ICE agents make two arrests at pre-school graduation ceremony with children 'heard crying' as they're carted off

Two adults were arrested by ICE agents at a Maryland preschool graduation ceremony, drawing condemnation from top elected officials in the state.

Children were allegedly heard 'screaming' when the arrests took place on Thursday in the parking lot of Commodore John Rodgers Elementary School in Baltimore.

Video taken by a witness shows two agents holding a man down on the pavement as they tried to get his arms behind his back so they could cuff him, while the woman recording shouted, 'This is school property! It's against the law!'

Last month, the City of Baltimore signed an emergency bill prohibiting federal agents from operating and conducting arrests in 'sensitive locations like public schools.'

Another video taken by a witness from a different angle shows the agents taking a woman into custody after the man was arrested as parents and young children scurry by.

School officials told Maryland Senate President Bill Ferguson that the people who were arrested drove into the parking lot while being pursued by ICE agents.

In a video Ferguson posted to X, he said that the arrested individuals had their children in the backseat, who screamed as their parents were ripped from the car.

The state senator added that 'heroic educators' brought the children inside the school as the arrest took place, 'to try to protect them from these unbelievable and out-of-control federal agents.' The agents quickly left after taking the parents into custody.

“School officials told Maryland Senate President Bill Ferguson that the people who were arrested drove into the parking lot while being pursued by ICE agents.”

That certainly paints a different picture than the headline would make you think happened.

“Preschool Graduation”

What? This is all part of the nauseating “Everybody gets a trophy” crowd.

Yeah - when it comes to making criminals pay for their crimes - optics is what we should worry about....the optics are, break the law, run from the law, pay the price

Perhaps reading the story might relieve you of your ignorant comment.

ICE was in pursuit and the criminal illegals drove onto school property where they were caught and arrested.

1. ICE had no idea there was a ceremony going on.

2. Driving onto a school parking lot when being pursued is not a get out of deportation free card.

3. Arresting and deporting illegals is exactly the optics I voted for.

Who cares about optics? The lawbreakers should understand that they can be rounded up and deported anywhere and at any time.

“ I wonder if these are the optics they really want?”

I want these optics. Let these criminals know they aren’t safe from arrest anywhere.

Would you feel the same if they’d robbed a bank?

while the woman recording shouted, ‘This is school property! It’s against the law!’
