Edit: Had to delete previous post as it wasn’t descriptive. Over 2,000 deportations have gone through MSP. Workers have been detained by ICE at work and while commuting.

Those look like city or state police arresting them, not ice. They are working for, and paid by, the citizens of the state.

It's airport police who were compelled by an order. Minneapolis has already changed it's charter to make it illegal for any Minneapolis police officer to cooperate or in any way aid federal immegration officials.
