“I’ve never been this worried,” Victor Lopez de Lara’s fiancée said. “I’m devastated. I’m scared of what can happen.”
According to his fiancée, Victor Lopez de Lara was driving to Troy, MO, to work when he was stopped by O’Fallon Police.
“They said he had no front plate on his van,” Lopez de Lara’s fiancée said. “They asked for his driver’s license, but because he’s undocumented he had no driver’s license.”
After being taken in on municipal traffic charges a spokesman for the O’Fallon Police Dept. told 5 On Your Side that Lopez de Lara was turned over to Immigrations and Customs Enforcement, but it’s not clear who requested the ICE detainer.
“They never gave him a chance to leave, get bond, or anything,” Lopez de Lara’s fiancée said.

Victor Lopez de Lara's deportation hearing has already been set for March 2nd at 3PM.
