‘Devastated’ family demands answers after two-year-old driven by armed agents from LA Home Depot parking lot
Masked, heavily armed federal immigration agents arrested a US citizen in the parking lot of a Los Angeles Home Depot store, then entered his car and drove away with his toddler, who is also a US citizen, in the backseat.
The child’s grandmother said the incident had left the whole family shaken. “I am devastated by what has happened to my son and demand an explanation,” she said at a press conference on Wednesday.
The 32-year-old father was picked up during a major enforcement operation at the Home Depot in LA’s Cypress Park neighborhood on Tuesday morning. According to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), five undocumented immigrants were also arrested.
I realize this is a weird thing to get caught up on, but I’m gonna guess they didnt have a car seat for that toddler, and that enrages me almost as much as their mere existence
They drove off in the guy’s car, not an ICE vehicle.
