told ABC7<\/a> that the car was being pursued by federal agents when the driver crashed on the residential street.<\/p>\n\u201cIt\u2019s just scary, you know, we have a school that\u2019s just a few hundred yards away,\u201d a local resident identified only as Andrew told the station. \u201cYou\u2019ve got kids that are here, kids that are fearful for their parents to get taken away. It\u2019s very alarming.\u201d<\/p>\n
By 9:30 a.m., a crowd of more than 30 people had gathered near the police tape closing off the street where several federal agents stood, some dressed in plainclothes and others in tactical gear with masks.<\/p>\n
One woman shouted, \u201cLet\u2019s see your ugly face,\u201d while another person driving by slowed down to yell, \u201cF\u2014 you,\u201d out the window.<\/p>\n
Residents who wandered out of their homes and a nearby apartment complex stood in their yards recording the agents with their cellphones. One man with a bullhorn cursed at immigration agents at the intersection, while another person waved the Mexican flag.<\/p>\n
Andrew told ABC7 he posted about the incident on social media.<\/p>\n
\u201cA lot of us have immigrant parents, so we\u2019re just trying to be aware of our surroundings,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Among those who came to the intersection was Joanna Cristobal, 30, who said she woke up and learned about the incident on TikTok.<\/p>\n
\u201cI feel like I want to cry,\u201d she said, gazing at the agents. \u201cI hate to see them taking our people. I want them out of here.\u201d<\/p>\n
The gathered crowd chanted, \u201cWhose street? Our street.\u201d<\/p>\n
