Digest more
The FBI has issued a reward for information about a person who appeared to open fire at an immigration enforcement operation in rural Ventura County. The federal operation at Glass House Farms near Camarillo drew dozens of protesters who clashed with federal agents on a road surrounded by farm fields and greenhouses northwest of Los Angeles.
The Sergeant, along with other Camarillo deputies and officers from the Highway Patrol, approached the vehicle and found the driver (an 18-year-old male) unresponsive and unconscious. There were no other occupants in the vehicle.
According to reporting on the ground, the company’s facilities in Camarillo (Ventura County) and Carpinteria (Santa Barbara County) are the scenes of large-scale ICE raids. Protesters have gathered at both locations, with reports of federal agents using tear gas or pepper spray to push the crowds back.
