Canadian accused of attacking teen over 'Trump' and 'ICE' pants ordered deported: DHS
A Canadian woman accused of attacking a teenager over his "Trump" and "ICE" pants has been ordered to be deported back to the Great White North.
An immigration judge in Texas ordered Kaitlyn Tracey deported to Canada on Tuesday, after she allegedly approached a group of teens on New Jersey's Point Pleasant boardwalk over Fourth of July weekend and struck one of the girls, the Department of Homeland Security said.
A spokesperson for DHS previously told Fox News Digital that Tracey entered the U.S. on an April 2024 visa and stayed past the Sept. 6, 2024 expiry date.

"She overstayed her visa and failed to depart," the spokesperson said.
"She received full due process and was ordered removed on Aug. 4 by an immigration judge to her home country of Canada. ICE will return her home as soon as possible," a spokesperson said on Wednesday.
A probable cause affidavit by law enforcement states that Tracey allegedly slapped the victim across her face and body.
Tracey started yelling at the teen because she was wearing "patriotic colored sweatpants with political wording," police added, stating that the young woman was wearing sweatpants that read "Trump" and "ICE."
Tracey reportedly took issue with the group's "patriotic colored sweatpants with political wording," police said.

The Point Pleasant Beach Police Department previously said officers responded to an assault report after a woman allegedly hit a juvenile.
Tracey was arrested days after the incident and charged with endangering the welfare of a child, simple assault, harassment and obstruction.
"Under President Trump and Secretary Mullin, ICE is targeting the worst of the worst," a DHS spokesperson said. "Nearly 70% of ICE arrests are of illegal aliens charged or convicted of a crime in the U.S. Our message is clear: if you come into our country illegally and break our laws, we will find you, we will arrest you, and we will deport you."
