ICE detain Native American--punch him repeatedly even after complying with face scan. [View all]



@LongTimeHistory
ICE detain Native American—punch him repeatedly even after complying with face scan.

Mother brought passport & birth certificate but agents didn't care—just joked that he "wasn’t really from here."

"Police can you help us?" she begs officers just watching. "We're citizens!"

Jose "Beto" Roberto Ramirez was born in the U.S.—and is a member of the Red Lake Band of Chippewa Indians located in north central Minnesota. #DemsUnited

"The arrest was streamed live on Facebook and comes a day after the fatal shooting of a U.S. citizen by an ICE agent."

"We just got swarmed up on and blocked in, and there were about 20 ICE agents who came after us, and that’s when I started recording."

"As they were scanning his face, another agent came and punches him, and they just started hitting him."
