...to arrest an Uber Eats delivery guy, one of several arrests of delivery drivers recorded by eyewitnesses across the Washington area that have gone viral since the Trump administration took over law enforcement in the nation’s capital last week. As a result, delivery drivers have stopped showing up at restaurants to pick up deliveries.

Last Thursday, Vasquez witnessed and recorded the arrest of a delivery driver named Josue Mercedes Franco Cerros, who she said would often come by the restaurant to pick up deliveries.

“He was in front of the restaurant when I see that there are two policemen and they have him,” Vasquez said. “They didn’t give a single explanation. The police would tell him to lift up his hair because they wanted to take a photo. The guy was nervous, he was in shock, crying, of course, because he was working, and for the police to arrive all of a sudden, anyone would get nervous.”

Cerros, a Honduran national, was eventually taken away by law enforcement. His bike was loaded on a truck with the logo of D.C.’s Metropolitan Police Department on it, according to Vasquez and video obtained by NBC News. Almost a day later, Cerros appeared on the ICE detainee locator database in ICE custody in Virginia, where he remained Monday evening.

Veronica Gonzalez, a friend of Cerros’, said he had been living in the area for at least 10 years and had worked delivery during the day and at a local restaurant at night.

In each of these incidents, the brownshirts refuse to identify themselves, say who they work for, give their names or badge numbers, and about 90% are masked.

And it takes 20 of them to arrest a food delivery worker. What a monumental waste of money and resources.

Huh.

Ain't D.C. so much safer having Uber Eats drivers hog tied in the streets and dragged away to a gulag before being deported to, umm, who knows where?

And MAGAts love this?

But, hey, Mad King Donald rolled out the red carpet for a mass murderer and war criminal who killed thousands of civilians and kidnapped thousands of children so there's that.

Evidently, MAGAts loved that, too.

WTAF?
