Federal agents arrested a California councilwoman's husband in a Walmart parking lot on Monday, a move she said came out of nowhere. Yadira Perez, who sits on the Coachella City Council, captured the moment when Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents surrounded them before arresting her husband, Isidro Jimenez-Ibanez. "My family was just separated. They have taken my kids' father. Those are the desperate cries of help," the councilmember said in a video shared on social media. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) later said the man is a Mexican national in the country illegally, with an extensive criminal record. The 51-year-old's arrest outside the Walmart in Coachella came as part of "targeted enforcement action," ICE said in a press release. |
