Feds capture anti-ICE protester in Portland after pulling her across 'Do Not Block' line
Almost a dozen law enforcement officials swarmed the protestors after pulling her over the "Do Not Block" line. The entire incident was recorded on video
A protester was arrested at Saturday's protest outside the ICE facility in Portland after the demonstrator was allegedly pulled across the blue "Do Not Block" line.
Almost a dozen law enforcement officials swarmed the protestors afterwards. The incident was recorded on video.
The clip, just over a minute long, shows officers talking to a woman who is then pulled across a blue line painted on the property.
In a statement to Fox News Digital, the Portland Police Bureau confirmed two arrests connected to Saturday's protests.
"PPB has arrested two people for crimes committed today. I do not have names or charges yet. The officers haven’t even transported them back to the precinct yet, so it will be a while," the spokesperson said. "As we have every night for many weeks, PPB continues to monitor the area for criminal behavior." It comes after a man died during a disastrous chase from ICE amid mounting scandals.

According to protest organizers, the protest outside the ICE facility in Portland was held to “demand the revoking of ICE’s permit to operate out of the facility” in the largely residential neighborhood.
Protests outside the ICE facility in Portland have become a near-nightly occurrence in recent weeks as activists oppose detentions and deportations.
The facility has also become a focal point of months of protests against the Trump administration’s immigration policies.
Last month, President Donald Trump announced plans to deploy the Oregon National Guard in Portland to defend the ICE facility from protesters.
“We have no choice, we have no fear,” chanted protesters huddling under pop-up tents and umbrellas. “ICE is not welcome here.”
