ASHEVILLE — Western North Carolina wasn't the only part of the state hit by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids last week.
ICE arrested at least 40 people statewide, an official with the federal agency said Monday.
The most recent raids took place over the weekend in Western North Carolina, where about 15 people were arrested in Buncombe and Henderson counties, ICE spokesman Bryan Cox told the Citizen Times. He was unsure of the exact number of people arrested.
