of 10," Patel told senators. "Nobody in FBI history has done that."

Patel did not say where in Venezuela agents found him. He did not say how the arrest happened. He also did not name any Venezuelan officials who may have helped. He left those details out.

Agents call Canelon Aguirre by two nicknames. They call him "The Engineer." They also call him "Prometheus." The FBI says he ran a scheme called ATM jackpotting. That means he used computer viruses. The viruses made cash machines spit out money on command.

The FBI says Canelon Aguirre led crews that hit banks. Those crews worked across the United States since at least 2024. The FBI says the stolen cash helped fund Tren de Aragua. The gang has spread far past Venezuela in recent years. Agents have also arrested Tren de Aragua members in Texas. Those arrests happened in San Antonio, Dallas, and Houston.

A federal court in Nebraska built the case. A judge signed his arrest warrant on December 9, 2025.

He faces several charges. One is a plan to trick banks out of money. In plain terms, that is bank fraud. Another charge is a plan to break into bank computer systems. That charge is called bank burglary. He also faces a charge for breaking computer systems on purpose. One more charge is money laundering. That means hiding where stolen cash came from.

One charge stands out from the rest. The government says he helped a terrorist group. Leaders named Tren de Aragua a terrorist group in 2025. That label gives federal agents more tools to chase the gang. It also lets courts hand out longer sentences to anyone tied to the group.

Federal agents say the gang first grew out of a prison in Venezuela. It later spread into cities across the United States and other countries.

The FBI put Canelon Aguirre on its Top Ten list back in March. He was the first person added mainly for computer crimes. Most names on that list in the past were tied to violent crimes like murder. The FBI had offered a $1 million reward for tips on his location.

The FBI started its Top Ten list in 1950. It is one of the oldest tools the agency uses to find wanted people. Getting a name on the list means the FBI wants extra tips from the public. It also means agents treat the case as a top priority.

Patel also said his agency has caught far more Top Ten fugitives than before. He told senators the number is two and a half times higher than under the last administration. He did not list every name to back up that count.

Canelon Aguirre should appear in a U.S. court once he lands here. No court date is set yet. It is not clear when he will be sent to the United States.

Everyone is presumed innocent until proved otherwise.
