Newark Mayor Ras J. Baraka issued a statement late Thursday afternoon denouncing the raid as an “egregious act” conducted without a warrant and in violation of the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which guarantees “the right of the people be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures.”

Newark Mayor Ras J. Baraka said in a statement on Thursday that ICE "raided" a business in the city and detained "undocumented residents, as well as citizens, without producing a warrant."

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents raided a New Jersey seafood store on Thursday, according to Newark Mayor Ras Baraka. The store owner told PIX11 News that a U.S. military veteran was among the people detained.
