U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents fanned out across Charlotte on Saturday, making arrests along Charlotte’s immigrant-heavy Central Avenue and South Boulevard corridors. The arrests preceded a protest Saturday afternoon in uptown, where hundreds condemned the crackdown and the deployment of federal immigration agents.
