HAPPENING NOW: Chinese Glass Manufacturer in Ohio Gets Raided By Homeland Security

The Department of Homeland Security has raided a Chinese glass manufacturing plant in Moraine, Ohio.

Homeland Security Investigations police raided the Fuyao Glass America plant on Friday afternoon after obtaining search warrants.

A statement from the DHS which explained the raid on the glass manufacturer read, “Homeland Security Investigations special agents, in collaboration with IRS Criminal Investigation and other law enforcement agencies, are conducting federal search warrants at Fuyao Glass America and 27 other locations in the Dayton area as part of an ongoing criminal investigation.”

“Special agents are on scene investigating allegations of financial crimes and labor exploitation. There is a large law enforcement presence in Dayton, Liberty Township, Miamisburg, Moraine and West Carrollton but there is no threat to public safety at this time,” the DHS added.

HSI, in collaboration with IRS Criminal Investigation and other law enforcement agencies, are currently conducting search warrants Fuyao Glass America and 27 other locations in Dayton, Liberty Township, Miamisburg, Moraine, and West Carrollton.

The search warrants are part of an “ongoing criminal investigation” looking into allegations of financial crimes and labor exploitation.
