MINNEAPOLIS: Civil liberties and migrant-rights groups called for nationwide rallies on Saturday to protest the fatal shooting of an activist in Minnesota by a US immigration agent, as state authorities opened their own investigation of the killing. Protest organizers said more than 1,000 weekend events were planned across the country demanding an end to large-scale deployments of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents ordered by President Donald Trump, mostly to cities led by Democratic politicians.

People gathered at the scene of the killing to protest, and city’s mayor demanded ICE ‘get the fuck out of Minneapolis’

Demonstrators convened in Minneapolis, New York City and Chicago to speak out against the violence by ICE on Wednesday.
