Local and state officials in New York are expressing outrage after dozens of federal agents carried out a US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid in Manhattan’s Chinatown on Tuesday.
Eyewitnesses accounts and video footage captured the chaotic scenes in Lower Manhattan on Tuesday afternoon, where masked and armed federal agents were seen detaining several individuals near Canal Street, while crowds of New Yorkers gathered, protesting against the action. Military-style vehicles were also seen driving through the area.
