Скачать или смотреть At least 4 arrested by federal officers outside Portland's ICE facility as tensions flare

Tensions rose outside the ICE facility in South Portland on Tuesday night, as federal officers fired pepper balls from the building’s roof, patrolled the street outside and arrested at least four people.
Federal officers carried the four people into the ICE facility. At least one of them had already been released. It was not immediately clear what charges, if any, they faced.
A request for comment from ICE was not returned on Tuesday.
The increase in the show of force by the federal government on Tuesday night came after President Donald Trump on Sunday authorized the callup of 200 members of the Oregon National Guard to defend federal buildings in the city, including the ICE facility, and, earlier Tuesday, calling the city a "war zone."
