Hundreds March For Marine José Guerena In Arizona

Hundreds of people marched in Tucson, Arizona Monday to honor Marine José Guerena, who was killed in his home when the Pima County SWAT team executed a search warrant for drugs in his home. None were found, but Guerena was shot dozens of times, denied care, and bled out in his home on May 5.

A right-wing organization claiming to uphold the Constitution organized the march:

A group called Oath Keepers organized a march and protest for Jose Guerena.

Guerena was killed by a Pima County SWAT team on May 5th. They entered his home with a search warrant, but deputies said when they went in, Guerena aimed an assault rifle at them. They fired 71 rounds and killed him.

More than a hundred people took part in the march, some of which came from as far away as Vegas. The people said they were there for a number of reasons: pay tribute to a fallen marine, support the victim’s family, and protest the tactics of the SWAT team.

The investigation of the incident is ongoing, Guerena left behind a wife and two sons. Watch a video of the report below:
