In a photo provided by the FBI Mobile, at least three of the suspected illegal aliens were smiling as they were speaking to agents.
However, the FBI said some of the individuals had criminal histories, including gang associations and domestic violence by strangulation charges.
The immigration enforcement operation was one of several in Baldwin County.
The Gulf of America HSTF is made up of agents from Homeland Security Investigations, the FBI, Border Patrol, the ATF, Enforcement and Removal Operations, the DEA, as well as state and local sheriffs' offices and police departments.
Agents have arrested over 500 suspected illegal aliens in the region.
