Female ICE agents fake car breakdown to lure father out of house and arrest him
A family claims that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers tricked Jesus Flores into leaving his Minnesota home by feigning car trouble to arrest him.
The incident, captured on a neighbour's security camera, shows two women approaching Flores's home asking for help with their vehicle before other SUVs arrived to apprehend him.
Flores's son, Miguel Flores, described the family as shocked, scared, and heartbroken by the unexpected situation, noting his father is a hard-working individual who came to the US for a better life for his six children, who are US citizens.
The Department of Homeland Security stated that Flores, identified as Jesus Emmanuel Flores-Aguilar, is an alleged former Vatos Locos 13 gang member with a criminal history, who had been removed from the US twice before.
This arrest occurred as President Trump's border czar, Tom Homan, announced the withdrawal of some officers from Minnesota but confirmed a force would remain for future operations and to prevent interference from protesters.
