Video shows man being pulled from car by ICE, Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis originally appeared on Bring Me The News.
A man was apparently arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on Friday morning in Minneapolis.
In a video obtained by Bring Me The News, arresting officers in Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) and Border Patrols vests remove a man from a vehicle, put him in handcuffs and move him to a black SUV with flashing police lights. Witnesses can be heard demanding to see a warrant, but none was presented, and officers said little in response.
A woman in the vehicle with the man exits the vehicle and screams at the Border Patrol and ERO agents, saying they should have a warrant. Another woman in the background of the video repeatedly cries: “This is what it looks like when our human rights are taken away.”
The video was captured around 8:30 a.m. Friday by Cynthia Daggett near the corner of Douglas and Hennepin avenues, behind the Walker Art Center.
Officers from U.S. Border Patrol and Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO), a division of ICE and Homeland Security, arrest a man in Minneapolis on Friday morning.
At this time, the man’s identity is unknown, as is the reason behind his arrest.
Spokespeople for the Minneapolis Police Department and the Hennepin County Sheriff’s Office told Bring Me The News that the two local law enforcement agencies weren’t involved.
Bring Me The News also spoke with the Department of Homeland Security and ICE, requesting comment, providing details on the time and location of the arrest, and sharing the video with them. However, neither would provide any information.
The ICE spokesperson said the department is unable to provide information about an arrest without the detainee’s full name, date of birth or “A-Number,” a nine-digit number used as identification.
This statement was provided on behalf of ICE: “U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers and agents are on the streets every day, prioritizing public safety by locating, arresting, and removing criminal alien offenders and immigration violators from our neighborhoods. All aliens in violation of U.S. immigration law may be subject to arrest, detention and if found removable by final order, removed from the U.S.”
ERO is a division of ICE that arrests, detains and removes undocumented citizens who are perceived threats to public safety and immigration enforcement.
ICE maintains an online database of high-profile arrests, but it doesn’t currently list any recent arrests in Minneapolis.
