The PopCrave post you linked to (from January 24, 2026) reports on a widely discussed incident involving ICE (U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement) detaining Elvis Joel Tipan-Echeverria, an Ecuadorian national, and his 2-year-old daughter Chloe Renata Tipan Villacis in south Minneapolis.

Key details from news reports and public reactions:
  • The father and toddler were stopped during a traffic incident (some accounts describe it as them returning from grocery shopping).
  • ICE agents reportedly smashed the car window to apprehend them.
  • A federal judge issued an emergency order for the child's immediate release (with a deadline like 9:30 p.m. that Friday), but ICE instead transferred both to a detention facility in Texas via commercial flight the same day/evening.
  • This has sparked major outrage, with many calling it a violation of the court order and criticizing aggressive immigration enforcement tactics — especially involving very young children.
  • A GoFundMe campaign for the family's legal fees, rent, food, and reunification efforts has reportedly raised significant funds (tens of thousands of dollars mentioned in some updates).
  • The case came right after similar high-profile detentions of young children (e.g., 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos / Liam Ramos in Minnesota), fueling broader criticism of current ICE practices under the administration.
