A Mexican immigrant was taken to a Minneapolis hospital earlier this month after bones in his face and skull were broken while he was in federal custody. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents initially claimed Alberto Castañeda Mondragón had tried to flee while handcuffed and ran headfirst into a brick wall. But staff members at Hennepin County Medical Center told The Associated Press that they determined that could not possibly account for the fractures and bleeding throughout the man’s 31-year-old’s brain. The case offers an example of recent run-ins between immigration officers and health care workers that have contributed to mounting friction at Minneapolis hospitals.
