LOS ANGELES–Law enforcement continued to fire flash bangs in an effort to disperse remaining protesters and agitators near City Hall in downtown Los Angeles where unlawful assembly has been declared.

In the days before protests erupted in Los Angeles, the Trump administration stepped up its efforts to detain migrants — taking into custody those who arrived for routine check-ins while also conducting workplace raids that have sent waves of fear across Southern California and beyond.

Mayor Karen Bass said Sunday that Los Angeles does not need National Guard troops to bolster city police amid protests against raids by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, despite violent incidents.

Demonstrators gathered in communities large and small. Many events on the East Coast have ended, but police clashed with some protesters in L.A.
