According to eyewitness video, at least one person was detained during an immigration enforcement operation Sunday afternoon at a Speedway gas station in St. Paul.
St. Paul native Angel Castillo Saldana arrived to the gas station just after the incident unfolded, and told FOX 9 what he saw.
“I got here to a lot of people confused, that’s what I got here to. Not knowing what just happened. I seen some videos of them taking him by all fours, a U.S. citizen born here in St. Paul, for exercising his rights,” Saldana said. “Recording ICE on a private property, and they took him. They grabbed him by all fours like he was a f****ing animal and took him. For exercising his rights, that’s b******t.”
The man’s girlfriend, who shared videos of the incident with FOX 9, said he was taken away in a vehicle. She says he was eventually released from custody Sunday night.
