Here's more from WISN, which leaves out some important facts:

Officials said agents followed Salah Sarsour on Monday as he left his home, surrounded his vehicle and placed him in ICE custody.

They said he was taken to the ICE facility in Broadview, Illinois, and later to a detention center in Indiana.

The statement said Sarsour has been a legal resident of the Milwaukee community for more than 32 years and is a "lawful permanent resident" in the United States.

"We are calling on the U.S. government to immediately release Mr. Sarsour, to uphold the first amendment rights of citizens and residents of the U.S. to criticize a foreign regime, to uphold U.S. values of freedom, fairness and the rule of law (particularly human rights laws) and to place the interests of the U.S. and U.S. citizens and residents of the interests of a foreign regime," the statement read.

Sarsour is reportedly a documented supporter of Hamas, and has a rap sheet going back to the 1990s.
