Mob heckles Homeland Security agent involved in Long Island car crash: ‘Get the f–k out of here!'
A huge mob surrounded a uniformed Department of Homeland Security official involved in a car accident outside a grammar school in Long Island on Tuesday after locals suspected they were part of Immigration and Customs Enforcement measures, according to a report. Dozens of people surrounded the crash scene at roughly 1:30 p.m. just one block from Park Avenue Elementary School, where an unmarked silver car carrying federal agents collided with a black Nissan pickup truck, according to a report from Newsday. The unruly group berated the federal agents, who were wearing Homeland Security Investigation insignias on their uniforms, as well as a mass of first responders, which included police officers, mounted units, and ambulances the report stated citing Nassau County Police. Video posted to social media showed dozens of angry people recording the officers with their phones, shouting expletives in Spanish with some occasionally yelling in English 'Get the f–k out of here!' and 'You f–king b—h!' at the federal officer. One person in the mob could be heard suggesting the officer was going to the Park Avenue Elementary School. 'Get the f–k out of Westbury!,' one man, who spoke mostly Spanish, said in a video from the scene. 'We told them they don't belong in Westbury,' Carina Hernandez, 45, who was at the scene, told the outlet outside the school. 'I'm a mom and I'm speaking up with a voice because a lot of people can't talk. They're scared. Thank God I'm legal in this country, but a lot of people are not blessed,' Hernandez, whose son is a Marine, told the outlet. The federal investigators involved in the crash were not working with the Immigration and Customs Enforcement during the time of the accident but instead were investigating a separate matter, according to that report. There were no arrests stemming from the incident, the report driver of the black Nissan pickup truck was transported by EMS to an area hospital while the federal agent was taken by authorities in a black SUV to an area hospital where she was treated for minor injuries, Newsday reported.
