El Salvador national detained by ICE in San Francisco without warrant presented
Jul 17, 2026 · San Francisco, CA, El Salvador
Omar de Jesus Bermudez Navarrete, a non-citizen from El Salvador who entered the United States in 2021, was arrested and detained by ICE agents outside his apartment building in San Francisco on July 17, 2026. ICE agents arrested him without presenting a warrant at the time, claiming it was at their office. Navarrete has no criminal record, filed an asylum application, received work authorization, and is the sole provider for his pregnant wife and two young children. The court granted his temporary restraining order requiring immediate release and prohibiting re-detention without a pre-deprivation bond hearing where the government must prove by clear and convincing evidence that detention is necessary to prevent flight or protect the public.
