I’d like to share what I’ve seen in other post. Carry a loud whistle with you, and provide 3 SHORT blasts for a ICE sighting and 3 LONG blast for witnessing a kidnapping in progress. Record everything. Remain 10ft away. Stay on public property. Ask for names and badge number. Get VIN #’s of vehicles
