Several protesters were arrested while trying to block U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers at a facility on Canal Street in New York City on Saturday.

“Following social media posts calling agitators to ICE’s location in New York City, individuals dressed in black clothing with backpacks, face masks, and goggles showed up and began to obstruct federal law enforcement officers including by blocking the parking garage.” a Department of Homeland Security spokesperson said in a statement.
