An Antioch family reached out to 615Nav saying ICE agents arrested the wrong man during a raid, detaining an innocent resident with no criminal history despite being told multiple times they had the wrong person.

According to the family, agents were targeting Gerson Manuel Portillo-Escobar, wanted for human trafficking, who lived at 919 on the street. Instead, they ended up arresting Miguel Antonio Blanco, who lived at 939, a few houses away.

The family told 615Nav that ICE agents observed Miguel flee into his home and mistakenly believed he was Portillo-Escobar. From that point, agents repeatedly called out Portillo-Escobar’s name while trying to get inside. Miguel told them over and over that he was not the person they were looking for. Agents had the correct name, address, and even a photo of the actual target, who lived just a few blocks up the street. None of it mattered.
