The U.S. Border Patrol will be in Raleigh on Tuesday after a weekend of arrests and protests in Charlotte, Raleigh Mayor Janet Cowell told The News & Observer on Monday night.
The expected action comes after U.S. Border Patrol agents reportedly arrested over 130 people in Charlotte this weekend in places like restaurants, grocery stores, Home Depot parking lots and an east Charlotte church, The Charlotte Observer reported.
“As the capital city, it is important to us that everyone who lives, works, plays and learns in Raleigh feels safe,” Cowell said in a statement Monday night.
