LAPD Enforces Curfew Amid Anti-ICE Protests in Los Angeles
Nearly 200 arrested as city declares local emergency
The Los Angeles Police Department enforced a strict overnight curfew in parts of downtown Los Angeles following five consecutive days of protests against federal immigration raids by ICE.

The demonstrations, sparked by intensified immigration enforcement activities, have drawn significant public attention and criticism from local officials who view the federal actions as overly aggressive and harmful to immigrant communities.
