A fugitive known for tunneling into New York City sewers to search for gold has been taken into custody by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) following his release from detention by a judge. Authorities described the individual as a self-proclaimed "mole man" who spent years digging through underground tunnels in search of treasure. The arrest came after the judge, known for progressive legal rulings, ordered his release despite his illegal immigration status. ICE has now taken control of the case, raising questions about the handling of immigration enforcement in the city.
