At least 54 people were arrested during protests against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) outside the Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building in Minneapolis. The Hennepin County Sheriff’s Office reported that 38 individuals were cited and released, while one person was booked into jail, with an additional 15 arrests confirmed by the Minnesota State Patrol. Demonstrators allegedly blocked roads and assaulted law enforcement, prompting officials to issue dispersal orders. The protest was part of a weeklong campaign advocating for the abolition of ICE and the Department of Homeland Security amid ongoing national anti-ICE demonstrations.
