Terrified screams when ICE surges in Maine


Listen Later

When Fátima Lucas Henrique left home before 6 a.m. last Friday to head to her shift as a certified nursing assistant, it was with a sense of resolve. The ongoing immigration crackdown in the state wasn’t going to change that.

Then came the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, rushing to her and forcing her from her car as onlookers honked their horns and shouted for help. Her terrified, piercing screams throughout the arrest, captured in a video widely circulated on social media, confirmed the fears and panic that many here worried would take hold once federal agents arrived.


Maine has experienced a surge of federal agents in an effort the DHS has called "Operation Catch of the Day".


Reporter Sabrina Shankman brings the immediate story of Fatima Lucas Henrique and the echoes of unrest that continued ICE presence in Maine has brought.
