Hours after thousands of people flocked to downtown Los Angeles for a day of demonstrations, the scene took a turn from peaceful to violent as rising unrest spurred police to deploy tear gas.
"The demonstration has taken the street. A DISPERSAL ORDER has been issued for all persons located on Alameda south of Aliso and North of Temple to immediately leave the area," LAPD wrote in a warning on X.
"People in the crowd are throwing rocks, bricks, bottles and other objects. Less lethal has been approved. Less lethal may cause discomfort and pain. It is advised that all persons leave the area," another alert read.
Fox News correspondent Christina Coleman was on the scene and reported seeing glass bottles thrown at officers and what appeared to be gas deployed across the street from the area.
Fox News reported that LAPD, the LA County sheriff’s deputies, and SWAT are now on scene.
Deputies could be seen wearing riot gear on the front lines as officers announced an unlawful assembly had been declared and that gas would be deployed.
Video from the scene shows a large police presence, some on foot and others seen on horseback, boxing the crowd in.
A large group was also reported to be squaring off with police and chanting "peaceful protest!"

Certainly NOT the NGO that paid for the bricks...
these dam* commies are creating the “fascist” state they complain about
and
their puppetmeisters want
Wonder what the recruiting numbers are for the Lost Angeless Police Department?
Mayor Bass Ackwards hopes the numbers plummet, so she can defund even more.
And they’re too blind to see it.

The freaks in San Francisco were as friendly as ever (LAnguage warning)
After we scour the country to find, and arrest them, a typical trial can take days or weeks.
For each defendant.
Not counting appeals.
If we shut the judicial system down and concentrate only on trying foreign nationals here illegally, it could still take centuries,
Which is what the left wants, because they don’t want our immigration law enforced.
Trials are for Americans. Get illegal aliens out of our country, now.
Flipping between FOX and MSNBC I wonder if I am looking at the same riot!
Throughout history, people have preferred authoritarianism to anarchy.
Less lethal?
In FL, “throwing rocks, bricks, bottles and other objects” would earn the perps graveyard dead.
Insurrection = bullets ... problem solved.
A rock can kill. That is attempted murder. Shoot them. You have snipers. Give them clearance to shoot anyone they spot flinging anything.
