Okay, before anyone jumps down my throat, I’m not defending this. It’s awful and shouldn’t happen.

That being said, reading the headline, I first got the impression that this was a case of them arresting and transporting a citizen. People should make sure to read the article.

When reached by CNN for comment, Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials denied their agents were involved.

“This was not a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement encounter,” a spokesperson for the agency said in a statement to CNN Friday afternoon.

The Chicago Police Department also told CNN it was not called to the school.

Wait so did this happen or didn’t it? I can see ICE denying it, even through incompetence. Both of them denying it seems strange, though.
