Rescue teams conduct search at Camarillo cannabis farm after immigration raid
Workers at the Glass House Farms cannabis farm in Camarillo reported unaccounted colleagues who may still be at the property and in need of help.

The Ventura County Fire Department (VCFD) said it received a call at about 4:30 p.m. Friday from employees at the Glass House Farms cannabis farm about missing colleagues. The call came after roughly 200 people were arrested on Thursday in immigration operations in Ventura and Santa Barbara counties.

The Department of Homeland Security said agents were deployed to Glass House Farms properties in Camarillo and Carpinteria on Thursday. The operation resulted in an hours-long protest in Amarillo, where a clash between agents and demonstrators occurred.
