ICE arrests 58 in "raids" of Ohio Mexican restaurant chain

Dang, breaks my heart. The cost of burritos will probably go up.

Adios

CINCINNATI (Reuters) - U.S. immigration agents raided eight Mexican restaurants in northern Ohio on Wednesday and arrested 58 employees as part of a criminal operation against illegal immigrants, federal authorities said.

All those arrested were citizens of Mexico and working at Casa Fiesta, a chain of Mexican restaurants in Ashland, Fremont, Norwalk, Oberlin, Oregon, Sandusky, Vermillion and Youngstown, Ohio, Immigration and Customs Enforcement said in a statement.

It said the raid was the culmination of more than a yearlong investigation.

Of the 58 arrested, 54 were men. Three of the four women were released on their own recognizance on humanitarian grounds, ICE said. They are still required to appear before a federal immigration judge who will determine whether they have a legal right to remain in the United States.

  2. I think it is a concentration thing, Ms. Estelle....They catch and deport all kinds of nationalities, it's just that the proximity of the two countries, next to each other, makes for more of one ethnicity, or country of origin than others, hence more of them get caught....yet there is suppose to be what close to 14 million illegals that are still loose in the U.S....and most of them are of hispanic origin...it's not racism it's just the facts...and your right about the higher concentration of mid east originated people being "Unfreindly", if they are here as illegal aliens.......but I could be wrong....riff
