TUCSON, Ariz. — An undocumented man from Honduras, who has lived on Tucson, Arizona’s south side for more than a decade, narrowly avoided being picked up by immigration agents who initially claimed to be utility workers, according to neighbors who witnessed the apparent immigration operation.
While watering flowers in her front yard the morning of May 28, Christine Cariño was approached by two men claiming to be from Tucson Electric Power, she said. One said they were looking for a neighbor of hers.
“He said, ‘We’re trying to find somebody that wanted a free estimate,’” said Cariño, 37, a mother of three and long-time resident of the close-knit neighborhood. Government-politics
