Following the altercation, dozens of community members as well as federal agents with the Homeland Security Investigations vests gathered outside the home.

At least one person was arrested for assaulting a federal officer, San Bernardino police said.

But the person was set free “despite refusing to comply and wounding officers,” the DHS said.

It really does sound like they’re just making shit up as they go. Would they really set an arrestee free after “assaulting and wounding” one of theirs? I call bull shit.

BORDER PATROL FIRES ON CIVILIAN VEHICLE, STAGES WARRANTLESS OPERATION At approximately 8:40am, immigration agents stopped a vehicle, broke the driver and passenger windows, and fired three times while people were inside. The individual returned home after it became clear agents had no warrant. In fear, the family called SBPD for help. Instead of intervening, SBPD did little to assist. By 9:30am, armed ICE and HSI agents, joined by SBPD, surrounded the home. Despite never presenting a warrant, they remained until 3:45pm, pressuring the individual to come outside. During the incident, two community members were detained using unnecessary force, including one for speaking out. This was a clear abuse of power. Firing at civilians, harassing families without cause, and targeting community voices must stop. We demand full accountability and transparency from SBPD and DHS. We thank all who showed up to support the family. Because of that collective pressure, ICE left. This is not an isolated incident it is part of a larger, unacceptable pattern.

Right… Everyone knows that local police and sheriffs are shining examples of accountability and restraint…
