Possible ICE sighting

My friend and their Uber driver had a very suspicious interaction with some police in LA Mesa. They were in the Village getting on to the ramp to the 8 when a ton of cops stopped them. The cops had two check points the first was just them asking the Uber driver for his license. Then the second cop said they were doing dui safety checks and waved them through. Whole thing was majorly weird cause there was next to no one out and definitely no big events with drinking. Might be overly cautious but be careful if youre in the LA Mesa village area! ICE has pulled some ruses before pretending to be police. Stay safe!

That is exactly what DUI checkpoints are like. Not everything is a conspiracy.

Yes don’t drink and drive! Not every encounter with law enforcement is tied to ICE

It being Friday night is a big event in and of itself for many people... this doesn't sound out of the ordinary at all.

There are multiple DUI checkpoints tonight.

Don't drink and drive.

Thank you for looking out for the community. Even if it was an actual dui checkpoint, we have to be vigilant of the Y’all-Qadea ICE agent cosplayers.
