ICE arrests Mexican national in driveway without valid warrant
Jul 9, 2026 · Redwood City, CA, Mexico
Jose Luis Coria Ramirez, a Mexican national who re-entered the U.S. without inspection in 2021 and was living in Redwood City with his partner and three children, was detained by ICE officers in his driveway on July 9, 2026, while taking his two-year-old child to daycare. Officers claimed to have an arrest warrant but only showed a zoomed phone screen and did not allow inspection. The warrant later produced was signed in June 2025 with handwritten markings added after arrest. The court found the warrant invalid because no basis for probable cause was checked, and the officers made no individualized determination that Ramirez was a flight risk as required by law. The court granted a temporary restraining order, ordering Ramirez's immediate release and prohibiting re-detention pending an evidentiary hearing.
