LA Freeway Protest Erupts Amidst Surge in ICE Raids
Thousands protested ICE raids and deportations in downtown Los Angeles, marching from Olvera Street to City Hall and subsequently onto the 101 Freeway. This resulted in significant freeway closures and major traffic delays in the area, further compounded by pre-existing Grammy Awards street closures. Authorities reported unlawful freeway access by protesters, urging drivers to avoid the affected area. The demonstration follows President Trump’s increased deportation efforts since his inauguration.
