Reuters: ICE officers in Minnesota directed not to interact with 'agitators' in new orders

ICE will focus enforcement on immigrants with criminal histories and avoid engaging agitators after two fatal shootings, shifting Border Patrol to a support role, officials said.

  • ICE officers in Minnesota received new guidance to avoid interacting with "agitators" during immigration operations, aiming to reduce tensions after two fatal shootings of U.S. citizens.
  • The guidance directs ICE officers to target only immigrants with criminal charges or convictions, marking a shift from broader immigration sweeps.
  • Marcos Charles, a top ICE official, stated that all targets must have a "criminal nexus" for arrests.
  • This operational shift follows previous policies that allowed ICE to arrest non-criminals, which were reversed under the current administration.
