US Immigration officials arrest 62 at pork plant

CHICAGO (Reuters) - Federal immigration agents arrested 62 sanitation workers during a Wednesday morning raid at Cargill Inc.'s pork plant in Beardstown, Illinois, some on identity theft charges and others for being illegal immigrants, immigration officials said.

The arrests disrupted meat production at the plant for about three hours, but no Cargill employees were arrested, immigration and company officials said.

The raid was smaller in scope than one four months ago that temporarily shut down six Swift & Co. meat plants and prompted calls from the meat industry for changes in federal immigration laws to make it easier to hire immigrant workers....

We can only hope that the Cargill (Excel) plant here is on somebody's list of plants to hit for illegal immigrant arrests.
