ICE Detains 7 At Long Beach Car Wash; Woman Collapses In Custody As LA Sweeps Ramp Up After SCOTUS Ruling

Seven workers were detained during a Sept. 13 ICE raid at a Long Beach car wash, where one woman appeared to faint while being escorted to an unmarked vehicle. Witness videos show masked agents in tactical vests arriving in SUVs and blocking exits as some employees fled. The incident follows a Supreme Court ruling that temporarily cleared the way for broader immigration stops in Los Angeles County, amid reports that recent sweeps have also detained U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents. ICE said it conducts routine operations; further details on the detainees’ status and medical care were not provided.
