💨 Abstract

witnessed violent protests triggered by immigration raids and Trump's demand for National Guard deployment, which Governor Newsom opposed. Protesters set self-driving cars on fire, blocked roads, and clashed with police using various objects. LAPD and National Guard employed tear gas, rubber bullets, and other crowd-control measures. By evening, police issued an unlawful assembly order, shutting down downtown blocks. Emotions ran high on both sides, with further confrontations and arrests.
