EXCLUSIVE FROM FOX: A man accused of damaging a window at a federal courthouse in Minneapolis has been apprehended by federal authorities this week. This arrest follows an incident where the suspect reportedly attempted to infiltrate the courthouse during a protest on January 7.
The suspect has been identified by the FBI as Georgio James-Jones. According to FBI Director Kash Patel, James-Jones was involved in an effort to breach the premises, which led to his arrest. Patel emphasized the seriousness of such actions in a statement given to Fox News Digital.
“This week, in collaboration with our partners, the FBI arrested Georgio James-Jones, who is accused of smashing windows in an attempt to break into a federal courthouse in Minneapolis last week,” Patel remarked. “The FBI has consistently stated that if you attack law enforcement, obstruct their duties, or engage in violent and destructive conduct, we will track you down and ensure justice is served.”
James-Jones was part of a larger group of anti-ICE demonstrators who were observed banging on the doors of the Diana E. Murphy U.S. Courthouse in Minneapolis. His arrest took place on January 14, marking a significant step in addressing the unrest that took place.

The protest was part of a nationwide streak of unrest in the wake of the death of Renee Nicole Good, who was shot and killed by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer in Minneapolis last week.
Another protest in California on Tuesday saw agitators burning an American flag and shouting expletives through a megaphone.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said two officers were injured in a clash with the protesters. One of the demonstrators was also struck in the eye with a crowd-control munition, leaving the eye blind, according to his family.

City officials said residents have raised concerns about neighborhood access, with multiple 311 calls requesting barrier removal. While memorials created by community members will remain intact, the city said surrounding streets must stay clear to ensure emergency access.
