Narciso Barranco, an undocumented father of three Marines, was forcibly detained by immigration agents in California last month. Footage shows agents tackling him after he fled. Released on bond, Barranco spoke at a press conference, thanking his family and community for their support and pleading with authorities to allow families to reunite. His lawyer stated his case isn't isolated. DHS claims Barranco resisted arrest and swung a weed wacker, while his son described a violent, unwarranted attack. Barranco's immigration hearing is scheduled for August.
