MINNEAPOLIS — Somali-owned and operated businesses at the Karmel Mall shopping center were targeted by Trump deportation agents. Mall owner owner Basim Sabri gave this account to a WCCO news crew:
“Today and yesterday the neighborhood was stormed with ICE agents. In fact, my security guards have to ask them to move out of the lot. There was like four or five cars parked in there. They stop people obviously just based on their look, not based on a piece of paper provided to the agent to execute by the court. This is not what America is all about. I’m 100% against it.”
