Live updates: Federal agent operations canceled for entire Bay Area, Oakland mayor confirms

Two protesters were injured, and flash bangs were deployed when federal agents arrived at Coast Guard Island in Alameda, just as Trump announced he's calling off a surge in San Francisco.

Two protesters were injured as federal agents arrived at Coast Guard Island in Alameda Thursday morning.

Video obtained by ABC7 News shows one protester injuring his foot as one of the SUVs drove by.

Coast Guard security agents were warning protesters that they could be hit if they did not move.

The man, Matthew Leber, told ABC7 News he has no regrets.

"I'm so glad to be here with community who say that we stand with our immigrant neighbors and anyone that our fascist government is trying to attack," Leber said.

Video also shows the moment one of the protesters was hit in the jaw area by a flash bang cannister.

Flash bangs were used to disperse the protesters blocking the road, to allow the vehicles to go through.

Federal agents are arriving at the Coast Guard Base in Alameda Thursday morning.

They were met by a group of protesters at the entrance to the island around 7:14 a.m. U.S. Coast Guard security forces had to use flash bangs to get the vehicles through the group of protesters.

Many of the protesters were holding signs or in masks and were walking back and forth at the crosswalk.

Thousands of people logged onto Zoom Wednesday night for a call to action titled - Stay Out of the Bay. The group Bay Resistance is organizing a rally and march for Thursday in San Francisco to push back ON the presence of Border Patrol agents in the region.

We spoke with Bill Hing, Professor of Law and Migration Studies at USF, about the heightened fear among the immigrant community.

"I'll be honest with you, many of my students are going to neighborhoods, and Home Depot parking lots and handing out information, we've done know your rights presentations at car washes and schools," Hing said.

ABC7 asked Hing about the difference between Border Patrol and ICE.

"The Border Patrol and ICE agents can arrest people if they have good reason to believe the person is undocumented," Hing said.

The Trump Administration has already sent federal law enforcement to Portland, Chicago, and Los Angeles.

"The way I would describe it is a combination of fear, and a combination of hope that something different will happen, but honestly, I think things are going to get worse in the Bay Area before it gets better," Hing said.

ABC7 News spoke with Gabriel Medina, Executive Director of La Raza Community Resource Center.

"We've been holding the line for power, not panic, for a long time but I think the threats and the messaging changed in the sense that we're advising everyone to stay home tomorrow," Medina said.

In the South Bay, ABC7 News spoke to Huy Tran, executive director of the nonprofit SIREN, who said regardless of which federal agency is deployed in the Bay Area - they want to make their discontent known.

"Protest is most powerful when it stays peaceful," Tran said. He went on to say, "When violence breaks out, they are going to hyper focus on that one incident and they're going to say this is the justification to now send in National Guard troops."

Along with a protest Thursday evening, Bay Resistance is organizing an afternoon rally in San Francisco with a coalition of community groups.

Agents with U.S. Customs and Border Protection are being dispatched to Coast Guard Base Alameda within the next 24 hours, according to officials.

ABC News confirmed with a source familiar with the plans that the agents are part of an "immigration surge operation."

"This support of DHS agencies continues the Coast Guard's operations to control, secure, and defend U.S. borders and maritime approaches," said Coast Guard spokesperson. "Through a whole-of-government approach, we are leveraging our unique authorities and capabilities to detect, deter, and interdict illegal aliens, narco-terrorists, and individuals intent on terrorism or other hostile activity before they reach our border."
