Immigration officials arrest more than 80 in Willmar, activists say

Federal immigration officials have arrested between 80 to 100 Latino community members in Wilmar since an investigation there began Tuesday, immigrant activists said today.
The Minnesota Immigrant Freedom Network said in an e-mail to members of the media that three Immigration and Customs Enforcement buses are roaming the city, and that community members report ICE officials entering homes without warrants for detention or search.
But according to an ICE spokesman, agents are in the area looking for specific people with criminal backgrounds, the West Central Tribune reported today.
The newspaper also quoted a Willmar resident who said federal agents were asking Hispanics for their IDs outside the local Wal-Mart Thursday.
