A protest outside Donald Trump’s rally in Albuquerque, New Mexico, turned violent as protesters threw burning T-shirts, plastic bottles and other items at police officers, injuring several, and toppling trash cans and barricades.
Police responded by throwing smoke grenades and firing pepper spray into the crowd outside the Albuquerque Convention Center.
The protesters waved Mexican flags, shouted obscenities, and broke windows at the entrance of the convention center.
Inside the rally, protesters were removed by security and simultaneously mocked by Trump, who told them to “go home to mommy” as they interrupted his speech.
