AUSTIN (KXAN) -- Protesters gathered in north Austin Monday night in a demonstration against President Trump's immigration policies and enhanced ICE operations, including in the Austin-area.
Protesters could be seen with Mexican flags and signs.
At roughly 7 p.m. the Austin Police Department (APD) posted on X that they were "aware of a large group gathering near N Lamar Blvd. and Rutland Dr." The department asked drivers to avoid the area if possible.
Just before 8 p.m., APD said the crowd had dispersed.
