Traffic stops in Mahoning Township lead to ICE detentions under 287(g) deal

Mahoning Township police conducted multiple traffic stops on Sept. 2 and, after determining some occupants were undocumented, transferred them to ICE custody, according to Police Chief Fred Dyroff. The stops occurred under the township's 287(g) agreement with ICE, entered into in April, which allows designated local officers to assist with immigration enforcement duties. Township Supervisor Chairman Bill Lynn said the township's focus is on people without legal status who also have criminal records.
