Workers detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents during a raid at an Omaha meatpacking plant on Tuesday have been transferred from an Omaha-based processing center to a detention facility elsewhere in Nebraska, according to the Center for Immigrant and Refugee Advancement and a staff member from U.S. Rep. Don Bacon’s office.

“We now know that 63 of those in custody have been transferred from the DHS processing center to a detention center in Nebraska. The other 11 people detained on Tuesday have either been deported or sent to other locations for processing,” a statement from CIRA said. Of the remaining 11, U.S. Marshals held some as part of a broader federal criminal investigation, some were deported under existing deportation orders, others were released, according to James Wright, a deputy chief of staff in Bacon’s office.
