ICE arrest investigated as kidnapping

A major legal and political battle is unfolding in Minnesota after federal officers allegedly detained a naturalized U.S. citizen without proper authorization.

Ramsey County Attorney John Choi and Sheriff Bob Fletcher announced that they are looking into the actions of ICE agents who entered Thao's home during a January operation.

The investigation will examine whether the agents committed burglary and kidnapping in their efforts to identify undocumented individuals.

The case has drawn national attention to the Trump administration's aggressive enforcement tactics and the potential for civil rights violations against American citizens.
