Authorities with Homeland Securities Investigations at the ICE detention facility Delaney Hall this afternoon arrested Newark Mayor Ras Baraka and charged him with trespassing.

The mayor's arrest following an argument with agents came after a tense week at the privately owned and operated immigrant detention center in Newark.

More HERE.

This from NJ.com, by way of context:

A U.S. Department of Homeland Security official sharply criticized Newark’s mayor on Thursday over his opposition to an immigrant detention center in his city, accusing him of “political antics” that the official said endanger ICE officers and detainees.
