MINNEAPOLIS (AP) Intensive care nurses immediately doubted the word of federal immigration officers when they arrived at a Minneapolis hospital with a Mexican immigrant who had broken bones in his face and skull.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents initially claimed Alberto Castañeda Mondragón had tried to flee while handcuffed and purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall, according to court documents filed by a lawyer seeking his release.
But staff members at Hennepin County Medical Center determined that could not possibly account for the fractures and bleeding throughout the 31-year-olds brain, said three nurses familiar with the case.
It was laughable, if there was something to laugh about, said one of the nurses, who spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss patient care. There was no way this person ran headfirst into a wall.

"Staff told the Mercury in December that ICE and US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) agents seemingly landed on Legacy Emanuel as the go to place to take people after they detained them, often after they injure people during violent arrests. Nurses said the hospital allowed agents to stay with patients while they received treatment, which disrupted patient care, including in medically harmful ways."
