Vicente Ventura Aguilar, a Mexican man in the U.S. illegally, was arrested by federal immigration agents on a street corner in South Los Angeles, according to eyewitnesses. A day later, while in the custody of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Ventura suffered a medical emergency, losing consciousness and falling to the floor with his limbs shaking, according to a man who says he was detained with him.

Since then, Ventura has effectively disappeared.

It’s been more than six weeks.

ICE told Ventura’s family he was not in its custody, and his loved ones and lawyers have been unable to locate or contact him. They have searched hospitals and morgues and recruited help to look for him in Mexico. They have even filed a missing person report with the Los Angeles Police Department.

“The whole family is worried, especially our mother in Mexico,” said Ventura’s brother Felipe. “We’re afraid that he’s dead.”
