A Nicaraguan Immigrant and His Family Have Been Barricaded at Home for Days After He Outran ICE Agents
FONTANA, CALIFORNIA, AUG 9 – Roberto Reyes and his family remain barricaded in their home fearing detention despite no warrant, while community groups provide food and support during their isolation.
- Roberto Reyes, a Nicaraguan immigrant, and his family have been barricaded inside their Fontana, California, apartment since July 30 to avoid immigration detention.
- Reyes ran inside his apartment after four white cars boxed in his vehicle and federal agents unsuccessfully tried to detain him without presenting a warrant.
- Security footage captured an officer fiercely kicking the front door and waving keys near cameras, while Reyes said unknown cars and infiltrators continue to surveil the family.
- Reyes shared his concern about families being divided during deportations, explaining that children are sometimes left behind when adults are sent away, and community groups have stepped in to offer food and assistance.
- The barricade has harmed the family's mental health, kept Reyes from working as an electrician, and raised concerns over a mother-in-law recovering from lung surgery.
