(1,034 posts)Masked agents detain civil engineer in Portland, leave his car running in the street with a smashed window
Masked agents in police vests detained Juan Sebastian Carvajal-Munoz, a civil engineer from Colombia employed by an engineering consulting company, in Portland on Thursday morning. Carvajal-Munoz earned a masters degree from the University of Maine, and colleagues said he was in the country on a work visa.
An unmarked dark Subaru with tinted windows cut off Carvajal-Munoz as he was driving his grey Hyundai Tucson on Pearl Street in downtown Portland at 8:46 a.m., according to Jesse Smith, who witnessed the encounter.

(195,246 posts)But during recent immigration raids, cars, fruit carts, and equipment have been abandoned in public after people have been detained by masked federal agents, who are often seen in videos leaving the area hurriedly and leaving property behind.
Santa Ana police said they were looking for ways to identify owners and return the property before it is towed away or somehow lost, creating a further burden for families affected by deportations.
A growing inventory of deserted belongings has been scattered across Southern California amid the Trump administration's aggressive immigration sweeps. In each case, the possessions have been left behind by people nabbed without warning by federal agents. Cars. Vending carts. Work tools. Food trucks. When authorities arrested two gardeners outside an Ontario residence, the homeowner went outside to see the lawn mower still running, the lawn half cut and the workers' truck in the driveway, he told local reporters.
