ICE agents mistakenly detained a U.S. marshal in the lobby of a Tucson federal building, confusing him for a wanted subject due to a vague description. The marshal's identity was swiftly confirmed by colleagues, ending the incident without drama or injury. “The Deputy US Marshal’s identity was quickly confirmed,” said spokesperson Colleen Grayman.

Mistaken identity led ICE agents to briefly detain a fellow law enforcement officer, fueling confusion in a Tucson federal building. With over 2,200 immigrant arrests made that week, the pressure on ICE was already sky-high. “He exited the building without incident,” officials noted, likely with a raised eyebrow.

ICE made its highest single-day immigrant arrest total—over 2,200 people—just days before accidentally detaining a U.S. marshal in a classic case of badge-on-badge confusion.
