Federal agents in Tucson impersonate utility workers to lure Honduran man who has lived in the community for over a decade
May 2025·Location: Tucson, AZ
Country of origin: Honduras

In Arizona, a woman watering her flowers spoke with two men who said they were from Tucson Electric Power and were looking for a resident who wanted a 'free estimate.' She watched as they entered her neighbor's yard. Noticing one had a badge under his shirt, she suspected they were immigration agents and ran to warn her neighbor, a Honduran man who had lived in the community for more than a decade, before he let them into his home.
