Labor officials blast tactic used in arrests at air base - AP, Myrtle Beach Sun News, SC
Allen McNeely, head of the state Labor Department's Occupational Safety and Health division, said the workers were lured into the arrest by a flier announcing a mandatory Occupational Safety and Health Administration meeting.
McNeely said one of the contractors who employed the immigrants faxed him a copy of the flier, which told all contract workers to attend an OSHA briefing at the base theater and promised free coffee and doughnuts.
