KSAT12: “A protest against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) deportations took place in downtown San Antonio on Sunday.
The event, called “No To Mass Deportations – ICE Out Of San Antonio,” began at 11 a.m. on Sunday at San Antonio City Hall, 100 Military Plaza.
For more than a week, ICE officers have been detaining immigrants after they leave their scheduled court hearings, including a mother and child immediately after an immigration hearing.
ICE agents in San Antonio also recently detained construction workers on a university campus.
“I honestly thought nobody was going to show up because nobody ever shows up for my people, but once I saw the people walking up here and as I got closer, I got emotional, tears started running down my face,” said Kelsey, a mother and protestor.”
