Five-year-old Iranian-origin boy detained at US airport

Update: 2017-02-01 17:03 GMT
A five-year-old Iranian-origin boy was reportedly detained for hours at an airport near here following President Donald Trump's immigration order with the White House saying he might have posed a "security risk".

Video footage taken on the weekend showed the emotional reunion between the boy, reportedly a US citizen, and his Iranian mother who waited for hours at Washington Dulles International Airport for her son to be released, WILX-TV reported.

Democrats say the boy is a US citizen from Maryland and his mother is from Iran, as said by the sources.
