Protesters opposed to ICE
in Los Angeles County jails arrested.
Three
people were arrested in Duarte on Wednesday after blocking an intersection in a
protest over local police agencies' collaboration with federal immigration
officials.
The arrests were made after a heated a community meeting held by
the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department about a new Immigration and Customs
Enforcement program in local jails.
The
Sheriff's Department has been seeking public input about how it should
cooperate with ICE's new Priority Enforcement Program, which asks jails to
notify federal agents when inmates that it believes are in the county illegally
are being released.
The issue has gained national attention in recent weeks after
the July 1 shooting death of a woman in San Francisco, allegedly by an
immigrant in the country illegally.
