ICE Raid Near Fort Benning

Mary Lou Pickel reports in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution:

The site of a new Army infantry museum near Fort Benning became the scene of an immigration raid when federal agents arrested 30 workers earlier this week.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested 27 Mexicans and three Guatemalans on charges of immigration violations, and they will be processed for deportation, ICE spokesman Richard Rocha said.
Agents entered the work site of the new National Infantry Museum and Soldier Center at Patriot Park in Columbus on Tuesday morning and checked the IDs of all workers, Rocha said. Those considered to be illegally in the country were transported to the ICE detention center in Stewart County, he said. Click herefor the full story.
