Photos: Anti-ICE demonstrations break out in Tucson after killing in Minnesota
Hundreds turn out for at least two demonstrations in Tucson, including some 300 along Congress Street near Granada Avenue, Saturday, Jan. 24, 2026, to protest federal agents fatally shooting a man in Minnesota. Across Tucson, others protesting the Minnesota shooting gathered at Freedom Park, 5000 E. 29th St., and more than a hundred marched from there to the U.S. Border Patrol station entrance at Swan and Golf Links roads.
Several hundred brave a steady rain in downtown Tucson early Saturday evening to protest federal agents' killing of a man in Minnesota earlier in the day. Elsewhere in the city, protesters against the Minnesota shooting also gathered at Freedom Park, 5000 E. 29th St., and a couple hundred of them, according to one observer's estimate, marched from there to a Border Patrol station at Swan and Golf Links.
The evening rain is unable to put a damper on the hundreds who turned out along Congress Street to protest the killing of a man in Minnesota earlier in the day by federal agents.
