'They wanted to kill me': New York man speaks out after ICE mistakenly beats him

A New York man said that Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents admitted that they had the wrong person after he was beaten on the street in the Bronx.

Jeury Concepcion, 19, told WNBC that he had to get stitches and suffered a concussion after his encounter with ICE on Wednesday.

"They didn't identify themselves as ICE," Concepcion recalled with a large gash visible on his face. "They just grabbed me and threw me on the floor and started hurting me."

Witness video of the incident showed agents handcuffing the bleeding man as bystanders shouted.

Jordan Salvador was there when Concepcion was beaten. He described the ICE agents as "very barbaric" and "super unprofessional."

"You know, your job is to find undocumented people," Salvador said. "I get that, but it's just, there's ways to go about it."

The agents finally asked for Concepcion's identification after he was in their vehicle. He said the agents admitted they made a mistake and let him go.

"They didn't want to talk to me. They wanted to kill me," Concepcion concluded. "And I told him. I ain't allow — I'm going to report them."
