A local City Rescue Mission Cook has been detained by ICE while at work. Here is what happened according to the Times Union.

 

"I understand there needs to be immigration reform but I also think this needs to be looked at not as one size fits all measure and that's what the government is doing" said Craig Apple, Albany County Sheriff.

The man was arrested while volunteering he is also married to an American woman. Hopefully, they will be lenient and not deport him based on his community service alone.

Sheriff Apple says it's time we take a closer look at immigration policy starting with Ngoran's case.

"We can do better than this in this country, we have such a divide in this country that we forget about treating people humanely and compassionately" said Apple.
