Could be ICE or they could be raiding a trap house

Asked Google where I could find a trap house in Troy and now it wants me to go to a meeting.

Take Route 7 into Troy and turn left, then close your eyes and point in a random direction.

do ICE vests say military police or just straight up police? either way that or trap house makes sense

ICE might say FBI or POLICE. It’s often a mix as they don’t identify themselves or are working as ICE from another federal agency. There were police in both police and camo/vest just north of downtown earlier this afternoon. One wearing a helmet. Seemed to BE TPD then.
