"The 60-year-old grandmother is one of at least 539 people arrested at such routine immigration appointments in the first 10 months of President Trump's administration."
"Unlike arrests at court hearings, which Mission Local has been tracking since late May 2025, the arrests at immigration field office appointments are done in private."
"The data covers arrests in the San Francisco area, including San Francisco proper, San Mateo County, Alameda County, Marin County and portions of Contra Costa and Sonoma Counties."
"In the vast majority of these arrests, immigrants are sent to the holding room on the sixth floor of 630 Sansome St. in downtown San Francisco."
A 60-year-old grandmother from Venezuela was arrested during a routine check-in appointment with Immigration and Customs Enforcement in San Francisco. She was an asylum-seeker with no criminal record. This incident is part of a larger trend, with at least 539 people arrested at similar appointments in the first 10 months of President Trump's administration. These arrests occur in private rooms, unlike court hearings, making it difficult to track. The data indicates a significant number of arrests at immigration field offices in the San Francisco area.
