MIAMI — U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement director John Morton said Tuesday his agency deported nearly 400,000 individuals during the fiscal year that ended in September, the largest number of removals in the agency’s history.

Morton announced the fiscal 2011 numbers in Washington, saying about 55 percent of those deported had felony or misdemeanor convictions. Officials said the number of those deported who were convicted of crimes was up 89 percent from 2008.
