The agents tried to grab him in an elevator, then piled on him in a lobby, knocking an old man to the ground whom everyone just ignored.

ICE is pure racist trash.

A bounty hunter in NYC told me he caught absconders by surprise while they were washing their laundry or when they were eating. No violence and he worked alone.
