Raleigh’s mayor says border patrol and ICE are in city as state’s Democratic governor criticizes federal operations
Federal authorities expanded their mass immigration sweeps to Raleigh, the capital city of North Carolina, on Tuesday, local officials said, after a weekend where more than 100 people were arrested in Charlotte.
“It is the city of Raleigh’s understanding that the border patrol and ICE are already in Raleigh,” said the mayor, Janet Cowell, to local media, though she added city authorities did not know how many agents would be involved in the surge.
