2 suspects indicted in assault of TPUSA reporter Savanah Hernandez during Minneapolis ICE protest: sources
Federal prosecutors say the case shows 3 defendants assaulted a reporter during an anti-ICE protest, and all face summonses for a May 12 court date.
- On Wednesday, federal prosecutors indicted two individuals on charges stemming from the April 11 assault on Turning Point USA reporter Savanah Hernandez at the Whipple ICE Facility in Minneapolis.
- Organizers of the "National F*ck ICE Day" event shipped more than 600 sex toys to the Whipple ICE Facility, where demonstrators lined the fence with vulgar signs reading "Get the F*ck Out ICE."
- Video footage shows a leftist punched Hernandez, knocking her to the ground while she filmed from a public street; others later intervened to break up the fight.
- "I am extremely grateful to the DOJ and FBI," Hernandez stated, noting this intervention marks a change from past assaults where she received no response.
- Federal charges for on-camera assaults may signal a shift in prosecutorial priorities, potentially influencing how newsrooms assess safety protocols during future demonstrations nationwide.
