Immigration officials say they've arrested 18 people in a raid at concrete plant in Loveland.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said the 18 workers arrested Wednesday morning were in the country illegally. One was from El Salvador and the rest were from Mexico.

ICE spokesman Carl Rusnok said the 18 will be interviewed, fingerprinted and then held at the Park County jail. He said they'll either be returned to their home country or appear before an immigration judge who will determine their fate.

ICE said Colorado Precast Concrete Inc. cooperated as agents executed a search warrant at the plant. No criminal charges are expected against the company.

I agree with Angie C., companies that benefit from illegal immigration should pay for everything our government has to do in order to deport them- jail, attorney fees, food, transportation, all of it!

They need to put these illegals with the Asian gangsters that were arrested and send them back with no opportunity of returning.

Louis are you completely ignorant or just incredibly stupid? Immigration is totally taking a toll on this country and causing massive sufferage on many levels. It's fact not a matter of being rude. People say go to the U.S. it's the land of opportunity. Beginning to feel like the only ones benefitting are the illegals. The U.S. is losing itself. It isn't what it used to be. Look where generosity has gotten us! Some how we stay positive.

Nick - I totally agree! I refuse to believe that someone has lived here their entire lives and not picked up the English language. If someone does not speak English they may not be here legally! Ruby's Diner, Chipotle, Burger King, McDonald's, Carl's Jr., construction companies and the city would not even begin to touch the surface. They do however have a new unit to address the issues of the illegals we are housing at the county jail. I wish they would do more than just catch and release!

Immigration & Customs Enforcement does not discriminate, and therefore if any person gets caught offering refuge to 'illegal aliens' NOT IMMIGRANTS. They will be arrested for aiding and abetting illegal foreign nationals. Nobody must be exempt from investigation including government contractors, or any business that exploits cheap labor. Today! NOW! (ICE) is now being offered intelligence by the public-at-large. People are becoming 'informants' and using their inside knowledge to report suspicious activity regarding fraudulent Social Security Numbers and large numbers of individuals who cannot comprehend English was certain to draw attention. Amongst the illegal aliens who entered our nation came many hard-core criminals, child pedophiles, female attackers, murders, robbers and Social security theft that do not get wide press. Ice has a ICE Tipline: 1-866-DHS-2ICE for intelligence to locate illegal aliens, or predatory businesses that employ them. NUMBERSUSA

I'd like to see the company pay a hefty fine, that would go towards financing the ICE operation! Our tax dollars will pay for the jail cell, the food, the attorneys and for the deportation of the illegals but the company gets away scott free? That company is just going to turn around and hire 18 more illegals to fill the slots.
