Hispanic journalist arrested during metro Atlanta protests in ICE custody
ATLANTA – A Hispanic journalist arrested during Saturday’s immigration protest is now in the custody of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, agents have confirmed to FOX 5.
On Wednesday evening, activists held a news conference to demand his release and for the charges against anyone arrested to be dropped.
What we know:
ICE agents picked up Mario Guevara, 47, from the DeKalb County jail overnight Tuesday into Wednesday, according to the agency.
They say the El Salvadoran man is here illegally. Guevara’s attorneys say he had a work authorization and was working toward getting a green card.
Now, his future is unknown.
What they’re saying:
Activists say Guevara should never have been arrested.
They say he listened to officers. Video reviewed by FOX 5 made it appear Guevara was on the sidewalk when officers arrested him, but he’s charged with obstruction of law enforcement officers, walking improperly in a roadway and unlawful assembly.
Protesters say they believe Guevara was targeted by police.
“The demand is that he’s immediately released back to his family and back to the community. And we’re going to be here fighting until he is released,” said Estevan Hernandez, an immigration rights activist. “These deportations do not make our country safer. They make it crueler than they stain the conscience of a nation that claims to stand for justice.”
“The journalist in question violated his visa years ago and was ordered by an immigration judge to leave the country in 2012. If he wanted to remain in our country, he should have done so legally,” said Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA). “It’s nice that ICE is finally upholding the rule of law, and they have my full support”
What’s next:
Guevara’s attorneys are trying to get a bond hearing in immigration court. It’s unclear if that will happen.
Protesters say they will demonstrate again this Saturday in Lawrenceville.

Heading into the game, Indiana had dropped two straight and was looking for a spark. The team had shown it could compete with top-tier opponents, beating teams like the Liberty and Lynx earlier this season, but putting together consistent performances has been a challenge.

Against Atlanta, they found their groove. Indiana controlled the pace and came out on top with a 99-82 victory, led by Clark’s steady hand and playmaking.
The game was especially memorable for Clark, who reached 950 career points faster than nearly anyone in league history. According to Polymarket Hoops, she’s now the sixth fastest player to reach that mark.

Clark finished with 12 points, four rebounds, and nine assists. She helped Indiana outplay a Dream team that featured Brittney Griner, Allisha Gray, and Rhyne Howard. Griner had 10 points, eight rebounds, and one assist in the loss.

This season, Clark has averaged 17.4 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 8.6 assists per game. It’s been another strong campaign for the second-year guard, though injuries have been part of the story. She missed time earlier this year with a groin strain and later dealt with a leg injury, but has continued to be a key piece for the Fever.
Clark’s performance against Atlanta showed that, when she’s healthy and on the floor, she’s still one of the most exciting players in the WNBA.
Indiana will host Paige Bueckers and the Dallas Wings Sunday afternoon.

Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever look to bounce back from a disappointing loss in the star’s return from injury.
Clark was held to 10 points in the Fever’s 80-61 loss to the Golden State Valkyries at home on Wednesday, in addition to recording six assists and five rebounds. She shot 4-of-12 from the field and made 2-of-5 3-pointers in the loss, which marked her first game back in the lineup after being sidelined five games due to a left groin injury.
“It felt good to be out there,” Clark said, noting it’s “going to take me a second to get my wind back. There’s not anything that can replicate a true game. … I was trying to play shorter stints, but sometimes it’s almost harder to sit on the bench and come in the game. It’s kind of finding a balance of that. Just trying to get my legs under me.”
The Fever’s schedule doesn’t get any easier with a matchup against the Atlanta Dream on Friday, July 11. The Dream may have lost three of their last five games, but Atlanta (12-7) enters the matchup with the fourth-best record in the league and has a 2-1 head-to-head advantage over the Fever (9-10) this season, winning the last matchup 77-58 in Atlanta on June 10. Clark was ruled out of that contest with a left quad injury.
Here’s everything you need to know about the Fever’s matchup against the Dream Friday:
Rhyne Howard is back on the court. She returned to start the third quarter with a large brace on her left leg after appearing to hyperextend her knee in the second quarter. Howard got some shots up during halftime and determined she was good to go.
Jordin Canada is red-hot for the Dream. Canada set a new career-high with 26 points in the first half, with most of her points coming from a career-high six 3-pointers. Canada was shooting 6-of-29 from 3 entering Friday’s matchup, but she’s already tied her season total from beyond the arc in the first half alone.
How? “Just being confident in myself and knowing that when the ball comes to me, I got to put it in the hoop,” Canada said at halftime, adding that the Dream need to “keep being aggressive” against the Fever.
Despite Canada’s lights-out shooting, the Fever only trail by five points at halftime. Kelsey Mitchell leads the Fever with 14 points.
Meanwhile, Caitlin Clark’s shooting woes have continued. She has four points and five assists, shooting 2-of-7 from the field and 0-of-4 from 3.
The Dream’s Rhyne Howard was shaken up after getting tangled up with the Fever’s Lexie Hull on a rebound attempt. With the Fever leading 24-23 with 7:29 remaining in the second quarter, Howard appeared to hyperextend her left knee while chasing a rebound and the All-Star immediately went down clutching her knee. She was carried back to the locker room. She has five points on the night.
The Atlanta Dream have a two-point lead heading into the second quarter, thanks to a 10-point performance from Jordin Canada, who knocked down a pair of threes in the first quarter.
The Fever, who had the second-best field-goal percentage in the league heading into Friday’s contest (45.7%), were held to 36.4% from the field and only 2-of-10 from three, compared to the Dream’s 50% from the field and beyond the arc.
Natasha Howard has a team-high five points. Clark is up to four points (2-of-5 FG, 0-of-2 3PT).
What time is Indiana Fever vs. Atlanta Dream?
The Indiana Fever host the Atlanta Dream at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis on Friday, July 11 at 7:30 p.m. ET. The game will be broadcast on ION.

Yes. Clark was not listed on the Fever’s injury report and is ready to go Friday. She previously missed five games with a quad injury and five games due to a left groin injury.
Caitlin Clark and Tyrese Haliburton are each other’s best friends.
Haliburton has been a mainstay at Fever games, most recently at the Fever’s loss against Golden State on July 9. Clark has returned the favor. Clark attended Game 4 of the NBA Finals between the Indiana Pacers and Oklahoma City Thunder alongside several of her teammates.
“He loves basketball,” Clark said on Friday. “He certainly loves the Fever and he loves this state.”

ATLANTA – The FBI’s Atlanta Field Office has seized several high-traffic websites accused of distributing pirated video games, resulting in an estimated $170 million in losses to the gaming industry, federal officials announced Thursday.
What we know:
The seized domains — including nsw2u.com, nswdl.com, game-2u.com, bigngame.com, ps4pkg.com, ps4pkg.net, and mgnetu.com — allegedly hosted and facilitated access to illegal copies of popular video games, often days or weeks before their official release dates.
Visitors to the seized sites are now met with a federal seizure banner indicating the domains are under the control of U.S. law enforcement.
What they’re saying:
“For more than four years, the websites contained pirated copies of highly anticipated video games,” the FBI said in a statement. From February 28 to May 28, 2025, one of the most-used download services on these sites recorded more than 3.2 million downloads, authorities said.
What’s next:
The FBI also dismantled the underlying infrastructure supporting the illegal activity and credited the Dutch Fiscal Information and Investigation Service (FIOD) for assisting in the international investigation.
