Diaz said she <br /> has seen about a 90% drop in business because of fear in her community caused by ongoing <br /> immigration raids throughout Orange County and the military presence directly in front of her <br /> restaurant since Monday night. <br /> Tuesday morning, the calls started coming in. An event on the second floor and a large reservation, a <br /> table for a party of 25, were canceled. <br /> Diaz said Santa Ana is a city with a large immigrant population, and all of the disturbances created by <br /> the presence of ICE and the raids have left the entire community shaken."
