A 72-year-old undocumented man, Genaro Gonzalez-Uribe, was detained by federal immigration agents while heading to work on Monday morning. His family is seeking immediate assistance and are concerned about his health. Despite previous detentions, Gonzales has no prior deportations, no removal orders, and no criminal history. The possibility of deportation to a country he hasn't lived in for decades is difficult to process. The family is traveling to visit Gonzalez and seeking legal assistance for his case.
