ICE agents arrest workers from Meta’s Hyperion data center site

Yesterday, US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers stopped and arrested two workers from Meta’s massive Hyperion data center construction site in Richland Parish, Louisiana.

According to the Richland Parish Sheriff’s Office, two dump truck drivers were stopped and arrested as part of a traffic stop as they headed to the construction site where thousands of people are working.

Bloomberg reports that unmarked vehicles at the perimeter of the construction site were stopping and checking the identification of workers. The Sheriff’s Office said ICE agents did not enter the Meta site at any time.
