TL;DR Summary

During a targeted ICE operation in Minnesota, agents detained a 5-year-old boy alongside his father; DHS says the child was not the target and one officer stayed with him as others arrested the father, who has an active asylum case. School officials criticized detaining a pupil and noted prior student detentions in the district; advocates say the removal risks child safety and disrupts families. The operation, called Metro Surge, has provoked local protests and tensions around immigration enforcement.
