Overview
- ICE detained Fernando Jaramillo Solano and his children, ages 12 and 15, during a stop as they drove to school near Durango, according to the Compañeros resource center.
- Advocates say the family has an active asylum case and that ICE declined to accept documentation presented by volunteer legal aides.
- Protests outside the ICE field office continued into Tuesday, with videos showing tactical agents firing pepperballs and one agent throwing a woman to the ground.
- The City of Durango requested investigations by the Colorado Bureau of Investigation and the FBI into an incident involving a federal agent pushing a woman during the protest.
- Durango police say attempts to release the children to their mother and to conduct a welfare check were denied, while the Colorado State Patrol says it only aided public safety and used no munitions, as ICE declined comment and advocates reported the children were transferred and the father sent toward Aurora.
