Protesters chanted slogans toward a line of Tucson Police officers, after a chaotic confrontation broke out Wednesday evening between protesters and security officers outside an immigration office, near South Country Club Road and East Valencia Road. After police arrived in riot gear, the crowd retreated from the ICE office, before reassembling and holding their position across from the police officers for nearly an hour. The protesters later moved back to the intersection of Valencia and South Country Club.
