NEW YORK (AP) — New York City comptroller and Democratic mayoral candidateBrad Lander was arrested by federal agents at an immigration court Tuesday after he linked arms with a person that authorities were attempting to detain.
A reporter with The Associated Press witnessed Lander’s arrest at a federal building in Manhattan.The person Lander was walking out of the courtroom was also arrested.
Lander had spent the morning observing immigration court hearings and told an AP reporter thathe was there to “accompany” some immigrants out of the building.
In the moments before Lander was handcuffed, agents could be seen trying to physically separate Lander from the man they had come to detain. Lander briefly struggled to stay close to the detainee before he was pulled away. Video taken by journalists at the scene shows that agents struggled to separate Lander from the man he’d linked arms with for more than 40 seconds before wresting the two apart.
A video of the arrest captured by an AP reporter shows an agent telling Lander, “You’re obstructing.”
“I’m not obstructing, I’m standing right here in the hallway,” Lander said as he was being handcuffed.
