Mass. woman speaks out after video shows ICE agents smashing car window to get husband

New Bedford Mayor Jon Mitchell said in a statement that “ICE appears to have broken from its long-standing practice of alerting our police department ahead of planned operations."

Marilu Mendez said when ICE vehicles began following her and her husband Monday and then surrounded their car on Tallman Street in New Bedford, she took out her cell phone and started recording.

Her video shows a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforement agent using a large hammer to break the back passenger window of their car.

Marilu said the agents were focused on her husband, Juan, but kept calling him “Antonio”, the name of another man who lives in their building.

Juan Mendez is now being held in a detention facility in Dover, New Hampshire, with a hearing scheduled for May 7.

    I watched that video and I was terrified. If a group of people stop my car and come at me with sledgehammers then I will assume they mean to do me bodily harm. That’s what terrified me most about that video. It’s only a matter of time before “ICE” starts straight up killing people.
