Culver City ice cream vendor returns home after months in ICE detention [View all]

Enrique Lozano, who has lived in Los Angeles for nearly 20 years, was taken into custody by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in June while selling ice cream along Culver Boulevard. His arrest, which left his cart abandoned in the street, prompted concern among residents who had known him for years.

Community members raised funds, hired attorneys, and launched a campaign supporting Lozano. “When he was taken away, it shook this community,” said Fred Delgado, a Culver City resident.

After four months in ICE detention, Lozano was granted permanent residency through his wife, a U.S. resident, according to his attorney, Ebony Espinoza. 

Lozano, who has no criminal record, celebrated his release by giving away free ice cream at Veterans Park to thank those who supported him.
