Santa Ana Police Dispute Federal Account of ICE Protest

Santa Ana Police Chief Robert Rodriguez contradicted federal claims that DHS officers faced attacks during a January protest at the downtown civic center. Using drone surveillance, police determined officers were not under attack and provided only perimeter security for firefighters. This contrasts with June 2025, when police fired tear gas at largely peaceful ICE raid protesters.
