I suppose the good news is they weren't terrorists.
September 15, Immigration and Customs Enforcement — Immigration agents arrest illegal aliens at nuclear plant. In the latest in a series of arrests involving illegal aliens at nuclear facilities, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) special agents arrested three illegal aliens in Blair, NE, on Tuesday, September 13, when they attempted to enter the outer
secure area of the Omaha Public Power District’s Fort Calhoun Nuclear Station to perform contract work at the plant for the first time. The three men, all citizens of Mexico, had been hired by an independent contractor to perform maintenance work at the nuclear facility. As they attempted to enter a secure area of the plant, the men presented identification documents that
raised the suspicions of Omaha Public Power District employees. They contacted ICE special agents for assistance, who responded and arrested the men after determining that they were illegally present in the United States. All three men have been placed in immigration removal
proceedings. ICE agents are investigating the circumstances under which the private contractor hired the illegal aliens. ICE agents have determined that the illegal aliens were not engaged in any terrorist activity. The enforcement action is the latest in a series of ICE arrests involving illegal aliens performing contract work at nuclear plants and other nuclear−related facilities
around the country.
