Federal agents returned to the area of the Geisinger Medical Center construction project on September 8, following earlier September 2 arrests connected to the same project, with advocates reporting eight more people detained in the second operation. Workers told advocates that agents used drones, monitored vehicles and worked with local police during the arrests, with one worker describing it as feeling like a "manhunt" that has left coworkers afraid to return to work. Advocacy groups have said more than 40 workers were detained across both operations, but an ICE spokesperson said the agency arrested 10 people in Danville, stating they face felony charges for illegal reentry after prior removal and did not cite any record of violent crime.
