Unfortunately the relative quiet of the last few days is over. ICE is all over South Minneapolis this morning. They just smashed an observer’s car window and kidnapped them right outside my corner coffee shop.

People standing on the corner, kind of shellshocked but organizing like mad anyway, trying to gather everyone who witnessed and speed witness accounts and video to lawyers, Monarca, ACLU, MN AG.

Coffe shop is handing out free coffees to observers and shutting down service.

@inthehands oh shit, hope they can get the observer out quickly.

@inthehands wishing the kidnapped person and everyone trying to help all the best. Thank you for describing this to us as it happens, I dearly hope that bystanders like you reporting what you see continue to make an impression on people.

I assume you've seen the AG request for information, as you're very linked in to the situation.

@carsten @inthehands This.

@inthehands Damn them. Thank you, Paul.

This is all of course in direct, flagrant defiance of the recent court injunction protecting the right of observers to peacefully observe.
Law and order my ass.

Bovino is in the city again, and they always go especially off the rails when he’s here.
I hope that motherfucker gets frostbite and has to have something amputated.

@inthehands his entire head would be a good start. He's not using it anyway.

I feel the need to stress, even though it should go without saying, that the person who was kidnapped out of their car was not obstructing or interfering. They were doing nothing illegal, and nothing wrong. They were part of a caravan following ICE at a safe distance, driving legally, not even stopping their crimes, not even slowing them down — just making sure their crimes were recorded.

Apparently (I wasn’t part of the group, got the report when I arrived on the scene) there was a caravan of multiple vehicles following ICE. Several ICE vehicles cut dangerously into the caravan and forced the observers’ cars to stop. That’s when they smashed the person’s window and took them.
It sounds like multiple people got video. I hope you don’t see it, for the safety of those whose faces might appear in the video. But I hope you believe me anyway. This is all really happening.

@inthehands Thanks for letting us know. It's heartbreaking, but important to know what's going on.

Meanwhile, we’re getting some really disturbing reports in neighborhood chats of ICE dumping injured detainees in parks. We no idea what the hell ICE is doing. This has happened in multiple parks on multiple days in different parts of the city: two confirmed, multiple others who may be part of the pattern. One of them had a fractured skull.
The temperature here has not been above freezing for over a week.

@inthehands Sorry you in MSP caught another case of Bovino. Be nice if there was a condom or something you could wear to protect against that.

There’s a lot of circumstantial evidence that ICE is gearing up to directly target schools here. Without getting into details: they are casing schools and posing as community members.
While ICE has already come onto school grounds on a handful of occasions, include the terrible incident at Roosevelt High School, they so far have stopped short of directly targeting schools and schoolchildren.
We expect that to change. Everyone is on high alert.

@inthehands 160 billion goes a long way. Even for a guy like Trump.

@inthehands
I suppose it's probably just been too cold & windy for them to do much of anything for a few days?God. I am so fucking angry. All of my love to the people of Minneapolis. Keep resisting. Keep protecting each other. Keep documenting & bearing witness. This is absolutely awful, but there is beauty & joy in the love & support I see people showing each other.
All power to the people. Solidarity forever!
