Multiple ICE arrests reported on Nantucket

[justaprogressive]

The Department of Homeland Security shared reports Tuesday that several people were deported from Nantucket, Massachusetts as part of an operation that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials were carrying out on the island.

“ICE is removing illegal aliens from ALL states, communities, and worksites across this country,” DHS posted on X, above a video from the Nantucket Current that showed several people in life vests sitting on a U.S. Coast Guard boat along with officers wearing what appeared to be bulletproof vests.

“If you are here illegally, use the CBP Home app to self-deport. If not, you will be arrested and deported without a chance to return,” the post read. Neither ICE nor Nantucket police immediately responded to requests for comment.

occur when lots of folks are visiting.

5. No. Family member has a home on Chappy. Big cooking weekend and the week days following.

We always have great food. I get to see my grandkids. A daughter and family coming all the way from L.A. for a week. It will be a great time. I'm trying to unload some of my "vintage" clothing on my granddaughters. The rest goes to Goodwill once I'm back.
