Restaurant Worker Wrestled to Ground by ICE Agents in the Middle of Shift
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Federal agents arrested a restaurant worker in Nebraska during business hours in front of customers and staff, footage shows. Romero Edilzar Yaxcal-Tiul was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents on June 1 at Early Bird, a restaurant in West Omaha. "Allegations that Romero Edilzar Yaxcal-Tiul was 'wrongfully taken by ICE' are FALSE," Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told Newsweek in an email. DHS said that ICE agents apprehended Yaxcal-Tiul, an undocumented immigrant from Guatemala, who was employed using a false name and Social Security number. He had also previously been involved in a 2022 immigration case related to fraudulent documents, according to DHS. Romero Edilzar Yaxcal-Tiul was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents on June 1 at Early Bird, a restaurant in West Omaha. Romero Edilzar Yaxcal-Tiul was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents on June 1 at Early Bird, a restaurant in West Omaha. Why It Matters President Donald Trump's immigration enforcers have been under increased scrutiny amid reports of aggressive tactics. Critics argue that such actions erode public trust and sow fear in immigrant communities. Supporters argue that tough measures are necessary to uphold the nation's immigration laws. What To Know Footage on social media shows Yaxcal-Tiul being taken to the ground, handcuffed, and escorted out of the restaurant. The incident, which occurred in full view of customers and staff, was later confirmed by Early Bird in a public statement. An Omaha law firm is representing the detained employee but has declined to comment further on the situation. ICE officials, both locally and in Washington, D.C., are currently reviewing the case, and no additional details have been released. According to a post by Jenna Kurtenbach on GoFundMe, Yaxcal-Tiul was wrongfully detained, with ICE agents failing to confirm his identity or provide documentation at the time of his arrest. The post also states that a worker with ICE later said that Yaxcal-Tiul was not the intended target of the enforcement action. DHS has denied the allegation. Newsweek has reached out to Jenna Kurtenbach via GoFundMe for comment. What People Are Saying DHS told Newsweek: "President Trump and Secretary Noem's message to illegal aliens is clear: LEAVE NOW. Illegal aliens can take control of their departure with the CBP Home App. The United States is offering illegal aliens $1,000 and a free flight to self-deport now. We encourage every person here illegally to take advantage of this offer and reserve the chance to come back to the U.S. the right legal way to live [the] American dream. If not, you will be arrested and deported without a chance to return." Early Bird said in a statement on Facebook: "We are aware that an employee was taken into custody by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) at our restaurant on Sunday. The incident occurred during business hours. The incident began in the parking lot as law enforcement attempted to detain the individual and ended in our covered patio area. "We had no involvement or knowledge of this incident prior to living it alongside our guests and staff. "We understand that this event may have caused concern or discomfort for our guests and staff who were present. The safety and well-being of everyone in our establishment is our top priority." What Happens Next A fundraising campaign has been launched to help cover legal expenses related to Yaxcal-Tiul's case. According to Kurtenbach's GoFundMe post, despite Yaxcal-Tiul "having no criminal history, he is still being detained."
