Federal agents mounted a joint ICE operation in Manhattan’s Chinatown on Tuesday, concentrating on Canal Street to target criminal activity tied to counterfeit goods, officials said. WABC reported vendors hastily packed up and tried to flee as officers moved in. Afterward, protesters gathered; DHS’s Tricia McLaughlin said one “rioter” was arrested for assaulting a federal officer and accused others of obstructing the operation. City Hall sent senior officials to monitor, reiterated it doesn’t cooperate on civil deportations, and cited Mayor Adams’ stance, while the NYPD said it had no involvement.
