Federal immigration officials reported that some migrants detained in the Los Angeles vicinity last week had prior criminal records, including charges of assault and drug-related offenses.

On Friday alone, Immigration and Customs Enforcement detained nearly 45 individuals as they conducted operations in various places, such as two Home Depot locations, a fashion district store, and a doughnut shop. These actions spurred protests that lasted into the weekend, opposing the immigration enforcement activities where officers targeted workplaces to detain workers. Throughout the week, the number of migrants arrested in the city exceeded 100.

One individual has already been deported to Mexico after being apprehended at a Home Depot on Friday morning. During the protests, David Huerta, the president of SEIU California, a labor union, was detained and charged with obstructing a federal officer while demonstrating.

At the warehouse in the fashion district, agents executed a search warrant on Friday after a judge found there was probable cause that the employer was using fictitious documents for some of its workers, U.S. Attorney’s Office spokesperson Ciaran McEvoy told The Associated Press.
