Jhon Maykel Correa-Sangucho, a Honduran national, was arrested by ICE agents in Harrison, New Jersey, after officers said he refused repeated commands to exit his vehicle during a traffic stop. Witness video showed two children inside the vehicle crying and clinging to him as agents carried out the arrest. The Harrison mayor and Town Council called the scene 'heartbreaking' and asked the school district to provide counseling to affected students. DHS said Correa-Sangucho remains in ICE custody pending removal proceedings, and said a female passenger and a bystander are under investigation for allegedly interfering with the arrest.
