Frank Eltman of the Associated Press reports:

A top police official on Long Island said Friday he has “no desire to cooperate any further” with federal immigration agents after his department was kept in the dark about many of the details of raids and arrests conducted earlier this week.

“We withdrew from any involvement in any further operations,” Nassau County Police Commissioner Lawrence Mulvey said following the arrest of 82 people. “There will be no further cooperation unless these issues are ironed out.”
