\n\t\t\t\t\t\tU.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents caused outrage at the San Francisco International Airport on Sunday night after appearing to restrain a crying woman in front of her child, footage shows.In one video posted on social media, a crowd of people hold up their phones while others shout at a row of San Francisco Police Department officers who appear to be standing guard and aiding the ICE agents as they conduct the enforcement. Behind them, two men in plainclothes can be seen dragging the woman into a blue wheelchair while she visibly struggles. Handcuffs appear to dangle from her wrist.\u201cLeave her alone,\u201d one bystander yells.\u201cWhat the f\u2014k are you doing?\u201d a man shouts. In another widely circulated video captured from another angle, the two men in plainclothes restrain the woman on the ground as she wails and cries. A person in the crowd repeatedly demands to hear the agents\u2019 badge numbers; in the background, a young girl with braided hair sobs. \u201cWe understand federal officers were transporting two individuals on an outbound flight when this incident occurred,\u201d SFO spokesperson Doug Yakel told SFGATE on Monday. \u201cWe believe this is an isolated incident and have no reason to suspect broader enforcement action at SFO.\u201dYakel added that the airport was not involved or notified of the enforcement in advance.\u201cThe airport\u2019s role is to ensure the safe and efficient operation of the facility for all passengers and staff,\u201d he said.\u201cConsistent with our City Charter, state law, and SFPD department policy, we do not assist in the enforcement of civil federal immigration laws,\u201d SFPD\u2019s media relations unit told SFGATE Monday.\u201cOn Sunday, March 22, at approximately 10:00 p.m., SFPD officers responded to a 911 call at San Francisco International Airport. Officers arrived on scene and determined the incident involved federal immigration officials,\u201d it said, adding that police officers were present to maintain public safety. California state Sen. Scott Wiener reposted the video on X, condemning the agency and demanding that ICE leave California. \u201cICE was at SFO airport last night, terrorizing a mother while her daughter watched,\u201d he wrote. Toward the end of one of the videos, amid shouts and boos, the two men in plainclothes haul the woman off, while an officer escorts the young girl by her side. Crowd members beg them to stop. \u201cWe\u2019ll remember your faces,\u201d one person says. About 10 officers surround the woman and child as they exit the gate, ignoring the heckling crowd behind them.\u201cThis is the face of America,\u201d one man shouts at them. \u201cCongratulations.\u201dThis news story has been updated.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
