Immigration Agents Denounced for Raid Outside Minneapolis High School
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and other officials are also calling on
immigration agents to stay away from schools in Minneapolis, after
armed, masked Border Patrol officers came onto the property of Roosevelt
High School during dismissal on Wednesday. Agents deployed chemical
weapons, tackled people and handcuffed two staff members. U.S. Border
Patrol commander Gregory Bovino was at the school during the operation.
Minneapolis schools are closed again today for in-person classes.
