Baytown Police Outline Policy On Foreign Nationals And ICE
Baytown police spokesman Lt. Steve Dorris described cooperative ties with local state and federal agencies regarding ICE actions. The policy allows officers to contact ICE if a suspect is not believed to be a permanent resident to verify alien status and entry details. Upon arrest for a Class B misdemeanor or higher, officers must have a jailer check for criminal information before notifying ICE by phone and informing the suspect that consular notification was made. Officers do not routinely check immigration status.
