Controversial former editor of Breitbart, Milo Yiannopoulos, has been detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). He is currently in federal immigration custody in Louisiana.
ICE sources have informed Fox News that Yiannopoulos is held in Alexandria, Louisiana, a facility commonly used by ICE for deportation operations. He is a citizen of the United Kingdom, but details regarding his U.S. immigration status and the reasons for his arrest are unclear at this time.
According to ICE’s online detainee locator, a screenshot reviewed by Fox News confirms that Yiannopoulos is in the agency’s custody. Yiannopoulos gained national attention as a far-right political commentator and former editor at Breitbart News. His speeches and online activities, particularly at UC Berkeley, have sparked significant controversy.
Fox News is seeking further information from the Department of Homeland Security on Yiannopoulos’ arrest, his immigration status, and potential deportation processes.
