A woman was detained by immigration authorities at San Francisco International Airport on Sunday night around 10:30 p.m. in terminal 3 by gate E2.
She was in the gate area with a young girl. Plain clothed men apparntly with ICE approached her. There was a confrontation around her passport or travel documents. She ended up on the ground, and a crowd formed and began filming. She was eventually moved in a wheelchair while the child cried nearby. At least a dozen police officers arrived on the scene, doing crowd control. It’s unclear what happened to the child afterward.
This is being broadly misunderstood as part of ICE deploying to airports, but it is not related.
- San Francisco’s airport is not one of the 13 that are currently part of that program
- SFO airport security screeners have to continued to be paid, because the airport uses private contractors rather than TSA.
- The incident occurred Sunday night, while the ICE airport deployment began on Monday.

Another angle from the scene: Rabid Responders screaming at ICE agents while police surround them to let the agents do their job.

Airports are easy places for law enforcement to nab people. Travel records tell them where the person will be – the airport, time and even gate. They’ve gone through security and been screened for weapoins. And they’re a choke point without easy routes of escape. Immigration enforcement has been more visible and more aggressive, but the deployment of ICE to airports actually distracts from this rather than incident being a part of this effort.
Kim Katie seems like a winner
“Worst of the worst” … “violent criminals” … “TdA” …
Nope, turns out… just harmless abuelas self-deporting… *facepalm*
If I were running from the police, I would purposely use my credit card to buy a plane tixx just to send them on a “wild goose chase” knowing my banking and travel records are being monitored.
So, the real story here is that the federal government did it’s job and apprehended and is in the process of apparently deporting an illegal alien. Yes, this is what I voted for. I’m guessing that the posters wringing their hands have never lost a job to an illegal alien (I have), nor ever been injured by an illegal (my aunt was seriously injured in a traffic accident caused by an illegal). When you’ve been injured in some way by someone who isn’t even supposed to be in the country, your opinions tend to change.
You voted for four years of trying to justify on travel blog message boards why a pedophile’s paramilitary force is actually doing something positive for the country?
