On Monday afternoon, law enforcement in New York City apprehended 24 individuals protesting against ICE. They were taken into custody after declining to vacate Trump Tower in Manhattan during their demonstration.
The demonstrators chanted “Bring Them Back,” while they occupied the lobby of the building. They also read the names of the illegal immigrants who were deported to the CECOT maximum security prison in El Salvador.
Video shot by Fox News showed dozens of NYPD officers entering Trump Tower armed with plastic ties hanging from their belts.

Images and videos of the protests on Sunday showed protesters blowing up vehicles, throwing rocks at law enforcement officials and taking over a highway.
