Dreamers are still on the lookout for immigration authorities despite the fact that the administration of President Donald Trump has not officially decided to officially end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program that protects these guys.

Evidence of this was the arrest on Sunday of a 25-year-old Mexican boy, Francisco J. Rodríguez Dominguez, by agents of the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement Service (ICE) who took him from his House in Portland, Oregon, despite being included in the program and having the permission of a judge - dating from 2014 - to stay in the country.

The arrest occurred at 7:30 am local time, and has left his family and friends deeply confused and shocked. “The experience was terrifying. They don't know what to do, "immigration attorney Stephen Manning told local media. ICE agents were knocking on the door. They did not have an arrest warrant and they were told that they could not enter, but they kept hitting,"

The arrest appears to stem from a misdemeanor committed by the boy in December 2016 while driving while intoxicated. According to reports, after the infraction, Rodríguez underwent a community program and completed all legal requirements that were required at that time.

The young man had lived in Portland since he came to the United States as a child and studied information technology at Mt. Hood Community College. "He has lived here all his life, since he was 5 years old he has grown here and now 25 years later, all of a sudden, boom," said his sister Elisabeth Rodríguez in statements to the local channel WISH TV.

Rodríguez currently works as an employee of a dining room for low-income people, administered the Latino Network organization and was a coach of a soccer team at a local school.

Everyone loves Francisco. I don't know how we are going to say this to the children, families, and school staff with whom you work. They will be heartbroken to hear that he was arrested,”Latino Network executive director Carmen Rubio told the AP agency.

The American Civil Liberties Association stated the arrest in a statement.
