Former CNN anchor Don Lemon has been arrested following a demonstration in St. Paul, Minnesota, protesting an immigration crackdown supported by the Trump administration. Lemon, who livestreamed the event, argued he was acting as a journalist and was unaware of plans to disrupt a church service. His lawyer labeled the arrest an “unprecedented attack on the First Amendment.” The specific charges against Lemon remain unclear after a magistrate judge previously rejected prosecutors’ initial attempt to charge him.
