City Hall is challenging ICE’s detainment of 20-year-old Bronx student Dylan Lopez Contreras, who was suddenly taken away by federal agents last month.
Contreras, who hails from Venezuela and is a public school student, was cuffed by ICE on May 21 in Lower Manhattan while attending a mandatory immigration hearing. The arrest sparked outrage even as the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) dubbed him an “illegal alien” who, they claim, entered the country illegally.
