CANYON COUNTY, Idaho — Federal immigration officials say 105 people were arrested over the weekend during an operation at La Cathedral Arena in Wilder.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said in a statement to Idaho News 6 that its officers “dismantled an illegal horse-racing, animal fighting, and gambling enterprise” at the property. The arrests were part of a coordinated law enforcement effort involving multiple agencies.

“Under President Trump and Secretary Noem, we are dismantling criminal networks in the United States,” the agency said.
