14. Call 911 and report an assault in progress. Intimidation is assault.

Saturday
Minnesota law 609.224 ASSAULT IN THE FIFTH DEGREE.
Subdivision 1.Misdemeanor.
Whoever does any of the following commits an assault and is guilty of a misdemeanor:
(1) commits an act with intent to cause fear in another of immediate bodily harm or death; ...


What ICE is doing is a crime. Call 911 and report that you are being assaulted and you demand to press charges. Make the police come deal with it.

I guarantee that if you have 911 on the phone and say "I am being assaulted by a man in a mask with a gun and am in fear of my life. Please send an officer quickly.", the ICE agents will get the hell out of there before the real police show up.

And if they are wearing a costume that says "Police", they are committing another crime:
609.4751 IMPERSONATING A PEACE OFFICER.
...
Subd. 2.Gross misdemeanor.
Whoever violates subdivision 1 while committing any of the following acts is guilty of a gross misdemeanor:
...
(2) without legal authority, directing or ordering another person to act or refrain from acting;
...

Penalty: up to 364 days in jail and a maximum fine of $3,000.
