Dozens Arrested at NYC Hilton as Hotel-Targeted Anti-ICE Protests Spread From Minnesota

Secrecy over where federal officers are lodged is fueling confrontations at hotels.

Overview

  • New York police detained dozens after protesters occupied the Tribeca Hilton Garden Inn lobby, with arrests following repeated orders to leave.
  • Authorities have not confirmed whether immigration officers were staying at the Manhattan hotel, and DHS said it would not disclose such information.
  • In Minnesota, Maple Grove police declared an unlawful assembly outside a SpringHill Suites and told CNN about 26 arrests after a dispersal order.
  • Maple Grove officers cited property damage and objects thrown at police, and used pepper balls and other crowd-control tools, with some outlets reporting tear gas.
  • Video from the Maple Grove hotel showed a man exposing himself from a window; police said they are reviewing third-party footage and have not identified him or any agency affiliation.
