Federal agents arrested at least three men outside a San Bernardino County Superior Court, prompting concerns from advocates about increased immigration enforcement actions. Witnesses reported seeing agents detain individuals as they left the courthouse. Lizbeth Abeln, executive director of the Inland Coalition for Immigrant Justice, stated that these actions violate due process rights. The Department of Homeland Security confirmed the arrests were part of targeted operations, involving individuals from Colombia and Mexico, including Godofredo Chiquete Lopez, who faces multiple charges.
