As the Trump administration ramped up its immigration crackdown, officials said 538 undocumented immigrants were arrested on Thursday. And two U.S. military planes flew deported migrants to Guatemala. The mayor of Newark, N.J., was critical of a raid by ICE agents in that city. NBC News' Gabe Gutierrez reports.
Chicago Public Schools said its officials erred Friday when they claimed immigration agents had gone to a school, mistaken information that caused alarm amid fears of a new White House administration. The agents who went to Hamline Elementary School were actually with U.S. Secret Service, and not Immigration and Customs Enforcement as district officials initially said.
“While this was a misunderstanding in terms of the specific branch of DHS, the school’s response demonstrates that our system, in partnership with community organizations, is prepared and ready to keep our students and staff safe,” Chicago Public Schools said. The mistaken report comes less than a week after President Donald Trump, who campaigned on deporting people who are in the country without authorization, was inaugurated on Monday.
