Immigration agent fires shots at vehicle with people inside in San Bernardino operation

"A man contacted the dispatch center, saying that masked men had tried to pull him over, broke his car window and shot at him."

Text from a statement by the Inland Coalition for Immigrant Justice in black font on a tan background. At the bottom is a black and white photo of police and a police deployed with people confronting them. The statement reads:

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.
