Authorities broke up a cockfighting ring in northeast Alabama in Blount County this past weekend.
Homeland Security made 60 arrests – only five were U.S. citizens.
Authorities say they seized more than $100,000 in cash and two firearms at the site, which is about one hour south of Huntsville, Alabama.
Several agencies executed search warrants related to the prohibition of animal fighting ventures, presence of illegal immigrants, and the prohibition of illegal gambling.
Four of the illegal immigrants are charged with illegal reentry after they were deported.
