NASVHILLE — An Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent tried to bring a man in Hermitage, Tennessee,
into custody, but neighbors formed a human chain to allow the man and his son to get home.

This happened Monday morning in the area of Brooke Valley Drive and Forest Ridge Drive.

The man had entered into his van with his son when an ICE vehicle blocked him in.

Over the next few hours, neighbors came out to support their neighbor,
bringing with them water, gas and wet rags so they could stay in their van.
Eventually, after about four hours, the neighbors created a chain to allow the father and son to run into their home.
They were able to do so and ICE left.

The ICE agent had an administrative warrant.
While that does allow ICE to detain someone,
it doesn't allow ICE to forcibly remove someone from their home or vehicle.

There were metro police officers at the scene.
They were not trying to assist in the arrest, but simply there to have a presence.

Several people near the vehicle broadcasted on Facebook Live during the event.

According to a WTVF reporter on the scene, no arrest was made by ICE today.
They left after neighbors helped the two people involved in the stop into their home.
