A woman protesting an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agreement with Miami-Dade County was arrested and is currently held at Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center on charges of battery and aggravated assault against a law enforcement officer, as well as resisting an officer with violence.

The arrest came during a chaotic Miami-Dade County Commission meeting Thursday, where men in khaki and gray suits forcibly removed 36-year-old Camila Ramos from the chambers.

Video footage shows her near the floor as men in suits force her to the ground and drag her from the meeting while Ramos repeatedly asks them to stop.

"I deserve to know the process! I just asked what the process was," the woman in the video proclaims. "What's your name?" a male voice asks in response, as she continually pleads, "Let go of me!" ...
