LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WAVE) – Occupy ICE protestors are at the Heyburn Building in Louisville after leaving their downtown camp last week. On Thursday morning, protesters blocked the entrance and elevators to the building, which houses the Louisville Immigration Court on the 11th floor among other businesses. Protesters say that this is "one of the three core locations where our city is complicity in the terrorization of immigration families," according to a press release on Instagram. Occupy ICE said one of their protestors had been arrested Thursday morning. FAQ “Hepburn Building and Occupy ICE Louisville”. #campcompasión #chingalamigra #wereback #abolishice #shutitdown #heyburnshutdownA post shared by Occupy ICE Louisville (@occupyicelou) on Jul 26, 2018 at 5:18am PDT
