Protesters clash with ICE agents in S.F., trying to block immigration arrests
Briefly

On Tuesday afternoon, a group of approximately 30 protesters gathered outside the ICE office in San Francisco to oppose the transfer of at least two detained immigrants from Concord. Tensions rose as protesters surrounded an unmarked van reportedly loaded with detained immigrants, leading to confrontations with federal agents. Protesters shouted chants against ICE, while attempts to block the vehicles resulted in physical scuffles, with some protesters claiming to have been struck by police batons. The protest highlighted growing frustrations over immigrant detentions and ICE's operations in the city.
Protesters amassed around the northern gate of the ICE headquarters as an escorted, unmarked van reversed through the building's rising garage door, allegedly loading arrested immigrants.
As ICE agents began to clear a path through the gathered crowd, tensions escalated, with protesters throwing cones and attempting to block the vehicles from leaving.
At least one protester reported being struck on the head with a police baton as federal officers pushed back the crowd, attempting to regain control.
Protesters shouted chants such as 'Fuck you Nazis!' and 'Get out of our fucking city!' in a display of anger against ICE's actions.
