A protest against federal immigration enforcement in Minneapolis took an unusual and chaotic turn when demonstrators began throwing sex toys at ICE vehicles outside the Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building, according to The Guardian.
Police arrested several demonstrators on Saturday outside a federal building just south of Minneapolis, breaking up a protest marking the one-month anniversary of Renee Good’s death. While much of the rally remained focused on chants and speeches condemning federal enforcement, tensions escalated as some protesters hurled objects toward law enforcement vehicles — including sex toys, bottles, and other debris.
Videos circulating online show the bizarre scene unfolding as federal vehicles attempted to move through the area. Authorities eventually declared the gathering an unlawful assembly after reporting that objects were being thrown at officers.
Police moved in to disperse the crowd, leading to dozens of arrests. Officials say they are reviewing footage and determining potential charges.
The protest is part of ongoing demonstrations in Minneapolis tied to increased immigration enforcement efforts. Supporters of the protest say they are fighting for immigrant communities, while officials maintain that violence and property damage will not be tolerated.
