SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — The “No Kings” protest in Salt Lake City was struck by violence when a man allegedly brandished a rifle near the crowd, prompting a volunteer for the event to fire three shots, hitting the man and a protester who later died, according to police and event organizers.
The fashion designer was among 10,000 protesters who occupied downtown Salt Lake City for the “No Kings” protest.
On the same day Melissa Hortman and her husband were murdered in a "politically-motivated" assassination, more "politically-motivated" violence occurred at peaceful protests across the country.
Most of the "No Kings" protests across the country were peaceful, however, one person has died from a shooting in Salt Lake City.
