Rumeysa Ozturk, an international student at Tufts University in Massachusetts, was taken into federal custody outside an off-campus apartment building, according to the university’s president and an attorney representing the student. Ozturk, a Turkish citizen, had a valid student visa as a doctoral student at Tufts, according to a statement from her lawyer. Ozturk, who is Muslim, was heading out to break her Ramadan fast with friends Tuesday night when she was detained by agents from the Department of Homeland Security near her apartment in Somerville, Massachusetts. #Tufts
