Guatemalan legal resident briefly detained, partner taken away in ICE raid at nutrition bar factory
Sep 4, 2025 · Cato, NY, Guatemala
A 24-year-old Guatemalan man who had become a legal U.S. resident two years earlier was briefly detained, photographed, and released after about 11 hours during an ICE raid at Nutrition Bar Confectioners in Cato, New York. His partner, who lacked legal immigration status, was taken away by agents before he could speak to her, and he did not know where she had been detained. The worker, who has been supporting his parents and siblings in Guatemala, said he planned to return to work despite the disruption.
