Hey everyone! Things got pretty intense in Los Angeles on Tuesday night. Amid a strict overnight curfew, police arrested 25 people in downtown LA following five days of protests against Donald Trump's immigration crackdown.
While many of the demonstrations stayed peaceful, isolated acts of looting and vandalism shifted the mood, prompting the police to intervene swiftly. In a bold move, Trump ordered additional troops to be deployed—even with objections from the state governor—raising the stakes further.
Once the curfew was in effect, only a handful of protestors lingered downtown, leading to more arrests as law enforcement urged everyone to disperse. The crackdown highlights a global debate on balancing public order with the right to protest.
