Masked Anti-ICE Thugs Assault Reporter At Illegal Minneapolis Roadblock

MINNEAPOLIS — Anti-deportation activists assaulted 🏢Daily Caller News Foundation reporter Jorge Ventura and appeared to try stealing from him Monday while forming a road blockade to keep federal agents out of a neighborhood.

A band of masked individuals used traffic cones, wooden materials, furniture and other objects to regulate traffic on 32nd and Cedar Ave., checking vehicles’ license plates with a database to see if they belonged to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Ventura’s footage shows. Two demonstrators demanded Ventura leave, swiped at his phone and pushed him into a vehicle for recording and asking questions.

One person in green headwear tried to take Ventura’s phone while he filmed on a sidewalk, then walked back toward him as another activist told him to leave the area. The person in green was later seen repeatedly shoving Ventura into a car.

“Get in the fucking car,” the person said while pushing Ventura. Another masked person swatted Ventura’s phone out of his hand while Ventura filmed through a car window.

Throughout Ventura’s time recording, activists were seen questioning or following suspected ICE drivers on foot near the blockade. Minnesota law
