A California couple died in a car crash Tuesday after fleeing from immigration officials, police said.
Santo Garcia, 35, and Marcelina Profecto, 33, died at the scene in rural Kern County after their speeding SUV crashed into a power pole and overturned , Delano police said.
Police determined the couple was fleeing from Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials, who tried to stop their vehicle.
The driver pulled over, but then began speeding after the agents flashed their emergency lights and got out of their vehicle, police said.
The couple, who has six children, was out looking for work when they noticed ICE was following them, Arturo Rodriguez, president of the United Farm Workers of America, told KGET-TV.

From another article...And were supposed to belive they were out looking for work? BS
“”Agency spokeswoman Lori K. Haley said the officers first went to the couple’s home looking for another man wanted for deportation and followed them as they drove away.””

33 Years old, six anchor babies.
Either way we pay for the kids.
And people wonder why we’re pissed.

THE NARRATIVE....
The Democrat-supporting narrative is so much more important than any truth. Have you not been paying attention?
But this article says they were out looking work when this happened.
What a media farce!
The real story....
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KBAK/KBFX) — Two people were killed in a crash Tuesday morning while fleeing federal immigration agents in Delano, police said.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement said its officers arrived at a home to arrest a “previously removed Mexican citizen.” ICE said a man matching the target’s description came out of the house and drove away.

Have I been paying attention? I’m the guy that brought you the real story...lol
Extreme self-elimination/deportation.
My understanding is that there was not really any police chase. They stopped for police, but when the police got out of the car they took off and before the cops could get in the car and catch them, they lost control and smacked into a pole. The cops then eventually got to the scene of the accident.
... and, as luck would have it, they were actually job hunting at that very time!
ICE pulled up to their home and then the couple fled. They knew damn well ICE was on hot on their azz.
Fleeing from Law Enforcement is stupid.
maybe
I’m not buying that either. Could have been going to file for more government programs for all I know.
“The couple, who has six children, was out looking for work when they noticed ICE was following them,”
SIX kids and they don’t have jobs? So taxpayers are paying for food, shelter, etc, for these people and their SIX kids. That are likely wasting our money in public schools unable to speak of word of English.
I want to hear the libs tell me how law abiding these people were. They were running from ICE agents - that’s against the law. They were speeding - that’s against the law. They could’ve killed Americans instead of just themselves - libs would be just fine with that, I suppose.
It's a ridiculous occurrence. Because they were illegal, without a doubt, they left the children parentless, maybe. We really don't know if they were all their biological children or not, or if they were born here, but we can be damn sure that the taxpayer is fully on the hook for them for many years to come!
I just can't work up a whole lot of sympathy for two people that acted so stupidly and affected more than just their children's lives because they were afraid of being deported.
It says a lot that they’d prefer death over going back to mexico.
They were out “looking for work”?
How were they supporting themselves before this? (with six children)
Or were we supporting them WHILE they were workgin off the books?
(See: Joe Legal -vs- Jose Illegal )
It says a lot that theyd prefer death over going back to mexico.
Perhaps they considered their home county a shithole.
He was probably drunk when authorities stopped their car.. Then he takes off and gets himself and his wife killed. We don’t need illegals with poor judgement endangering our country.. We have more than enough Leftists doing that! BUILD THE WALL!
I think it’s “who HAD 6 children”
Based on previous stories I have seen about this, they were not a “Calif. Couple...” - they were illegal aliens.
