Hundreds Attend Anti-Deportation Rally; Four People Arrested

Atlanta, GA -- An anti-deportation rally was held Monday in downtown Atlanta, and early reports are that four people were arrested during the demonstration.

Several people chained themselves to ladders and chairs on downtown streets, eventually resulting in police coming in with bolt cutters to remove them. One intersection was blocked for more than an hour, according to Channel 2 Action News.

The demonstrators were protesting last week's U.S. Supreme Court decision striking down President Obama's plan to shield millions of illegal immigrants from deportation.

The rally began at 10 a.m. at the state capitol and continued on to the Immigration and Customs building, according to CBS46.

Protesters blocked the intersection near the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Atlanta field office.
