Federal agents from the Department of Homeland Security entered a residential building owned by Columbia University early Thursday morning and detained a student, the school said in a letter to the campus.
Claire Shipman, the university’s acting president, said that Columbia officials believed that the federal agents had misrepresented themselves to gain access to the building, saying that they were searching for a “missing person.”
“We are working to gather more details,” she wrote.
The student who was detained, Ellie Aghayeva, was a senior majoring in neuroscience and political science, according to a statement released by her friends to a faculty organization, the American Association of University Professors.
She is an international student with a visa, the statement said. She appeared to have been taken from her Columbia-owned apartment on West 121st Street.
Ms. Aghayeva posted a one-second video on her popular Instagram account showing her in the back of a vehicle with the caption: “Dhs illegally arrested me. Please help.” —New York Times
