Memorial procession supports victims of ICE shootings
An estimated 300 vehicles participated in a memorial procession Jan. 31 for Alex Pretti, who was recently shot and killed by federal agents in Minneapolis, Minn.
The demonstration was organized by Indivisible Southern Delaware.
The vehicles lined up at the Cape May-Lewes Ferry Terminal. Many people displayed anti-ICE messages and funeral procession signs in their windows.
The procession traveled through Lewes and ended at Epworth United Methodist Church in Rehoboth Beach, where a memorial service was held.
