Police in riot gear confront protesters outside a hotel in Maple Grove, Minnesota.

Protesters gathered outside a suburban Minneapolis hotel, believing it to be a lodging for federal officers involved in "Operation Metro Surge." The demonstration, which included noise-making and was at times outnumbered by members of the press, led to several arrests after dispersal orders were issued. This event occurred during a period of heightened activity and scrutiny surrounding immigration enforcement in the region.
