Los Angeles Police Department officers and protesters got into violent clashes Saturday in downtown L.A., one of several cities nationwide with demonstrations the same night.
During L.A.’s protests, people gathered outside City Hall and in front of the Federal Building on North Los Angeles Street, which was left with smashed windows and spray-painted markings on its exterior. One message read: “Bacon gets fried.”
An officer says something to a woman holding up her phone before appearing to push her. A man then runs toward the officer and knocks him to the ground. Other LAPD officers and a few protesters rush toward the man, some of the officers waving their batons.
