The incident took place at the Wilshire Federal Building in Los Angeles where Marines took charge of the mission to protect the building earlier on Friday, in a rare domestic use of U.S. troops after days of protests over immigration raids.
Reuters images showed Marines apprehending a civilian, restraining his hands with zip ties and then handing him over to civilians from the Department of Homeland Security.

Reuters wire photos identify the detained man as Marcos Leao, a 27-year-old veteran. It is unclear if he is still in US custody.

This Guardian page has live updates about this situation.

he might just not want the Sauron’s eye of the white house vengeance machine to turn onto him, and saying whatever sounds good to be ignored
He’s literally a veteran, let’s not be giving him too much credit
i wasn’t but also i understand human behavior to a degree. veteran or not
I don’t doubt staying out of trouble was a consideration, but if he’s not also a bootlicker I’ll eat my hat.
I swear I got transported to The Onion™ Universe or something a while back
