PHOTOS: A fierce setback in the ice raids in the angels of the protesters, officials


A series of surprise of immigration and compliance with the customs of the United States Barre on Friday in Los Angeles in downtown Los Angeles caused a fierce rejections of elected officials and protesters, who denounced the actions to apply the application as “cruel and unnecessary” and said they fueled fear in the immigrant community.

Tensions remained high in the city center until night. The Los Angeles Police Department declared an illegal assembly and ordered some 200 protesters who remained gathered by the Los Angeles Federal Building to disperse around 7 PM.

The use of the so -called less lethal ammunition was authorized at 8 pm after the reports of a small group of “violent individuals” that threw large pieces of concrete to the officers, police said. A tactical alert throughout the city was broadcast shortly after.
