Salvadoran journalist arrested while streaming a ‘No Kings’ protest could face deportation

A Salvadoran journalist who built a big social media following by documenting immigration raids may be facing deportation.

Mario Guevara, who was arrested during a “No Kings” protest near Atlanta last Saturday, was transferred to US Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody early Wednesday morning, a spokesperson for ICE in Atlanta confirmed to CNN.

Although a state judge had granted him release without bail, ICE authorities requested that he remain detained due to his immigration status.
