In one incident on Monday at Laughlin Air Force Base in Texas, two Haitian migrants abruptly got up from their seats as the plane taxied to the runway and attacked ICE agents, biting them, and forcing takeoff to be delayed, according to the Washington Examiner.
Meanwhile, in a separate incident, three ICE officers also suffered non-life-threatening injuries during an assault on Tuesday at the Port-au-Prince airport, when a group from a plane carrying single adult men stormed another recently arrived flight carrying deported families, according to NBC News. The Haitian men also assaulted the pilots of that plane, who work for a government contractor licensed to fly deportation flights, and demanded to be taken back to the US, a source familiar with internal reports has revealed.
