U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials arrested more than five dozen illegal aliens at a meat production plant in Omaha, Nebraska, on Tuesday.
In a press release on Wednesday, ICE revealed that as ICE agents and “their federal partners” were conducting a worksite enforcement operation at Glenn Valley Foods, “an illegal alien from Honduras brandished a weapon and assaulted federal agents and officers.”
During the worksite enforcement operation, “more than 70 illegal aliens were detained,” according to the press release.
“Yesterday, an illegal alien from Honduras brandished a weapon and assaulted federal agents and officers who were doing their job: protecting American citizens, the public and businesses who are being victimized through identity fraud,” ICE acting Director Todd Lyons said in a statement.
