ICE Agents Have Tires Slashed in New York Protest
Federal immigration agencies retreated after a four-hour standoff at a roofing site where protesters slashed tires of a Border Patrol vehicle amid sanctuary city tensions.
- On Tuesday, immigration agents clashed with roofers and more than 100 protesters at a residential site in Rochester, New York, ending with officials leaving after having their tires slashed.
- The standoff stemmed from heightened immigration enforcement by the Trump administration and occurred in a sanctuary city where agents sought suspected illegal immigrants.
- During the four-hour standoff, one roofer, known as "Chino" according to his employer Clayton Baker, was taken into custody, while several others remained atop the rooftop as protesters gathered below, shouting and applauding.

- The event reflects growing nationwide tensions over immigration enforcement, with officials preparing broader crackdowns on sanctuary cities and communities committed to supporting immigrants' dignity and justice.
