Twelve people were arrested in Colbert County on Wednesday and are set to be deported, according to Colbert County Sheriff Eric Balentine. ICE agents are operating out of a facility in Etowah County, according to Sheriff Balentine. He said it’s referred to as the Etowah Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO). The detainees are at the Colbert County Detention Center until they are transferred to the Etowah facility for deportation. Protests have ramped up since ICE agents shot and killed Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis.
