Activist organization plans vigil for woman fatally shot by ICE agent
A Minnesota activist organization is planning an “emergency vigil” for the woman fatally shot by an ICE agent earlier today.

The vigil is scheduled for today at 5 p.m. local time, the Minnesota Immigrant Rights Action Committee announced on Facebook.

“We witnessed an atrocious attack on our community today. Community members were taken from us and an observer was shot dead. ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA NOW,” the organization wrote.
