Deputies told Denver7 Arapahoe County reporter Adria Iraheta they cited 4 protesters Monday at the Centennial ICE field office during demonstrations.
CENTENNIAL, Colo. — Four people were detained and cited Monday after a tense standoff with law enforcement outside an Immigration and Customs Enforcement field office in Centennial, as protests continued for a fourth day following a shooting at a nearby ICE detention facility.
The Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office says the four were detained, cited and released at the scene after they were “warned multiple times to stop impeding operation of a public building.”
The protests began after reports of health concerns inside the Aurora Processing Center. Adams County health officials previously confirmed one case of active tuberculosis at the Auora immigration detention center, but health officials said the company that runs the facility had failed to provide the legally-required access needed to complete the investigation and determine if there are additional cases.
On Thursday night, Emma Landis was allegedly shot in the foot by a GEO Group employee during a protest at the Aurora facility. The suspected shooter, Brandon Booth, 42, was arrested the same day.
