(Pittsburgh, PA) Pittsburgh’s police chief is ordering a review following an ICE arrest outside of the Zone 3 police station. Chief Jason Lando confirmed in a statement to WPXI that ICE agents struggled with a suspect outside the gas station across the street from that department on Thursday. Lando expressed yesterday that he is calling on the Zone 3 commander to conduct an administrative review of the incident to ensure that all the relevant information is discovered. Lando also said that his officers did not intervene and they were not given an order to stand by. The police chief also spoke with the ICE supervisor about the incident.
