DC demonstrators protest ICE, National Guard presence

WASHINGTON (DC News Now) — Tensions ran high Saturday across the District as crowds gathered to protest the federal law enforcement agencies patrolling D.C.

Protestors confronted three reported ICE agents after a visit to a restaurant in the Mount Pleasant neighborhood; however, it did not appear as if the agents had anyone in custody.

The showdown came hours after protestors made their way to the White House, where hundreds marched from Dupont Circle, rallying cries such as “Trump must go now” through the streets.

“We need to have our independence, and this is not that,” said Lizzie Logan, one of the demonstrators.
