Professor Charged in Immigration Probe

Federal agents arrested two more individuals in the Twin Cities tied to Operation Metro Surge, a sweeping crackdown charging 15 people for obstructing immigration enforcement. Among them is Erik Davis, a Macalester College professor named in a 94-page indictment for attending meetings and messaging others. His defense argues he acted on conscience, suspects government informants, and questions the felony charges—claiming the conduct doesn’t warrant federal conspiracy and should be handled as misdemeanors locally. No future court dates are set, and while this isn’t the first round of charges, some prior cases have been dropped while others linger.
