It started like any other school day.
A backpack. A small hand. A short walk from the bus to the driveway.
Then masked agents were there.
And a kindergartener was suddenly at the center of something no child should ever be pulled into.
The Columbia Heights Public School district in Minnesota says federal agents have detained four of its students in four separate incidents over the last two weeks.
But one case is the one that made people stop breathing when they heard it.
A 5-year-old boy.
Detained with his parent.
And, according to the school superintendent, used as a way to draw other family members out of their home.
“Why detain a 5-year-old?” Superintendent Zena Stenvik asked reporters.
“You can’t tell me that this child is going to be classified as a violent criminal.”
That’s the question that keeps echoing.
Because this isn’t just about one family.
It’s about what it does to an entire community when children start disappearing from driveways, bus stops, and school routes.
