A family in Hamilton, Ohio, is seeking answers after Immigration and Customs Enforcement detained Alberto Lira Razo, a father of five, on Friday. His daughter, Yulianna Lira, said she witnessed agents tase him and forcibly remove him from his vehicle. The family says it has received little information about what will happen next.

Earlier that day, Razo had picked Yulianna up from school because she was feeling unwell. She said they had been home for only minutes when she went outside to check on him and found agents trying to pull him from his van. She described the vehicle's window as broken and said her father was calling out her name.

Yulianna began recording the encounter on her phone. According to her account, agents tased her father, pulled him out of the van and pushed her away when she tried to reach him and her 4-year-old brother. She said she screamed and cried as the encounter unfolded, describing an event she had repeatedly feared.

Afterward, Yulianna said she kept apologizing to her father because she felt responsible for asking to leave school. She believed the family would not have been in that situation if she had stayed there. Her account described both her fear during the detention and the guilt she felt about the circumstances that preceded it.

Razo's wife, Moriah Lira, said her husband was already in a police vehicle by the time she arrived. She said he has lived in the United States since he was 16 and has no criminal history. According to Moriah, the family has been working for more than a decade to resolve his immigration status.

The detention has left the household facing uncertainty about its sole provider, Moriah said. At the time of the interview, the family had received little information about her husband's next steps. An attorney is working on his case, and the family hopes he can be released on bond.

Moriah also described the distress among the couple's children. She said their 4-year-old son had cried through the night asking for his father, while the children were upset and struggling to sleep. She said the family needs Razo home, both as a father and as its financial provider.

WCPO 9 sought a response from the Department of Homeland Security but had not received one by the time of its report.
