Shocking footage captured the moment three taco truck workers were hauled away by a burly group of men claiming to be ICE agents.
Video of the interaction was shared by Memphis taco truck company Taconganas, which said the men 'entered one of our trucks and took away several of our employees' on Monday morning.
'We were not told beforehand, and we have not been told since,' the taco business said on Facebook.
The footage showed four men in jeans and hoodies walking up to the eatery and confronting three restaurant workers before escorting them away.
Some are wearing balaclavas and face coverings. None are wearing ICE uniforms.
ICE is yet to respond to the footage or confirm whether the men were sent by them.
The food truck, which insisted that it 'complies with federal and local immigration laws', said on social media that it has been in contact with the workers and 'they've been told they're being detained by ICE.'
'We don’t know if the men you see in the video work for ICE or for someone else. You’ll see they have no uniforms, do not show any badge or ID, and did not leave any identifying information or paperwork,' the taco business said.

That was my first thought.
ICE doesn’t disguise themselves like that. This is likely just a set up, very conveniently filmed (what a coincidence it was caught on camera) and released to the public, to smear ICE and Trump.
If it’s ICE and those taken away are illegal then what’s the big deal? If it’s a fake then what’s the big deal? I’ve got laundry to do, now THATS a big deal. 🤣
I wonder who the owner owes money to?
Yes. It does.
Even so, if true, which I doubt- I don’t want any human being, citizen or not, being hauled anywhere against their will by unidentified agencies or their contractors. Everyone needs a badge and a number.
There really are kidnapping schemes out there.
It doesn’t take any effort for an arresting official to identify themselves by agency and badge number.
So - is it a false flag or did ICE decide to get around the way folks keep leaking about their presence?
"eatery"... "restaurant" - how to paint a picture that didn't exist.
It was a food truck.
Sounds like they do not want their operation in that area to leak
“Shocking!” (Rolls his eyes)
Is that sarcasm, or do you so readily fall for leftist propaganda?
Main interaction occurs behind the camera, after which everyone immediately gets on their phones, brook no argument whatsoever, are 100% compliant, are even given both the opportunity to turn off all the kitchen appliances and handed their phones and the one guy who appears to be in charge HAS NO MASK (only one was wearing a mask, likely to protect his UC identity).
C’mon.
Except the employer says they’ve been in contact with the removed workers who state they are in ICE detention.
This probably means that the “burly guys” are reassigned from some other agency or that ICE is using contractors.
I’m also going to guess that DOGE has datamined various agencies and cross referenced them and knows a lot more about where illegals are than most of them realize.
Check
These guys were almost certainly NOT ICE agents.
Either they were folks pretending to be them and you had a kidnapping situation, or this entire video is a complete fraud, like Tawana Brawley or Jessie Smollett.
In Black Memphis, the food truck is a drug truck and competition removed the offending principles
