NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) – More ICE operations were confirmed late Monday night in the South Nashville area, according to Metro City Council member Joy Styles. 

Neither THP nor ICE has confirmed the information with News 2. 

Overnight, volunteers with a Nashville-based Latino organization were closely following the apparent activity, even filming them.

“Really, all that we can do is get involved right,” Ingrid McIntyre, Pastor at Glencliff United Methodist Church, said.

Pastor and member of the South Nashville community, Ingrid McIntyre, has been acting as a watchdog overnight. “Driving around South Nashville watching for people that might be getting pulled over, racially profiled,” McIntyre said.

She’s been looking for incidents where you see THP and undercover vehicles.   

“What we are seeing is an abuse of power, and we want to document it,” Brenda Perez, The Remix, said.

Perez is an organizer with The Remix, a volunteer group that provides services for the Latino community.

Perez said volunteers captured four different apparent ICE operations in and around South Nashville overnight. “Our phone line is very active right now."

Right now, The Remix is asking families to fill out this form so they can account for who has gone missing.

“Yeah, it's absolutely for people to fill out that information because we are receiving new information from the THP office or ICE, so both of these agencies are accountable to no one, apparently, and can just pick people off the street without due process and without reasonable suspicion,” Perez said.

On top of that, The Remix is fundraising to help families that are now missing a loved one.

“We know rent is still due. Some people still have to pay rent, buy groceries, so we are going to get funds to those families and support childcare and all those things,” Perez said.
