ICE Agents Make Arrests After Far-Left Rioters Attack and Damage Vehicles Outside Newark Detention Facility (VIDEO)
Far-left rioters once again surrounded the Newark, New Jersey, ICE detention facility on Friday evening after a week of unrest.
Law enforcement clashed with anti-ICE protestors late Thursday. Police arrested two people who traveled to Delaney Hall from out of state and charged them with several offenses.
After several nights of violence, far-left Mayor Ras Baraka decided to pull police away from the ICE facility.
“Given the significant reduction in unrest, the city will begin scaling back its presence at Delaney Hall. After tonight, NPD will focus on traffic management and public safety, ensuring the protection of both protesters and motorists. We urge all protesters to remain peaceful so that attention remains focused on the urgent health and safety needs of detainees and the closing of Delaney Hall.”
Border Czar Tom Homan said the mayor made a bad move.
“They’re going to regret that decision. Look, when I got up there, they weren’t responding to 911 calls. ICE officers were being assaulted in the street. They called; they’re overwhelmed. Police officers didn’t respond, state police didn’t respond. The first thing I did, I met with the state police, I met with the mayor of that city, I met with the police department. I’ve had several conversations with the governor. I said the same thing I did in Minneapolis, you have to do your public safety job,” Homan said on Fox News on Thursday.
Homan was right.
The violent rioters returned on Friday evening and started back up again.

This comes as rioters have ALREADY caused extensive damage to vehicles leaving the facility, and poured over sand barrels in the road.
