Hmong American man's ICE arrest

Authorities in Ramsey County, Minnesota, are investigating the arrest of a Hmong American man by ICE agents as a potential case of kidnapping and false imprisonment.

A viral video showed federal officers dragging the US citizen from his home in freezing weather wearing only boxer shorts.

The man, identified as ChongLy Thao, was reportedly taken at gunpoint without a warrant before agents realized they had the wrong person.

The incident has sparked outrage and calls for greater accountability for federal immigration enforcement actions.
