"A decades-old market that caters largely to a Latino clientele, offering art, clothing, household goods and a food court serving drinks, beer, ice cream, menudo, burgers, tacos and wings. On June 14, 2025 federal agents entered the site around 3:30 p.m., just before a scheduled Father’s Day concert; roughly 50–80 officers in tactical gear with helicopters overhead searched the swap meet, detained dozens and arrested several people. Witnesses reported agents walking through crowds asking questions, and local outlets estimated 40–50 people were detained amid a wider series of ICE sweeps in the region." - Mona Holmes
