Bay County Sheriff's officials say they've rounded up 10-more illegal aliens working at a local construction site.

But the site itself is what's interesting. Investigators say they found the 10-illegals working on the new Bay County Public Library.


5-of the workers were reportedly employed by Harvell Plastering Company out of Navarre, and 5-were working for Astro Interiors Construction out of Mabelton, Georgia.

5-were from Mexico, 3-from Honduras and 2-from Bolivia. All 10-are charged with criminal use of personal identification information or stealing Social Security numbers.

There’s no word yet if the companies employing the illegals are facing any charges.

This is the third time illegals have been caught working on Bay County projects. Earlier this year, sheriff's officials arrested illegals at construction projects at the Bay County Courthouse and the water treatment facility on Transmitter Road.
