Neighbors form human chain during attempted ICE arrest

(WSMV) – Neighbors formed a human chain in support of a Nashville, Tennessee family Monday, as ICE agents tried to serve an arrest warrant at their home.

Agents were there to arrest the father, who had been waiting inside of his car for hours with a 12-year-old boy. Eventually, neighbors shielded the man, while he ran back inside of his house.

The agents eventually left the scene, empty-handed.
