NEWARK, N.J. (WPIX) – U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents raided a New Jersey seafood store on Thursday, according to Newark Mayor Ras Baraka. The store owner told Nexstar's WPIX that a U.S. military veteran was among the people detained. ‘Newark will not stand by idly’: Mayor responds after ICE raid Store owner Luis Janota said 10 or 12 ICE agents entered the retail area after receiving complaints, and were looking for documentation. They did not ask for anyone specific, he said. “I was confused; they took three people who did not have any documentation on them," Janota said. "I asked them [the agents] what documentation they were looking for, and they said it was a license or a passport. I thought, who walks around with a passport?" Janota said three people were taken into custody, and some received a court date to appear before a judge. "One of the guys was a military veteran, and the way he looked to me was because he was Hispanic. He is Puerto Rican and the manager of our warehouse. It looked to me like they were specifically going after certain kinds of people — not every kind, because they did not ask me for documentation for my American workers, Portuguese workers, or white workers," Janota said. NJ senators ‘deeply concerned’ about ICE raid in Newark The raid comes after President Donald Trump signed an executive order on his first day in office stating that federal immigration authorities can arrest people at sensitive locations. Newark Mayor Ras Baraka issued a statement Thursday afternoon condemning the incident, which read in part: “This egregious act is in plain violation of the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which guarantees ‘the right of the people be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures.’ Newark will not stand by idly while people are being unlawfully terrorized.” An ICE spokesperson released the following statement: "U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement may encounter U.S. citizens while conducting field work and may request identification to establish an individual’s identity as was the case during a targeted enforcement operation at a worksite on Jan. 23 in Newark, New Jersey. This is an active investigation and per ICE policy, we cannot discuss ongoing investigations."
