After a rather extensive list of google searches, I can say that this claim is FALSE.
Recently, there's been media surfacing about this topic, but there has been zero buzz from established media sources regarding the arrest of ICE agents by NYPD. This issue hasn't garnered substantial media attention, resulting in a lack of verifiable information regarding this topic, but there are a few sites covering the topic.
[2] [1] Video material surfacing appears to be AI-generated, supposedly from Sora AI. As the video was posted initially on social platforms on TikTok / Instagram, it was reposted and spread around the internet. Some even have the SORA AI Label.
Although the credibility of such sources is questionable, the evident lack of information available on the web regarding what would be an issue that would spark much debate online and in-person, in addition to any lack of statement from the NYPD themselves leads to a conclusion that this claim is FALSE.
