CHICAGO — What was supposed to be a joyous occasion turned into a nightmare for a local Cicero family whose parents were detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement on Sunday morning.

ICE agents arrested Moises Enciso Trejo, 41, Constantina Ramírez Meraz, 43, and their eldest son, 22, during a traffic stop Sunday at Cicero Avenue and Pershing Road on the Chicago-Cicero border.

The family had split into two cars that morning: Enciso, Ramírez and their 22-year-old son headed to drop items at his college, while their 19-year-old daughter took her 10- and 12-year-old siblings to a nearby Dunkin’ Donuts before the family planned to meet for church and celebrate the youngest child’s birthday, attorney Shelby Vcelka of Victory Law Office said.
