ICE arrests near schools spur new outcry in San Diego (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A rising tide of local immigration enforcement, a string of arrests near campuses — including parents of young students and one reported college student — has San Diego-area officials issuing renewed demands for agents to stand down. In the past two weeks, there have been at least four ICE arrests of parents and students on streets that border San Diego educational institutions.
