Iowa Rep. Dave Heaton heard a helicopter while sipping coffee at a local Mount Pleasant diner Wednesday morning, then learned immigration agents had surrounded a pre-stressed concrete plant outside of town.
Heaton, R-Mount Pleasant, said he followed law enforcement cars out to Midwest Precast Concrete, located just west of the center of this town of 8,500, where U.S. Homeland Security had arrested 32 men — of which 22 were from Guatemala, seven were from Mexico, two were from El Salvador and one was from Honduras — on immigration violations, an ICE official said.
