California dad taking his daughter to school arrested by immigration agents
An undocumented immigrant father was arrested by immigration agents Thursday as he was taking his daughter to school in the city of Azusa.
Security camera video captured the arrest just before 7:45 a.m. The man is seen wearing a blue outfit walking to his family truck when several agents box him in.
His wife recorded the moment he was put into a grey sedan after his 14-year-old daughter, whom he was about to drive to school, ran back inside crying and afraid, saying someone had taken her dad. The couple came to the U.S. 21 years ago from Puebla, Mexico, looking for better opportunities, according to the wife. She said their lives are now deeply rooted in Azusa as they have three children and a grandchild.The couple came to the U.S. 21 years ago from Puebla, Mexico, looking for better opportunities, according to the wife.

“He didn’t have a deportation order, I don’t know why they took him. Why did they take him?” the wife said.

“Terrible things are happening outside. At any time of night and day, poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. They’re allowed to take only a knapsack and a little cash with them, and even then, they’re robbed of these possessions on the way. Families are torn apart; men, women and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared. Women return from shopping to find their houses sealed, their families gone."
