From Fox News: Dramatic video shows several illegal immigrants scrambling across rooftops in California as they try to flee federal immigration agents during an enforcement operation at a small construction site.
The frantic footage shows two individuals scaling a ladder onto the roof of a home in Montebello on Wednesday, shortly after authorities pulled up outside the single-story house. Montebello is a city in Los Angeles County
One of the individuals appeared to try to knock the ladder to the ground in an apparent attempt to prevent agents from following, but an officer caught the ladder and propped it back against the house.
The illegal immigrants then split up, leaping onto separate nearby rooftops as they fled.
The incident reportedly happened in the Montebello area.
Although local news outlet ABC7 initially stated that no one was detained, DHS later clarified, “These operations resulted in the arrest of five illegal aliens from Mexico and Guatemala who have all broken the immigration laws of this country. These individuals will remain in custody pending further immigration proceedings.”
