Farmworker Dies Following Violent California Cannabis Farm Immigration Raid

A farmworker has tragically died from injuries sustained during a chaotic immigration raid at two California cannabis farm sites earlier this week. Jaime Alanis’s death on Friday, confirmed by the United Farm Workers advocacy group, follows a tense standoff where US immigration authorities arrested 200 workers on Thursday, July 10, 2025.

The Department of Homeland Security executed criminal search warrants in Carpinteria and Camarillo, California, leading to the arrests of suspected undocumented immigrants. Officials confirmed at least 10 immigrant children were present on site. Four US citizens were also arrested for assaulting or resisting officers, and authorities are offering a $50,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of a suspect who reportedly fired at federal agents.

During the raid, crowds gathered outside Glass House Farms in Camarillo, protesting immigration enforcement and demanding information about their relatives. A chaotic scene unfolded as authorities in helmets faced off with demonstrators, with acrid smoke forcing community members to retreat. Families continue to wait for information regarding detained loved ones, with some still unaccounted for. The incident has heightened fears within immigrant communities across Southern California amidst increased federal enforcement actions.
