Videos show ICE agents mistakenly detaining a U.S. citizen in Evanston
ICE agents caught on camera brutalizing a U.S. citizen in Evanston, Illinois. ICE officers stopped a man while he was out walking, forcefully restraining him. The moment agents realized he was a U.S. citizen, they abandoned the scene shouting at onlookers to "step the f*** away" as they dispersed.
Chris Freeman13Turns out that the ICE agents are the ones who are the worst of the worst.
elruben.bsky.social11Their aim was to hurt a black man they did and they left. Misidentified my butt!

JuneSongbird10Where the hell is an ambulance?
Staid Winnow4As if "mistaking someone for an immigrant" is an acceptable way of treating an immigrant that way.
death-b4-dishonor.bsky.social4"Law Enforcement" leaving the scene of a false arrest altercation with an innocent citizen in physical distress. How is this consistent with civic reponsibility of law enforcement and "no one is above the law?" When will it be enough?
Harebrained21Abolish and Prosecute every single one of them.
MisterJayEm7Your citizenship is irrelevant to this fundamentally racist policy
🇲🇽🕷️rustbelt rebel🕷️🇲🇽4This makes me absolutely ill. I couldn’t watch but a few seconds of the video- yes the man is black. Today is an ‘I can’t stop crying’ day dear GOD when is this ever going to end.
𝘚𝘪2There will come a time, when this administration is out of power, and replaced by one that will be investigating every single person involved within ICE, and the previous administration and legal will be all over them like a rash.... You'd hope..
www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026... Of course they didn’t “mistakenly take him for a fugitive.” They profiled him as brown.
Meh Pluribus Unum (Alli) 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈4"Man left bloodied and hurt"... by whom or what? I detest the "accessory after the fact to cop crimes" media voice.
als0624.bsky.social4Trumps SS Squad does it again!! What’s is it going to take for America to wake up! Apparently 70,000 in Concentration Camps, people getting killed and hurt doesn’t seem to matter!
Douglas Montgomery3There needs to be criminal charges, civil charges, damages etc. Trump administration doesn’t care anyway. it’s just deficit spending of our tax dollars. 🤷🏻♂️ But “whoopsie” is not enough when you wrongly assault and injure someone.🤔
☮️ Deriter ♻️2It must be tough remembering which uniform their wearing.
🇺🇸🇩🇪🇮🇹🇲🇽🇪🇸2The AI targeting and profile system is not working guys. You’re stopping, assaulting, and killing US citizens. You’re filling the concentration camps with innocent people who were following the law as written (something you should study).
91 Alpha1To them he looked “wet”.
Abbey Rhodes5ICE agents are Trump's brutal army. When local cops assist them, they are aiding and abetting the enemy of the people.
Grandpa3Racist nazis are in America with a license to kill.
Steven3They are ramping up the violence because they want the fear. This is straight from V for Vendetta, 1930 Germany, Italy; China, any right wing dictatorships in South America, Africa. Stupid, because land doesn’t vote and the voters live in cities. You’re stirring things up for them to vote.
An eyewitness has described how two federal immigration agents allegedly beat and badly injured a US citizen in a botched arrest attempt in Illinois, and left the man dazed and bleeding on the ground as they walked away after realizing their apparent mistake. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
Joshy Poo3Nothing they say can be believed anymore after they've murdered random people and subsequently got caught lying about why. As far as I'm concerned we should assume they wounded this guy for fun until they can prove they didn't, based on their track record of random acts of cruelty.
JIM2They need to be fired
A Word1Their white hate fingerprints are all over this case
8571.bsky.social1He wasn’t “injured,” The Guardian. He was “attacked.”
Mel in the mountains1Didn't anyone make the point that THEY AREN'T SUPPOSED TO BEAT UP THE RIGHT PERSON EITHER??? THAT'S POLICE BRUTALITY!!
Dona Flaca1This is sickening but reading the article, I’m even more disgusted by the lack of action by the Democratic mayor, the police chief, and everyone else running that town. WTF is it going to take for these elected officials to ACT on behalf of THE PEOPLE they represent?

Lu 💙3Which is their real purpose isn’t it!
ICE goons in Evanston, IL sent a U.S. citizen to the hospital after they mistakenly tackled him and punched him in the face while he screamed that he was a citizen and then left him alone on the ground to fend for himself once they realized their mistake. Pure fascist brutality.
ICE Goons Tracker12Violence is the measure of FIRST resort for ICE goons.
Steve B. Garrett1We’re going to need a lot of hammers. And some tarps and shovels.
MantaHunk 🌎🏳️🌈☮️🟧12I tackled him, punched him in the face while he screamed that he was an ICE agent, and then I left him alone on the ground to fend for himself once I realized my mistake.
LedaEM2They don’t care!! U.S. citizens are in peril too.
CathyMac2Yup. Beat them and leave them bloodied in the streets.
calizaybak.bsky.social2@schumer.senate.gov What reforms do you think would reform this?
Fuck ICE. No one merits this treatment, citizen or not. But I think we all know the reason they focused their destructive attention on this man. It’s racial terrorism and, I think, meant for public consumption.… www.nytimes.com/video/us/100...
Maybell Romero13We’re supposed to get the message that, if you’re black and brown, they can do this to us without any reason, and they can get away with it.
annothery.bsky.social2It’s racial. It’s thuggery. 
intrusive_thoughts_librarian 💭📚2"Mistakenly" is HEAVY lifting. The ICE thugs are what they DO. A system is what it does.
Tooey1I absolutely can’t imagine the rage and anger these thugs feel to commit this heinous act on another human being.
