Immigration Officials Raid Evendale Business
Federal immigration agents and local police raided an Evendale business Wednesday and arrested more than 30 people.
The raid happened at IFCO Systems on Evendale Drive in Evendale and police say they were looking for illegal immigrants.
After about an hour, agents left escorting two white vans but they declined to say who or how many people are in their custody.
A spokesperson for Immigrations and Customs Enforcement only released this statments:
"Today's arrests and detentions are part of an ongoing Immigration and Customs Enforcement worksite enforcement investigation. Because the enforcement actions are ongoing, we are unable to provide further details at this time."
The local division buys and sells pallets, but the company as a whole does business worldwide and is considered a market leader
And a raid bump.
