The officials said around 4 p.m., 15 to 20 Homeland Security vehicles arrived at the museum without notice or legal documentation. According to the group, the agents entered museum property and refused all requests to show a warrant, a badge, or any identification.

Museum officials said the officers told museum staff they were investigating entry and exit points for upcoming events that may draw undocumented immigrants as attendees. When museum staff asked them to leave, the agents refused and continued to walk the grounds, museum officials said. No one was taken into custody, according to museum officials.

Community leaders said they are particularly concerned because this incident comes just days before the neighborhood hosts Barrio Arts Fest on July 12 and 13. Colombian Fest is scheduled for later in July and Fiesta Boricua is scheduled for late August. Officials say the festivals are large cultural celebrations of Latino culture and are expected to draw large crowds, and they are concerned there are intentions to target attendees.
