Protesters threw rocks and bottles at police officers who responded with pepper spray outside a rally for presidential candidate Donald Trump in Albuquerque, New Mexico, police said. Protesters chanted anti-Trump slogans, held anti-Trump signs and waved Mexican flags before the demonstration descended into chaos with some protesters standing on top of police cars. The protesters chanted anti-Trump slogans and knocked down barricades in an attempt to storm the convention. Police said they made arrests both outside and inside the rally, where protesters continually interrupted Trump's speech. Protests have become common outside rallies for Trump, the party's presumptive nominee, who has polarised opinion with his rhetoric against illegal immigration.
