Woman who led a protest at a St. Paul church service has been arrested, Bondi says
A woman who led an anti-immigration enforcement protest that disrupted a service at a St. Paul church has been arrested, Attorney General Pam Bondi said Thursday.
Bondi announced the arrest of Nekima Levy Armstrong in a post on X days after protesters during Sunday service entered the Cities Church in St. Paul, where a local official with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement serves as a pastor.
The Justice Department quickly opened a civil rights investigation after the group interrupted services by chanting “ICE out” and “Justice for Renee Good,” referring to the 37-year-old mother of three who was fatally shot by an ICE officer in Minneapolis earlier this month amid a surge in federal immigration enforcement activities.
