United States immigration authorities have arrested 475 people in a raid on a Hyundai manufacturing site in Georgia, Steve Schrank, a special agent in charge of Homeland Securities Investigations Atlanta, said at a press conference on Friday.
The Hyundai facility, located in Ellabell, Georgia – approximately 30 miles west of Savannah – was raided “as part of an ongoing criminal investigation into allegations of unlawful employment practices and other serious federal crimes,” according to a statement from the Department of Homeland Security.
Supposedly a few executives from Korea were arrested in the raid. Although I’d guess its not for illegal hiring specifically and only because they are not Americans so got treated like the workers by ICE.
