The crackdown continues…

Despite resistance from California officials, Border Patrol agents in Sacramento arrested 11 illegal migrants during a tense raid at a Home Depot parking lot Thursday, including one man with 67 prior jail bookings since 1986 and a conviction for fentanyl trafficking.

Fox News cameras captured the chaotic scene as migrants scattered across the sanctuary city parking lot, triggering multiple foot chases and physical clashes between masked agents and those fleeing arrest.

From Fox News:

In one foot pursuit, agents chased a man who they say slashed the tire of a law enforcement vehicle. The man claimed to be a U.S. citizen.

Agents eventually maced the man in the face before arresting him and taking him into custody. His wife shouted at agents throughout the incident, insisting he is a U.S. citizen.

Border Patrol agents were forced to drive the damaged vehicle away on its rims.

Gregory Bovino, U.S. Border Patrol chief for the El Centro Sector, said his agency will continue prioritizing the removal of criminal illegal immigrants.

“There is no sanctuary city, Sacramento is not a sanctuary city, the state of California is not a sanctuary state, there is no sanctuary anywhere,” Bovino said. “We’ll be here, you’ll probably see us in many other locations as well. We’re here to stay, we’re not going anywhere. We’re going to effect this mission and secure the homeland.”

Fox News’ Bill Melugin shared details of the raid on X:
