On Saturday, anti-ICE protesters gathered at Federal Plaza in Lower Manhattan, clashing with NYPD officers during demonstrations against increased immigration arrests by ICE. Tensions escalated as officers arrested several protesters, leading to confrontations where chants of "let them go" echoed. Activists attempted to block an ICE van, hoping to protect potential detainees, though their efforts were largely symbolic. The protests reflect growing concern over ICE's arrest practices, especially under the Trump administration, which has seen over 100,000 arrests made by the agency.
Several people were taken into custody Saturday as protesters and New York City Police officers clashed outside Federal Plaza in Lower Manhattan.
At least one person was placed in ambulance as tensions rose between activists trying to block ICE from detaining immigrants and police enforcing the law.
