Anti-ICE demonstrations spread to several cities including New York, Boston and Chicago following days of unrest in Los Angeles

Videos and photographs of Wednesday raids across the country show people clashing with, running from and being arrested by immigration agents.

Here is an update on June 12 at 7 a.m. on anti-ICE protests across the country on Wednesday. Loeffler, Trump’s pick to lead the Small Business Administration, owns 136,555 shares worth of the company’s stock.

The latest arrests suggest tensions are increasing ahead of the weekend, when more demonstrations are planned.

Under the banner of "No Kings," people turned out in towns large and small with signs and chants in a largely peaceful protest against policies of the Trump administration.

In the Sunshine State, officials are promising zero tolerance for violence during demonstrations focused largely on immigration and ICE.

The Special Response Teams (SRTs) are tactical units under ICE that use BearCat tracked vehicles, long guns and tactical vests in operations considered high risk. They were used in the raid on Sean “Diddy” Combs’ home, for example. They were most recently used in Los Angeles and are seen as among the reasons protests began.
