LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- There were tense moments at an immigration rally in Los Angeles Tuesday afternoon.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Images: Riot Police Called To L.A. Rally --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Riot police were called to a MacArthur Park near downtown and fired rubber bullets at a crowd, officials said.
The incident was caught on tape by several media organizations.
Numerous officers were deployed to the area at dusk.
Police arrested several people suspected of throwing rocks and bottles at officers, said Officer Mike Lopez, a police spokesman.
Police used batons to push several people who had spilled into the street back onto the sidewalk.

Does anyone have any other information on this?
Just curious.
There’s a cnn report on YouTube
Good, hope they busted some leftscum skulls.
The left is more of an enemy of life and freedom than the Islamists. Anyone who doesn’t realize that is not paying attention to history or the objective world.
The police were beating children?
"Let me introduce you to Special Order 41!"
yeah, I wish.
However, the Communist left have lead these sheep-els along to the slaughter and they in turn have brought their children along. Innocents, the non-leaders, are going to get hurt, which is a shame.
Press Conference upcoming with LAPD Chief Bratton
If that photograph depicted the violence it pretends to portray, there’d be a crack in the camera objective.
Staged rubbish.
No. I saw a repeat of the video and they showed children crying and being comforted by their Mothers, but I didn’t see any children get beat. I did see, however, a riot officer take a swing with his baton at a father carrying a toddler as the father was running past. I couldn’t tell if the father and child were actually hit, though.
Wrong place...wrong time, I guess.
I just hate it that so many innoncents were lead out to marches like this under the guise of peace, not knowing that today is the national communist/anarchist holiday.
I turned my police scanner off around 4pm after hearing about the middle school boy molested by someone in the crowd...
letting kids ditch school has bad consequences...
Nope. Not staged. There were too many live videos I have seen from various resources. Unfortunately, I’m betting there was too much pressure on the officers and a few lost their cool, which, as I can imagine, could happen easily in that environment.
They were being rock and bottled. Standard response. Happens nearly every week during the summer.
Me too,how much?
LOL!
When I mean staged, I mean the protestor knew what the limits were, and the police knew what the limits were. In real conflicts there are no such boundaries. This is pablum for the masses.
Those are all SWAT officers manning those less than lethal weapons....
15 LAPD officers received medical attention...
