In Ma. ICE Detainees Refuse Coronavirus Test, Launch Violent Riot

In this Tuesday, Feb. 7, 2017, photo released by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement shows foreign nationals being arrested this week during a targeted enforcement operation conducted by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) aimed at immigration fugitives, re-entrants and at-large criminal aliens in Los Angeles. Immigrant advocates on Friday, Feb. 10, 2017, decried a series of arrests that federal deportation agents said aimed to round up criminals in Southern California but they believe mark a shift in enforcement under the Trump administration.

From Bristol County Sheriffs Dept

A Massachusetts detention center was heavily damaged after Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detainees rioted violently in response to news they would be tested for coronavirus after reporting symptoms, authorities say.

Approximately 10 detainees held in the C. Carlos Carreiro Immigration Detention Center in Dartmouth, Mass., claimed to be experiencing symptoms of coronavirus and were referred to medical personnel, who informed the group they must be tested for the disease.

Local media were invited to survey the damage, which the Sheriff’s Office described as “extensive” and estimates at over $25,000.
