Chaos broke out at a Southern California surgical center this week when federal immigration officers tried to arrest an illegal alien landscaper from Honduras — and hospital staff physically interfered, dragging both the man and the officer inside the building.
The confrontation happened Tuesday at the Ontario Advanced Surgery Center, about 30 miles east of Los Angeles.
ICE agents with the Department of Homeland Security were conducting a targeted operation to arrest two illegal aliens, according to a DHS statement. One of the targets, Denis Guillen-Solis, fled on foot.
He ran toward the surgery center, where staff in blue medical scrubs began physically blocking federal agents from doing their job.
“You Don’t Even Have a Warrant!”
Video shows the shocking moment when one staffer yells at the officer to let the migrant go:
“Get your hands off of him! Let him go. You need to get out!”
Another staff member claimed agents needed a warrant to make the arrest — which is not true under federal immigration law.
