A lawyer was tackled to the ground for trying to help an ICE detainee after local police created a “safe place” for protesters.
The incident occurred outside of the Santa Barbara County Probation Department when federal agents, identified as Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents by their vests, took a man into custody.
The Santa Barbara News-Press reported on the operation:
The Santa Barbara Police Department said in a news release that it was informed shortly before 11 a.m. Friday that ICE agents were in the 100 block of east Carrillo Street and community members were filming the activities.
During that time, one of the tires of an ICE agent’s vehicle was slashed, and federal agents took a suspect into custody, driving him and the disabled vehicle to the Santa Barbara Police Department, police said in a statement to the media.
Local authorities said they were not notified that federal officers were coming to the Police Department before they arrived.
