TX Trailer-Manufacturer Swarmed by 300 Fed Agents — 160 Illegal Aliens Detained!

More than 300 federal agents descended on a North Texas trailer-manufacturer on Tuesday that is accused of knowingly hiring 160 undocumented workers.

Agents from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) made the surprise execution of a criminal search warrant just before lunch at Load Trail which is located between Bonham and Paris – about two hours northeast of Dallas.

“I know I just heard helicopters everywhere and I saw a whole lot of people running and so I turned to run and the first corner I hit I got guns drawn down on me,” said Shawn Patterson, employee.

Agents detained 160 undocumented workers as part of their investigation but did not make any criminal arrests, according to Katrina Berger, Homeland Security Special-Agent-in-Charge of Investigations.
