“Federal officials announced earlier Thursday that they were ending their enforcement surge in Minnesota after more than two months. More than 4,000 undocumented immigrants were arrested during the campaign, officials said. The shooting on Jan. 14 of Julio C. Sosa-Celis by an ICE agent touched off hours of tense protests in Minneapolis, where thousands of federal agents had been sent as part of the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown in the state.
