Last week, federal law enforcement conducted operations at two restaurants in Charles Town, resulting in multiple detentions. While rumors suggested it was an ICE raid, officials from the U.S. Marshals Service clarified that the actions were not initiated by ICE but were part of an effort to locate a fugitive immigrant believed to be in the area. This incident has sparked local concern regarding immigration enforcement in the community, which is known for its vibrant dining scene and as a gathering place for residents.
