Police have not given an estimate of the number of protesters, but Arizona media said there were several thousand.
Trump supporters in some incidents confronted the protesters, defending the President and his actions.
Police called on the crowds to disperse. Many of the protesters quit the scene, while dozens of police in riot gear and carrying shields sought to clear remaining protesters from the downtown area. - Copyright Holder: REUTERS
