A Brazilian father and his son were turned over to ICE after they were detained by the Coast Guard while out on a boat fishing off the coast of Martha's Vineyard.
Rogerio da Silva Lima and his 15-year-old son, Nycolas de Al Varenga Lima, are being held at an immigration facility in Burlington, Massachusetts, the Boston Globe reported.
Originally from Brazil, they have lived on Martha's Vineyard for several years. A family friend took them on his boat early Monday for their first offshore fishing trip, with the trio ending up about one-and-a-half miles out from the historic fishing town of Menemsha.
