Shots fired, windows broken following Albuquerque protest

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — Part of downtown Albuquerque remained closed Monday after a protest along the historic Route 66 turned violent overnight. Fires were set and police officers say they were fired upon. Albuquerque police spokesman Gilbert Gallegos says officers reported shots fired at them in front of the historic Kimo Theater after a largely peaceful demonstration had already ended. He says there was damage to several properties in the area, including broken windows and some looting. Earlier, hundreds took part in a march protesting the death of George Floyd in Minnesota. At one point, they all raised their fists and held a moment of silence.
