From Fox NewsA federal agent was injured after being attacked during an anti-U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) protest in Downtown Los Angeles on Friday, the Los Angeles Police Department confirmed.

“LAFD responding to a Federal Agent who was injured during the incident,” the LAPD wrote on X before 1 p.m.

In several other posts updating the progress of the marching protesters, the department said the demonstrators had blocked traffic, committed acts of vandalism, including at the Federal Building, and had thrown items at police.


The department later posted an update, saying, “Suspects who attacked the Federal Agents have blended into the March.” It’s unclear whether any arrests have been made.

Students were participating in a walkout, obstructing traffic while carrying flags and waving signs that said “Honk if you hate Nazis” and “F—k Trump,” according to the California Post.

The agent was transferred to a hospital in unknown condition, and their agency has not been announced

Earlier this month, police issued a dispersal order for another student-led anti-ICE protest in downtown L.A.

At least four suspects were detained for vandalizing property in the area during that protest and were expected to be charged with felony vandalism, according to the LAPD.
