It doesn’t sound like this turned into an apprehension just based on insults or verbal assaults (I saw a lot of constraint on the agents part when that was occurring) by the two women, but rather due to the fact that they were blocking/impeding not only the ICE agents, but also the general public. Also, the agent was on the side of the vehicle until the driver backed up and then turned toward him. I am not sure how you would react to suddenly finding yourself in front of a 4-5k lb vehicle accelerating toward you, but I suspect it can be unnerving. Also, the image of ICE agents and their enforcement activities real, imagined, exaggerated or otherwise do not condone someone trying to run down an agent. But as I have said over and over again in this thread, there is nothing good that comes out of making any conclusions wrt to criminal culpability of the agent or protesters at this point. I am sure there will be even more evidence coming out in the future, and the event will scrutinized by people more experienced in these types of situations.
Btw, police agencies around the world have been giving wide latitude for these disruptive protests and that has to stop. Protesting something one stands for is a good thing, breaking the law by blocking major roads, etc. is not unless a permit has been issued to allow for the closures.
