Video Shows ICE Lied About Man “Swerving” At Them

Salt Lake City’s Fox affiliate reports:

The Unified Police Department said surveillance footage failed to back up recent claims made by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents who said a driver had swerved at them last month. UPD officers were originally sent to assist the ICE agents with a traffic stop in Murray on the morning of Jan. 26. When the officers arrived at the scene, the agents had already stopped a vehicle and claimed the driver had swerved towards them.

The officers said when they asked for clarification on what had occurred, “they were unable to obtain a clear response from ICE agents,” according to a release sent Tuesday by the department. UPD retrieved surveillance footage failing to show the driver swerving toward the ICE agents. Following the discovery, the citation against the man was dismissed and UPD officials contacted ICE to “express concerns regarding the inaccuracies and inconsistencies in their agents’ statements.”
