Widespread US Immigration Raid Protests Erupt in Los Angeles, Troops Use Tear Gas

Protests erupted across Los Angeles in response to federal immigration enforcement raids, with thousands joining coordinated nationwide demonstrations against President Donald Trump's policies during the 'No Kings Day' protests. Police used tear gas, flash bangs, and horses to disperse protesters who attempted to block streets with barricades, resulting in chaotic scenes and at least six injuries. The demonstrations followed a tense week in Los Angeles, where the Trump administration deployed National Guard troops and U.S. Marines to assist local law enforcement in maintaining order. A curfew was declared as confrontations escalated near the Roybal Federal Building, with law enforcement using rubber bullets and stun grenades to control the crowds. These protests are part of a broader national response opposing the administration's immigration crackdown and related policies. Multiple sources confirm the intense clashes and law enforcement's heavy-handed response during these ongoing demonstrations.
