A federal immigration agent arrived Wednesday night at an exclusive World Cup party on Biscayne Bay attended by Miami-Dade County’s mayor, who is calling the incident “deeply troubling” and a potential warning sign that international soccer fans won’t feel safe traveling to Miami next year for the global soccer matches.
“This should not have happened,” Mayor Daniella Levine Cava, a second-term Democrat, said in a statement Thursday. “Ensuring that all community members feel safe and included is crucial to maintaining our county’s reputation as a welcoming destination for both residents and visitors.”
