Dramatic moment car wash employee faints while being arrested by ICE…seconds after trying to flee

A car wash worker collapsed as immigration agents detained her during a sweeping raid of the Southern California business.

Chaos erupted at Bixby Knoll’s Car Wash in Long Beach when ICE agents arrived on Saturday morning around 10am.

Heart-pounding cellphone footage taken by stunned witnesses showed multiple employees being captured and cuffed by mask-wearing federal officers.

The ICE raid resulted in the detainment of seven car wash employees, KTLA reported.

A female employee, wearing all black, was filmed as she tried to sprint away from an agent as he chased after her.

But her getaway attempt was unsuccessful. A Border Patrol agent grabbed her arm and escorted her toward a federal vehicle.

Still holding a red rag she used to wash cars, the detainee appeared sluggish. She began rubbing her neck and breathing heavily in discomfort as agents arrested her.

She suddenly fainted, with the officer who stopped her from fleeing catching her fall and slowly bringing her to the ground of the parking lot.

The man filming the video yelled at agents to get medical assistance for the woman.

Agents then picked her back up and placed her inside the car.

‘The most striking thing for me was a woman probably my mother’s age running with her work tools being chased by a young ICE agent, running for her life,’ the man who recorded the fainting woman told KTLA.

Another woman was also filmed as she tried to flee. Wearing a green shirt, she was later seen being handcuffed by the woman who had fainted.

One man, wearing a blue shirt, was seen calmly following an agent to the Border Patrol vehicle, which had a Georgia license plate.

‘That’s illegal that you’re taking him because he’s a resident,’ the man recording tried telling the agents. ‘Please, he’s a resident.’

‘We’re gonna check. If he’s good, we’ll bring him back,’ one officer replied.

But other arrests sparked stronger reactions, with one woman seemingly filming as her father was being taken away.

‘What’s f**king wrong with you guys?’ she yelled at agents as she filmed the raid on her phone. ‘Are you f**king proud of yourselves?’

The same woman then leaned toward the window of the cop car, addressing the recently arrested man in the backseat.

‘I’m so sorry, Papa, I should’ve been here,’ she tearfully said. When an officer approached her to ask her to step back, she said ‘f**k you.’

‘You’re kids are probably so f**king embarrassed of you…how do you sleep at night?’ the distraught daughter screamed at an agent after the car drove off.

A few other witnesses were also heard shouting at the agents to leave the area.

Apparently unfazed by the disarray, one customer was heard bluntly asking: ‘Who’s gonna finish my car?’

The car wash raid comes just about a week after Supreme Court ruled that Donald Trump’s administration could resume its immigration crackdowns in Los Angeles and seven other Southern California counties.

Estimates from the Public Policy Institute of California suggest that one in 10 workers in the Golden State are undocumented immigrants, while the Migration Policy Institute reports there are roughly 950,000 ‘unauthorized’ residents in LA County.

The conservative majority struck down a lower court ruling that had restricted federal agents from targeting the city for deportations. The three liberal justices — Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson – dissented.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem had asked the high court to lift the July order from a California district judge that temporarily blocked raids in the region.

While this was a major victory for the White House, as Trump has vowed to tackle illegal immigration, Democratic leaders are concerned this may lead to unjust arrests.

‘We should not have to live in a country where the Government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish, and appears to work a low wage job,’ Sotomayor wrote in disagreement with the ruling.

‘Rather than stand idly by while our constitutional freedoms are lost, I dissent.’

NBC reported that more than 58,000 undocumented immigrants have been taken into custody since Trump became president.

Roughly 30 percent of those arrested have criminal convictions, while 25 percent have pending charges against them. The remaining 45 percent were described as ‘other immigration violator.’
