At approximately 2:22 p.m., officers spotted a man matching Bah's description leaving the residence and meeting several unidentified individuals on a nearby public street.

Officers continued monitoring him rather than immediately approaching because several school-aged children were in the area.

About an hour later, officers spotted Bah alone and approached him while displaying police and ICE identification.

They confirmed his identity through biographical questions, a photograph and Mobile Fortify, a biometric identification tool.

Bah was initially arrested Oct. 7 on charges of aggravated assault on a police officer with a deadly weapon, resisting arrest, obstructing governmental administration and intent to obtain transportation without paying, according to DHS.

ICE lodged a detainer with Queens Central Booking, but Bah was released without federal immigration authorities being notified, DHS previously said.

"This illegal alien from Guinea was arrested for assaulting a police officer with a deadly weapon.

Despite these violent charges, New York City sanctuary politicians refused to honor ICE’s detainer and RELEASED him back onto the streets, and he remains at large," DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin said in a statement prior to Friday's arrest.
asserted
Mullin → refuse → arrest
"DHS is calling on Governor Kathy Hochul and Mayor Zohran Mamdani to knock it off with these evil sanctuary policies before another American gets hurt, or worse."
