Signal Hill — An Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid at a Home Depot in Signal Hill was caught on camera Monday morning, sparking outrage among witnesses.
The incident unfolded Monday around 8:32am in the store’s parking lot, where bystanders recorded video showing several masked ICE agents. Witnesses can be heard in the footage shouting at the agents as the raid took place.
It remains unclear how many people were taken into custody during the operation, and ICE has not yet released a statement about the raid.
The videos quickly spread on social media, drawing concern from community members who criticized the secrecy of the operation and questioned the presence of agents at a location where day laborers often gather for work opportunities.
Signal Hill police confirmed they were not involved in the raid, noting the enforcement action was carried out solely by federal agents.
