There isn't a video yet.. but I just saw on KTLA that the Ice Cream Vendor that was detained by ICE was released.

He has a green card as well. You may recall the image of his ice cream cart abandoned on the sidewalk in Culver City here in CA.

A Culver City community celebrated Friday after an ice cream man, who was detained by immigration authorities, was released from federal custody.

Ambrocio Lozano, a beloved neighborhood “palatero” who sold ice cream from his cart, was detained for 114 days after being arrested for being undocumented in June.

Lozano’s attorney said the man also known as Enrique was taken from LA and sent to Texas then New Mexico as his community rallies to raise money for legal fees.

Ultimately, Lozano’s family said he was able to become a legal permanent U.S. resident through a 245(i) petition filed more than 20 years ago through his wife’s green card.
