Protesters lay siege to Minnesota hotel in chaotic scenes amid unrest in wake of Alex Pretti shooting
Protesters stormed a Minnesota hotel where they suspected ICE agents had been staying amid unrest following the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti.
The chaos unfolded outside of the Home Suites by Hilton Hotel in Minneapolis on Sunday night - a day after the 37-year-old ICU nurse was fatally shot by border patrol officers in the sanctuary city.
Protestors bashed windows and spray-painted the hotel's facade, videos showed. Others chanted and paced in front of the building.
Many of the mob wore masks as they descended on the scene at around 9pm, banging on garbage bins and bells.
Someone vandalized the glass window at the Hilton's entrance, with bright red spray paint reading, 'ICE OUT OF MPLS.' One person pounding on a garbage pail held a sign that read: 'No justice, no peace.'
