The City of Pasadena canceled swim lessons and other activities in local parks to stop ICE from making arrests.
Pasadena is located northeast of downtown Los Angeles.
According to KABC, two men were ‘snatched off the street’ on Saturday while buying tamales in Villa Parke, so the city decided to shut down activities to stop ICE from making more arrests.
Federal agents were also spotted near an apartment complex in Pasadena making arrests on Saturday.
“The City of Pasadena is cancelling programming, including swim lessons and other programs at Villa Parke, Robinson Park and Victory Park today, Saturday, June 21, out of an abundance of caution after seeing social media posts of what appears to be federal enforcement activity at Villa Parke this morning and the potential escalation of conflict that unannounced federal enforcement activity causes,” the City of Pasadena said.

“The city is not being informed. They just showed up and took people right off the street. They did not identify themselves, showed up in unmarked vehicles, wielding serious weaponry,” Pasadena Mayor Victor Gordo said.
