ORLANDO, Fla. \u2014 A protester was detained outside an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) center in Orlando on Friday during a demonstration on Delegates Drive. <\/p>\n

Law enforcement confirmed the arrest occurred amid increasing tensions, resulting in 23-year-old Alexis Clark facing charges of Assault on a Law Enforcement Officer and Resisting Arrest. <\/p>\n

Sheriff John Mina stressed that peaceful assembly is fundamental, but violence won\u2019t be tolerated.<\/p>\n

Mina stated, \u201cThe right of all people to peacefully assemble or protest is fundamental and a cornerstone of every American\u2019s First Amendment right to free speech,\u201d highlighting the importance of protecting citizens\u2019 rights in public demonstrations. <\/p>\n

Channel 9 had a crew on the scene that witnessed the arrest<\/a>. Dozens of law enforcement officers, who had staged nearby for the protest, responded within seconds to a call for backup.<\/p>\n

He further specified, \u201cWhat is not protected, however, is the destruction of property or violence against any member of our community.\u201d<\/p>\n

In his statement, Mina warned, \u201cAny attempt to assault, stop, block, or otherwise hinder any law enforcement officers from doing their jobs will not be tolerated.\u201d <\/p>\n
