A young mother in Louisiana had a terrifying encounter this week when she was chased to her front door by several masked men who turned out to be agents from US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
Footage Shows Frantic Pursuit
Surveillance video from Wednesday, 3 December 2025, captures the moment 23-year-old Jacelynn sprints towards her home. She is being closely followed by multiple individuals whose faces are concealed. The footage shows the young woman reaching her door in a state of panic, narrowly avoiding what she described as being "snatched."
"I Am a US Citizen"
In the aftermath of the incident, Jacelynn stated unequivocally that she is an American citizen, born and raised in Louisiana. She emphasised that she informed the pursuing agents of this fact not once, but twice, during the confrontation. The motive for the pursuit despite her claims remains unclear and is likely to raise serious questions about enforcement protocols.
Coincides with DHS Operation Announcement
The alarming event took place against a specific backdrop. It occurred as the US Department of Homeland Security announced a new immigration enforcement operation targeting the New Orleans area, where Louisiana is located. This timing has sparked immediate debate and concern regarding the methods being used in such crackdowns and the potential for mistaken identity or overly aggressive tactics.
The case highlights ongoing tensions surrounding immigration enforcement in the United States, particularly when operations involve masked officers and result in the pursuit of individuals who assert their legal right to be in the country.
