Fernando Vazquez, 18, says he was unlawfully detained by Border Patrol agents while he was at work in Cary. Vazquez told WRAL that the agents confiscated his wallet and placed him in the back of a vehicle.
"They took me two miles down the street. And another Hispanic man asked me, 'Where are you from?' I said I'm from here and then he also asked me 'Where were you born?' I said this is where I was born."
Despite asserting that he was born in the area, Vazquez says he was only released after the agents realized their mistake, unceremoniously tossing his belongings to the ground. This incident has left him without several personal items, including his college and high school IDs and his AirPods.
"They just threw it. They didn't care. They treated me like a dog, basically. It was unreal," says Vazquez.

Indigenous actor Elaine Miles says ICE called her tribal ID ‘fake’
Elaine Miles was walking to a bus stop in Redmond to go to Target, she said, when four men wearing masks and vests with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement label stepped out of two black SUVs with no front plates and pressed her for her ID.
Miles, an Indigenous actor best known for her roles in “Northern Exposure,” “Smoke Signals,” “Wyvern” and “The Last of Us,” handed them her tribal ID from the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation in Oregon.
Federal government agencies recognize tribal ID as a valid form of identification, and Miles has used it to travel back and forth to Canada and Mexico without any issues.
Yet, Miles recalled one agent calling it “fake.”
“Anyone can make that,” she recalled another agent saying.

The human rights group said migrants held at the state-run Everglades facility, and at Miami’s Krome immigration processing center operated by a private company on behalf of the Trump administration, continue to be exposed to “cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment” rising in some cases to torture.
The cage, known to detainees as “the box”, is used by guards for the arbitrary punishment of trivial or non-existent offenses, according to the report compiled from interviews with detainees and advocacy groups, and a site visit to Krome made by Amnesty workers in September.
“It’s a box outside, exposed to the south Florida sun and humidity, and exposed to mosquitos,” one detainee told the group.
“One time, two people in my cell were calling out to the guards telling them that I needed my medication. Ten guards rushed into the cell and threw them to the ground. They were taken to the ‘box’ and punished just for trying to help me. I saw a guy who was put in it for an entire day.”
