The text read: Tell everyone to stay away from biscayne blvd and 56th street. The immigration police have a checkpoint setup looking for people who do not have paperwork or the right valid paperwork to be in this country. Spread the word to all of your friends and family.

Apparently this was not true;

Quote:
But the rumor is not true. ICE spokesperson Nestor Yglesias confirmed to New Times there were no "checkpoints" in Miami today, and this reporter spent a full hour driving around town looking for deportation vans that never materialized.

In the event that one reporter's eyes aren't convincing enough, journalists from WLRN Radio and Univision also scrambled to find the mythic ICE trucks and also came up empty.

It's unclear where the rumor originated, but by 1 p.m., multiple immigration and labor organizations were sounding the alarm about citizenship "checkpoints" all over town today. Miami's Community Justice Project tweeted out that multiple people had seen the checkpoint in Miami Beach, only to pull their tweets down after reporters arrived on scene, to find nothing.

That's coming, too. Going for the low hanging fruit first, I guess
