ICE beat 63 year old man over the head—rushed to hospital in serious condition.
Now his family has no idea where he is.
Agents won't tell wife anything about his health condition—or even give his location.
"I feel helpless," wife cries.
"Because they won't let me see him."
Pedro Mendoza Chávez was at his gardening job when ICE detained the group he was with.
Agents claim the 63 year old man was resisting arrest.
He has lived in the U.S. more than 22 years—and has 3 minor children with his wife Ruvelina Vega.

ICE kicked 63 year old man to the ground after he already stopped—then "his head burst open."
"The immigration officer hit him," Ruvelina Vega said.
"The officer kicked him, and then threw him to the ground—that’s where his head burst open."
They didn’t stitch the wound—just put in staples.
Now agents still won’t tell her where Pedro Mendoza Chávez is—or how bad the head injury really is.
He was at his gardening job in San Antonio when ICE detained the group he was with.
Lived in the U.S. more than 22 years—with three minor children.
