Bear Gulch immigration raid

[u/mittenborn]

Hey r/Wildfire — I'm a Seattle-based reporter working on a story about the immigration raid at the Bear Gulch Fire. Hoping to get more info from anyone who's been out there or has an account of what happened. Also looking for insight about the larger implications of immigration enforcement at active wildfires. I can talk off the record or on background with anyone who's willing to share. Please PM me if you'd like to connect. Thanks!

Are they arresting hand crews?

They took contractors working and incident into custody, allegedly for being undocumented or in violation of immigration status.
