Yesterday, ICE agents were in the city of Anaheim, where they took one person on Euclid and Romneya from the Stone Creek Plaza.
That’s the plaza that’s just down the street from the North Orange County Community College District.
They also kidnapped three workers from their truck in the Thermal/Oasis area in the Coachella Valley, just a few days away from the Coachella Music Festival.
They were also at the ISAP office in San Bernardino, however no one was reported to be taken.
Here in Los Angeles, they were in Glendora, San Gabriel, and Lennox.
At least two people were taken from Los Angeles County yesterday.
Further up north in the city of Patterson, ICE agents have once again shot at a community member, claiming that they were defensive shots.
Despite dashcam footage showing an entirely different picture, ICE alleged that Carlos Ivan Mendoza Hernandez attempted to run over an agent.
The footage shows that he attempted to drive around them, the same way that Renee Good did before she was murdered.
I spoke with a family member of Mendoza Hernandez who stated that his fiancé has yet to receive any updates on him.
ICE alleged that Mendoza Hernandez was an 18th Street gang member and wanted for questioning regarding a murder in El Salvador, but his family says otherwise, stating this must have been a case of misidentification.
They said he has lived in the city of Patterson for four years and has no gang affiliation; he is simply just from El Salvador and was acquitted in 2019 on a prior murder accusation.
Today, ICE agents returned to the ISAP office in downtown Los Angeles on Hill St and 2nd St, where they kidnapped a woman and a man within an hour.
They returned to Corona again and took two people from a gas station and a strip mall, and were also seen scouting around a Riverside Courthouse and a strip mall in Ontario.
They have also been seen once again in the city of San Diego.
Stay safe and stay alert.
