New details about 5-year-old detained by ICE

New details have emerged about the 5-year-old who was detained by ICE in Columbia Heights. Marc Prokosch, the attorney for 5-year-old Liam Ramos’s family, spoke Thursday and said they entered the country legally to seek asylum from their home country, Ecuador. Prokosch noted that Liam and his father are currently being held in an immigration detention facility for families in San Antonio, Texas. Vice President JD Vance said that he first thought the situation was "terrible" before he "did a little more follow-up research." "I came to find that the 5-year-old wasn't arrested, but that his dad was an illegal alien, and that when they went to arrest him, the father ran," Vance said. "What are they supposed to do? Let a 5-year-old freeze to death?" The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) says ICE agents "did not target" the 5-year-old. They allege that the boy's father is in the country illegally, and he was targeted in the operation. DHS goes on to say that the father fled on foot when agents approached him.
