A judge is considering temporarily restricting federal officers’ ability to use of force during protests in Portland, Oregon, after agents used teargas on a crowd that included children during a protest over the weekend.
Thousands of protesters gathered outside an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility on Saturday in what Keith Wilson, the city’s mayor, described as a peaceful demonstration “where the vast majority of those present violated no laws, made no threat and posed no danger” to federal agents.
