Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents have been directed to largely suspend vehicle stops until further notice, according to a source familiar with the guidance, marking a major reversal in recent tactics following two ICE-involved fatal shootings over the last week. The guidance applies to agents who fall under Enforcement and Removal Operations, the branch within ICE charged with the arrest and deportation of undocumented immigrants, and imposes a pause on initiating stops, according to the source. Officers have been directed to use other methods for general immigration enforcement, which makes up a large share of their work, and to coordinate with partner agencies when executing a criminal warrant on a person in a vehicle. 0:00 ICE suspending most vehicle stops 3:45 Concerns over ICE agent tactics 6:56 Why weren’t agents wearing body cameras?
