The detentions come on the heels of similar arrests earlier this week in immigration courts across the country.

An attorney told KERA she saw at least three men detained after they had been told their deportation cases were dismissed. "When they step out in the hallway, that's where ICE is waiting for them.”

Immigration and Customs Enforcement set a new record with 2,368 arrests of illegal aliens in one day, part of the Trump administration's push toward a goal of 3,000 daily arrests.
