Thousands of people joined another night of protests in Minneapolis on Saturday, following the death of a woman who was shot by a US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent in the city. Earlier, city officials said 30 people had been arrested during the weekend's protests, and one police officer was injured after a "chunk of ice was thrown at them". The city of Minneapolis said on Saturday that the "vast majority of community members have demonstrated peacefully". On Friday night, Minneapolis Police declared an unlawful assembly as protesters gathered outside the Canopy Hotel in the city, where some ICE agents were believed to be staying. One law enforcement officer suffered minor injuries but did not need any medical attention, according to the BBC's US partner CBS News.
