Story summary

On Sunday morning in Evanston, a Chicago suburb, ICE agents detained a US citizen they mistakenly believed to be a fugitive. Five ICE agents in separate vehicles approached the man based on a warrant for someone with a Chicago address. After the man refused to provide identification and resisted arrest, the agents attempted to handcuff him but realized their mistake once he identified himself as a US citizen. The man was left injured, with wounds to his head, neck, and teeth, and had to be taken to the hospital. Witnesses reported seeing agents pinning the victim to the ground during the scuffle. This incident occurred on the same day ICE shot another person in Austin, Texas, raising questions about the agency's methods and accountability.
