One teen protester detained over scuffle with Pennsylvania police chief enters probation program
One 16-year-old avoids felony with probation deal, while others face ongoing charges after a Feb. 20 anti-ICE protest clash involving Quakertown police, officials said.
- Five teenagers, known as the "Quakertown Five", were arrested during an ICE protest in Quakertown, Pennsylvania, and spent at least four nights in custody.
- One of the teens entered a probation program that will lead to charges being dismissed and expunged after six months if conditions are met.
- Attorneys for the teens said they are prepared to defend their clients' rights and that it was unnecessary for them to wear ankle bracelets given the circumstances.
