WASHINGTON, June 12 (Reuters) - Americans are divided over President Donald Trump 's decision to activate the military to respond to protests against his crackdown on migrants, with about half supportive of the move, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll that closed on Thursday.

Four detainees have escaped from a federal immigration detention center in New Jersey, which has been the center of protests since its opening in May and where both a sitting congresswoman and Newark’s mayor have been arrested.

Four detainees escaped when tensions boiled over at the ICE facility​ known as Delaney Hall in Newark, the Department of Homeland Security confirms.

On June 12, detainees at Delaney Hall in Newark pushed down a wall and escaped during a disturbance that prompted a major law enforcement response.
