Capitol News has confirmed that at least two persons were detained early this morning upon arrival at JFK on a JetBlue flight out of Guyana.
The individuals were taken off the aircraft by law enforcement agents.
Immediately after the flight pulled in at the gate, the agents boarded the aircraft and requested that the persons go with them before the other passengers were allowed to disembark. It is unclear what led to the action by the authorities. Recently, the US has upped the ante with regard to immigration and border control matters.
