FAIRFIELD, Ohio — More than 30 people were arrested last weekend after what Fairfield police are calling "an operation" at a Purevian restaurant and nightclub on Route 4.

Fairfield police said their investigations into two shootings directly linked to Sabor Peruano revealed multiple people involved were in the country illegally. On Saturday, Aug. 16, police said officers worked with the Butler County Sheriff's Department and Immigration and Customs and Enforcement (ICE) officers to conduct an operation "in and around" the restaurant.

In total, 34 people were arrested and taken to the Butler County Jail. Police did not say whether those arrested were in the country illegally or if they face other charges.
