El Paso removed 20+ squatters from a vacant home using new law enforcement powers, finding stolen goods, drugs, and arrests.
On October 16, 2025, El Paso authorities removed over 20 squatters from a vacant home on Hemmingway Drive and McCombs Street, using new powers granted by Senate Bill 1333, which allows law enforcement to enter without a court order based on probable cause.
The operation, involving multiple agencies, followed a report of unauthorized occupancy, drug activity, and prostitution.
Authorities found stolen property, arrested five individuals on outstanding warrants, and one for marijuana possession.
The home, recently purchased by a new owner, had been occupied by 20 to 25 people, some hiding or fleeing, with the property barricaded.
Footage of the raid circulated online, highlighting the issue of squatting and the new legal tools available to address it.
