Special to El Rrun-Rrun
Numerous sources have reached out to this blog to say that the recent raids by Immigration and Customs Enforcement on local restaurants, taco eateries and some clubs have forced the owners to close pending the hiring of help who can show they are in this country legally.
The most prominent among these was Los Camperos, where the owners placed a banner across the driveway saying the restaurant had been closed for "remodeling."
However, eyewitnesses say that the restaurant was raided by ICE, local police and other law enforcement agencies who arrested workers with questionable documentation. El Pueblito, which reportedly was allowed to remain open pending the production of workers' eligibility. Other businesses said to have been affected by the ICE enforcement actions allegedly included Fina's Restaurant, Ultimo Taco, and Dirty Al's.
Attempts to contact someone at Los Camperos for confirmation were unsuccessful.
