Atlanta, June 18 (RHC)-- In the U.S. state of Georgia, a prominent Spanish-language journalist is facing possible deportation after being arrested while covering Saturday’s “No Kings” protests.  

Mario Guevara, who was live-streaming the demonstration, was taken into custody despite clearly identifying as a journalist.  Originally from El Salvador, Guevara has built a large following for his reporting on anti-ICE protests. 

According to The Guardian, a municipal judge released him on bond Monday, but jail officials then said he would be transferred to ICE custody for deportation proceedings.
