Federal Agents Clash with Anti-Deportation Protesters in Los Angeles
Massive demonstrations erupt over immigration raids and military deployment
Federal agents and protesters clashed in Los Angeles over the weekend as demonstrations against recent immigration raids escalated into violent confrontations.
The protests, sparked by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations resulting in over 120 arrests, saw demonstrators blocking traffic, setting fires, and throwing objects at law enforcement.
In response, authorities deployed tear gas, rubber bullets, and flash-bang grenades to disperse crowds.
The unrest prompted President Donald Trump to deploy 2,000 National Guard troops to the city without state approval, a move condemned by California Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass as an overreach of federal authority.
