ICE Agents Leave 13-Year-Old Alone After Arrest: Controversy Erupts
Following a federal immigration operation in Waltham, Massachusetts, a 13-year-old boy was reportedly left unattended on a street after ICE agents arrested the adult he was with. While DHS claims the child’s parent was notified and declined to collect him, a city councilor disputes this, stating the officers left the child without assistance, prompting concerns about the agency’s handling of minors during such operations. This incident follows other recent reports of aggressive ICE enforcement actions in the area, leading to community outcry and accusations of heavy-handed tactics. The incident is part of a broader pattern of increased immigration enforcement under the current administration.
