Multiple ICE Raids Target Workers Across Los Angeles County

Immigration raids led by ICE continue to disrupt Southern California, with recent actions targeting Home Depot stores in Hollywood and San Fernando, a car wash in Glendale, and a federal presence near Dodger Stadium that sparked protests. These operations follow raids in Pasadena and Pico Rivera earlier in the week, where at least six day laborers were detained while traveling to jobs, drawing sharp criticism from Rep. Judy Chu, who has called for accountability and transparency and was denied access to detention centers holding detainees. The Dodgers, facing criticism for perceived silence amid the raids, were expected to announce efforts to support the immigrant community. ICE and Customs and Border Protection vehicles were briefly reported near Dodger Stadium, but ICE denied presence on the stadium grounds, while protests against the raids continued peacefully. The enforcement actions occur amid directives from President Donald Trump to intensify immigration efforts and deployment of additional National Guard troops to the area. Community organizations and local leaders have condemned the raids for aggressive tactics, including reports of agents failing to show warrants and targeting workers at workplaces and public places, fueling widespread protests across Los Angeles and Orange counties.
