LAPD Disperses Hundreds Protesting ICE Raids in Downtown LA
Following ICE raids in Los Angeles, hundreds of protesters gathered outside the Federal Building to condemn the actions. The demonstration, which included a march towards a detention facility, resulted in the LAPD declaring an unlawful assembly and deploying riot gear to disperse the crowd. Many protesters were family members seeking information on detained loved ones, while immigration attorneys offered legal assistance. Concerns were raised about the lack of due process afforded to those detained, with some facing potential transfer before weekend’s end.
