The Department of Homeland Security poured cold water on the Los Angeles Dodgers’ claim that there was an attempted Immigration and Customs Enforcement raid at their stadium on Thursday.
The reigning World Series champs’ official X account claimed that ICE agents had requested access to the Dodger Stadium parking lot Thursday morning, with the team touting that it had denied the agents entry — as Los Angeles remains ground zero of resistance against the Trump administration’s immigration raids.

Rioters and protesters have been clashing with police over immigration enforcement in Los Angeles in recent weeks. ZUMAPRESS.com / MEGADHS officials, however, said that the team’s grandstanding was irrelevant because there was never an operation in the works at the stadium.
“This had nothing to do with the Dodgers,” the agency wrote on X. “CBP vehicles were in the stadium parking lot very briefly, unrelated to any operation or enforcement.”
