SEIU, a union that represents home healthcare workers in Salem, Oregon, said one of their members was driving to pay her rent and pick up a birthday cake when she noticed she was being followed by unmarked vehicles with no license plates:
"The vehicle pulled up, stopped in front of her, while another vehicle parked behind her, boxing her in so she could not drive away. Four masked agents -- one woman and three men -- wearing vests marked "POLICE" exited their vehicles. One of them banged on her window, demanding that she show them "papers"
When Maria did not immediately respond, the agents shattered her car window, forcibly removed her from the vehicle and threw her to the ground, causing numerous injuries. The agents emptied her purse, discovered her passport, then left Maria there without seeking medical attention for her. Maria feared for her life -- she has severe asthma and is medically fragile. Because of her condition, she was worried about what would happen if she got tear gassed."
The number of immigration agents in Minnesota may be reduced, but they'll leave leave behind a changed community, including many U.S. citizens questioned and detained in recent weeks.

After these masked goons found the victim's passport in her purse, they left her injured on the street and departed.
No robbery or abduction.
Salem Police Dept did nothing to help the victim but told her to call the FBI since her attackers were "federal."
