Protests in downtown Los Angeles turned chaotic Sunday night as demonstrators clashed with National Guard troops, prompting the LAPD to declare the area an "unlawful assembly." The unrest follows ICE raids across Southern California that began June 6, resulting in over 100 arrests. Tensions flared as crowds gathered to protest the enforcement actions, with videos on social media showing tear gas and confrontations near City Hall. 🚨
The ICE operations targeted undocumented residents in neighborhoods from Anaheim to San Diego, reigniting debates over immigration policies. "This is about humanity," one protester told local media, while authorities cited "public safety concerns" for the raids. National Guard troops were deployed after protesters blocked major highways, echoing 2020’s civil unrest.
As midnight approached, downtown LA resembled a scene from a dystopian flick—flashing lights, chants echoing off skyscrapers, and a heavy police presence. Stay tuned for updates as this developing story unfolds. 📱💥
