~~Protesters gathered at the Home2 Suites by Hilton near the University of Minnesota, according to the Minnesota Daily, where they believed federal immigration agents were staying after the killing of Alex Pretti. Video from the scene shows protesters making loud noises outside and graffiti on the windows with messages saying things like “ICE out,” alluding to US Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the federal government agency which has been at the forefront of the Trump administration’s ongoing mass deportation campaign.

The New York Post reported the demonstrators also attempted to throw things at people inside the lobby and smash windows. Video shows two federal officers with long guns standing outside the hotel lobby as protesters gather. “Where’s the local PD?” one officer can be heard saying in the video, referring to the police department.

Eventually, law enforcement dispersed the crowd using the irritant colloquially known as teargas.~~
