The woman in medical scrubs was said to be
on her way to work in Florida when ICE stopped her. In the video, she can be seen being dragged out of her car while resisting and sounding scared and in distress.
The footage displays a highly upsetting scene, as
several officers proceed to pin down the woman, who can then be heard and seen screaming, “I’m a U.S. citizen, please help me. This is unfair. Why are you doing this to me?”
The video was recorded by a Miami Herald reporter at about 9:15 a.m. in Key Largo, in front of the Pink Plaza at mile marker 103.4. The federal agents are said to have stopped the woman driving a white Toyota Corolla and surrounded the vehicle, according to the Miami Herald.
The outlet says the woman was released a short time after the incident, which occurred while border patrol agents were operating at Rowell’s Waterfront Park at mile marker 104.5 on the bayside of Key Largo from 7 a.m. to 11 a.m.
