Chef Gato Missing After Immigration Arrest | Roanoke News
Description
A beloved chef known as Gato at Evie’s Bistro and Bakery in Roanoke has vanished after being arrested early Tuesday morning — his employer says immigration officials took him, and he reportedly whispered “they got me” before a call cut off. Though authorities confirm his arrest and detention at a Farmville facility, his exact location remains hidden after a transfer. Originally from Guatemala and a U.S. resident for 12 years, Gato’s disappearance has shaken the restaurant community, who are rallying to support him and his family through a GoFundMe campaign aimed at legal costs and helping his younger brother. With ICE contacted but no official statement released, the search continues as locals demand justice and clarity.
