Mayor Ras Baraka said he was "appalled" and "angry" and blasted ICE for also detaining U.S. citizens, including a veteran. ICE said citizens may be questioned during an investigation.

The raid in Newark, New Jersey, came after President Donald Trump signed a series of executive orders on his first day in office cracking down on immigration and the U.S.-Mexico border.

Newark Mayor Ras Baraka, members of the city council, and state and federal representatives are expected to hold a news conference Friday morning about what the mayor is calling a “raid” by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers at a business there on Thursday.
