MINNEAPOLIS — Protesters staged a noise demonstration at the Graduate Hotel against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for the second time in a week, leading to several arrests.
A crowd of dozens banged pots and buckets, played a siren, blew whistles, and chanted “fuck ICE” through a megaphone outside the building where they believed federal agents were sleeping, Daily Caller News Foundation footage shows. The University of Minnesota (UMN) Police Department eventually warned protesters via a loudspeaker that they were violating a noise ordinance, declared an unlawful assembly and ordered them to leave the property, but many stayed anyway.
Police arrested 67 people on an unlawful assembly charge, UMN told the DCNF. The Minneapolis Police Department (MPD) and Minnesota State Patrol deferred to UMN.
