CONWAY — A candlelight vigil for a Minnesota woman who was shot and killed by an ICE agent last week drew about 120 people to Library Park on Sunday evening.
MWV Resistance organized the vigil and said they are organizing “rapid response teams” to monitor ICE activity from Carroll County to Littleton.
