Multiple people were detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in downtown San Francisco on Tuesday morning, merely 12 hours after thousands of protesters took to the streets in the Mission to rally against the widespread raids taking place across California.
The news, first reported by the NBC Bay Area, unfolded around 9:30 a.m. outside of the San Francisco Immigration Court at 100 Montgomery St. The reporter captured footage of ICE agents wearing masks escorting a person into a parked car. About an hour later, two other people were reportedly taken into unmarked cars. One told the NBC reporter that he was from Guatemala.

The public uprising continued into Monday night, when an estimated 9,000 protesters rallied at San Francisco’s 24th and Mission BART Plaza late into the frigid June night.

San Francisco Immigration Court canceled the rest of its hearings on Tuesday afternoon and closed the courthouse because of the protests, NBC Bay Area reported.
