After a workplace ICE raid that resulted in the arrests of about 70 alleged illegal aliens at a meatpacking plant in Omaha, several protesters threw rocks and jumped on federal vehicles carrying out the operation.

The AP reported that federal immigration authorities made the arrests at Glenn Valley Foods Tuesday morning.

Fox News Digital reached out to ICE to confirm the raid but did not immediately hear back.

ICE officials told the AP the raid was “based on an ongoing criminal investigation into the large-scale employment of aliens without authorization to work in the United States” and that it was likely the largest “worksite enforcement operation” in Nebraska since President Donald Trump took office.

PRESIDENT TRUMP CALLS FOR JAIL TIME FOR LA FLAG BURNERS, SLAMS RIOTERS CARRYING OTHER COUNTRIES’ FLAGS

The Flatwater Free Press reported that the situation grew tense after protesters began gathering as a caravan of federal vehicles was leaving the plant. The outlet reported that several protesters jumped on moving law enforcement vehicles and “threw rocks and debris at the cars, shattering one window.”

Video posted by the outlet shows what appears to be a line of federal vehicles surrounded by protesters on either side throwing objects, kicking the cars and yelling profanity and slogans like “f— you, pig.”

At one point during the video, a window can be heard smashing. In another video posted by the outlet, two protesters jumped on the hood of a vehicle as it attempts to travel off.

Violence erupted in Omaha with Los Angeles still battling violent anti-ICE riots and the rest of the country facing widespread protests against the Trump administration ramping up of ICE arrests and deportations.

‘VERY BIG FORCE’ WILL ADDRESS PROTESTORS AT SATURDAY’S MILITARY PARADE, TRUMP SAYS

Protests over the raids in Los Angeles devolved into violence over the weekend as rioters targeted federal law enforcement officials by throwing rocks, and videos showed people looting stores, setting cars on fire and taking over a freeway. 

Trump announced Saturday he was deploying 2,000 National Guard members to help quell the violence, bypassing the governor, who typically activates the National Guard. The administration has also deployed several hundred active-duty Marines to respond to the riots.

The move prompted Newsom to file a lawsuit against the Trump administration over efforts to allegedly “federalize the California National Guard,” while Democrats across the nation have attempted to pin blame for the violence on Trump’s activation of the National Guard while characterizing the anti-ICE riots as “peaceful” demonstrations. 

IMMIGRATION AUTHORITIES HIGHLIGHT CRIMINAL HISTORY OF MULTIPLE MIGRANTS ARRESTED IN LOS ANGELES

Speaking with reporters in the Oval Office Tuesday, Trump said Americans can expect additional immigration raids across the country similar to those in California, warning that any potential riots that break out in response to the raids will be met with “equal or greater force” compared to the government’s handling of recent Los Angeles violence.
