Illegal Immigrants Arrested

Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agents raided a Buncombe County business this morning and arrested dozens of suspected illegal aliens.

Agents arrived at Mills Manufacturing Corporation in Woodfin, and arrested 57 of the plant's 175 workers. The remaining workers were sent home, and the plant is closed for the day.

The arrested workers were taken to the Henderson County detention center, where ICE agents will try to determine their status, and if they are in the country illegally.

Now we're talkin.

Pick up the business owners too...... They're aiding and abetting (spelling)

Although not a popular stand on my part,I agree with arresting and deporting back any illegals in this country. I wished it was done more often. I guess this makes me a bigot and not an american in most eyes.

pike does this upset you lol

Some white teenaged girls in Woodfin can shop in peace now.

Excellent! Hope the business is fined for hiring illegals, all illegals are deported and kept from coming back.

Maybe we can move some of our military to protect our borders.

If they're illegal, send them and their childen back to where they came from.

Business owners were working with ICE on this case. Good job - looks like E-verify is working.

Nice to know that the company manufactures parachutes for the Army.

Illegals working for sub-minimum wages are why the average American paycheck is stagnant. Round 'em up, send them back home. Let them stand in line there and re-enter Legally. And in controlled numbers like it's supposed to be. Why others elsewhere that do things Legally be kept out and these Illegals keep flooding in, thumbing their noses at our laws? Round 'em up, Send Them Home.
