As thousands of protesters in Minnesota continue to demand federal immigration agents withdraw from their state.

A federal judge on Saturday ordered the release of a five year old boy and his father who were detained during an immigration raid.

Liam Conejo Ramos can be seen here in a now viral photo wearing a blue bunny hat outside his house as federal agents stood nearby.

He was one of four students detained this month in a Minneapolis suburb, according to the Columbia Heights public school district.

Two 17 year olds and a 10 year old were also det.

A school district official had said Ramos and his father, Adrian Conejo Arias, had entered the United States legally as asylum applicants from Ecuador.

Their lawyer had previously told Reuters they had been sent to a family detention center in Dilley, Texas, the lawyer said.

US Congressman Joaquin Castro posted this photo of the pair at the Dilley Centre last week, saying he had visited them.

Their lawyer and the Department of Homeland Security did not immediately return requests for comment.

Separately, another Minnesota federal judge has declined to order a halt to President Donald Trump's immigration crackdown.

In Minneapolis, state officials had brought the lawsuit accusing federal agents of widespread civil rights abuses, including the killing of two U.S.

In a Saturday ruling, the Biden appointed U.S.

district Judge Kate Menendez said she was influenced by an appeals court decision last week.

The court had blocked her earlier order for agents to rein in their tactics, such as tear gassing, Menendez said.

If her earlier order was thought to go too far in restricting law enforcement, then the new lawsuit to halt the entire operation was certainly beyond that.
