Dodgers Say They Blocked Federal Agents From Entering Stadium Grounds
HuffPost
The team said agents requested access to Dodger Stadium's parking lots but were denied.
The Los Angeles Dodgers said Thursday that federal immigration agents attempted to gain access to stadium grounds, but were denied entry by the Dodgers organization.
The Major League Baseball team posted about the incident after masked agents were seen staging Department of Homeland security vehicles outside the stadium in Los Angeles’ Elysian Park neighborhood.
“This morning, ICE agents came to Dodger Stadium and requested permission to access the parking lots,” the team posted on X. “They were denied entry to the grounds by the organization. Tonight’s game will be played as scheduled.”
Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement to HuffPost that the agents present at the stadium were with Customs and Border Patrol.
“This had nothing to do with the Dodgers,” she said. “CBP vehicles were in the stadium parking lot very briefly, unrelated to any operation or enforcement.”
