Judge orders release of detained father and son held in Texas

A five‑year‑old boy and his father, who were detained by immigration officers and held at an ICE facility in South Texas, have been released and returned home after a judge’s order. Their case drew widespread attention after a photo of the child in a bunny hat and a Spider‑Man backpack circulated online. A member of Congress accompanied them back to Minnesota, where the family was welcomed home.
