Anti-ICE Protestors Arrested by the Dozens After Taking Over New York City Hotel Lobby
Police on Tuesday arrested dozens of anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) protestors after the protest took over a New York City hotel lobby and obstructed pedestrian traffic.
The New York City Police Department responded to protestors entering the Hilton Garden Inn on Sixth Avenue in the Tribeca neighborhood in Lower Manhattan, New York City.
Sunrise Movement, an activist leftist group, claimed that the hotel housed ICE officials.
The Sunrise Movement wrote, “BREAKING: 65+ New Yorkers have been arrested for occupying the lobby of a Hilton in NYC that’s housing ICE. Everyday people have the power to shut down ICE’s ability to operate. We are making it impossible for ICE to get a moment’s rest.”
