Sources tell MPR News that the police chief of St. Peter intervened to prevent federal agents from taking a local resident who was observing ICE enforcement actions into detention. It is believed to the first time local police in Minnesota intervened in a federal law enforcement action since the ICE and border patrol surge began here two months ago.
Like the other person said I think the question was about the ICE car
But I work in 911 dispatch, so I spend a good chunk of my night getting vehicle descriptions, you would be absolutely amazed at how many have no clue what kind of car they’re driving themselves or can’t even give a basic description
Me: What kind of vehicle is it?
Caller: I don’t know, I’m not really a car-person.
Me: Can you tell if it’s a sedan, an SUV, or a pickup truck?
Caller: I don’t know, I just told you that I’m not a car-person!
Also a shocking number of people don’t know their own address, phone number, what the nearest cross-street is to their house (or even the nearest major road or big intersection,) what municipality they live in (it may be different than the “city” part of their mailing address,) what the address is of their work, whether their car has power locks and power windows (and in fact what that even means,) whether their spouse has any important medical history, where water shut-offs are in their house, the difference between a smoke detector going off and giving a low-battery chirp, etc.
I’m gonna be generous and ascribe some of that to people not coping with stressful situations well, but I’m sure a lot of that is also just people who I’m amazed know how to put on their pants in the morning
