Dallas police detained one person during a “No Kings” protest in Downtown Dallas.

A third wave of No Kings protests are scheduled across the U.S. and North Texas on Saturday.

Nine defendants face a mix of 12 charges, the most serious of which are three counts of attempted murder against U.S. officers or employees.

The jury is expected to begin deliberating after hearing closing arguments and being read the jury charge Wednesday.

Prosecutors will likely rest their case early this week after two weeks of presenting evidence in what the Trump administration calls the first domestic terrorism case associated with “antifa."

Fort Worth federal Judge Mark Pittman specifically named Benjamin Song as the person who nonfatally shot a police officer outside an ICE detention center. Pittman ruled Song and the defendants charged with aiding and abetting him cannot claim the officer was shot to protect anyone.

Alleged antifa materials and a self-defense theory that could change the trajectory of the case: Here’s what jurors learned in week one of the Prairieland trial.

Nineteen people have been arrested over the past seven months for their alleged involvement in the Prairieland ICE Detention Center shooting in Alvarado on July 4. Nine of those people are on federal trial in Fort Worth this week.

Tuesday marked the start of jury selection in the trial for nine defendants charged in the July 4 Prairieland shooting.
