New York City Comptroller Brad Lander (D), who's running to be the city's next mayor, was arrested by ICE agents at an immigration court in Lower Manhattan on Tuesday.
Politico's Jeff Coltin posted the arrest video to X, writing, "Mayoral candidate Brad Lander was cuffed and detained by ICE agents after asking to see a warrant for people who were detained after an immigration hearing. Video from the city comptrollerâs press secretary @chloecbristow. She says heâs still being held in 26 Federal Plaza."
amNewYork reported, "The cityâs elected financial watchdog, and a Democratic candidate for mayor, appeared at 26 Federal Plaza on the morning of June 17 to observe immigration hearings involving individuals marked for potential deportation. Landerâs arrest, which amNewYork observed, occurred as the comptroller and his staff walked arm-in-arm with an immigrant whom federal agents â representing ICE, the FBI and the Treasury Department, each of whom wearing masks to conceal their faces â moved to seize after a court hearing. Moments earlier, the immigrant had their case dismissed pending appeal."
The news outlet reported, as ICE agents moved in to arrest him, Lander yelled: "Show me you warrant! Show me your badge!"
Lander is running against incumbent Mayor Eric Adams, among others. Adams, a Democrat who has shown support for President Donald Trump and said he would cooperate with ICE raids in his city, had corruption charges dropped by the Department of Justice in April.
