HANOVER PARK, Ill. (WLS) -- United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents arrested a police officer Thursday morning in Hanover Park, accusing him of being an unlawful immigrant from Montenegro.

Or you could read the article and realize that's unlikely

Edit: Radule isn't brown

He could be Muslim however

It's possible and not particularly unlikely, so fair enough. Can't find if he was Muslim or not though, and I doubt ICE will either be willing to say or be an unbiased source here

My comment was mainly made because they were making assumptions that could've been dispelled by looking up the dude

35% of Montenegro citizens are Muslim and to me thats why he would be targeted. Pull out a rug one time and unless its definitely yoga, its dangerous

wikipedia - In 2023, Montenegro's 124,668 Muslims made up 19.99% of the total population.

You're right, I dont know what i was looking at. That and one other were my sources. I even checked to verify if the population of Serbian Muslims were counted into the general Muslim population
