A Minnesota man told Reuters on Monday he felt fear, shame and desperation a day after ICE officers broke down his door with guns drawn, handcuffed him and dragged him into the snow wearing shorts and Crocs.

ChongLy Thao, 56, a naturalised US citizen who goes by the name Scott, was returned home later on Sunday without explanation or apology, he said.

“I was praying. I was like, God, please help me, I didn’t do anything wrong. Why do they do this to me? Without my clothes on,” Mr Thao, a Hmong man born in Laos, told Reuters from his home on Monday, while neighbours were at work fixing the broken door.
