“ICE arrests U.S. citizen and 24 illegal aliens employed by a private contractor to work at Little Rock National Airport
ICE’s critical infrastructure protection mission makes a priority of airports”
PRESS RELEASE SNIPPET: “LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - Special agents with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) today arrested one U.S. citizen and 24 illegal aliens, employed by Naylor Concrete of Oklahoma City, performing contract work at the Little Rock National Airport.
Chance Coran, 25, a U.S. citizen, was arrested at the worksite, where he was the supervisor of a concrete crew working on airport property. Coran was arrested on an outstanding warrant for driving while intoxicated. ICE agents encountered the illegal alien workers while attempting to identify subjects working at the construction site.
The company that hired the workers was identified as Naylor Concrete, a sub-contractor working on the constructions site.
Twenty-three of the illegal aliens arrested were identified as male Mexican nationals. One of the illegal aliens was identified as being from Peru. All have been placed in removal proceedings for being in violation of U.S. immigration laws. Their immigration status makes it illegal for them to work in the United States. This law enforcement action was part of ICE’s ongoing efforts to target illegal workers with access to critical infrastructure worksites around the country, such as U.S. military installations, nuclear plants, airports and seaports.
At this time, none of those arrested have been identified as having worked at the Little Rock National Airport in the past.”
