Elderly Bystander Knocked to Ground in N.H. Courthouse When Federal Agents Lunge at Immigrant in Dogpile Arrest

Surveillance cameras inside a New Hampshire courthouse captured federal agents tackling a Venezuelan man, who is now in ICE custody, and knocking down an elderly bystander in the process. Arnuel Marquez Colmenarez, 33, was at the Nashua Circuit Court on Feb. 20 for an arraignment on misdemeanor charges related to an alleged drunk driving incident on Feb. 9. However, before he made it to court, he was thrown to the ground and detained by the agents. An older man walking with a cane was also caught up in the scuffle and fell on his back. The man remained on the ground — seemingly unable to get up — for several moments while the agents kept their focus on holding Marquez Colmenarez down.
