LAPD monitoring large protest in downtown Los Angeles – NBC Los Angeles
A rally opposing immigration crackdowns blocked the northbound lanes of the 101 Freeway on Sunday, according to the Los Angeles Police Department.
Droves of protesters flocked to downtown Los Angeles in what police described as a “non-permitted demonstration.” LAPD said it was monitoring a peaceful protest that made its way to City Hall and then moved onto the freeway, according to Officer Lee.
The department said it’s unaware if the protest is in opposition to immigration crackdowns, but signs referencing the matter have been seen being held by protesters. It’s unclear if the large group obtained a permit for their rally.
As a result of the demonstration, Spring Street is closed from 1st Street to Temple Street. LAPD urged protesters who were blocking the 101 Freeway to move the demonstration to allow motorists to drive.
The LAPD is currently monitoring a large protest taking place in downtown Los Angeles, according to NBC Los Angeles. The protest, which appears to be peaceful at this time, is drawing a significant crowd and has caused some road closures in the area.
Law enforcement officials are on hand to ensure the safety of both protesters and bystanders, and are closely monitoring the situation to prevent any potential disturbances. The LAPD has urged participants to exercise their right to protest peacefully and to avoid any acts of violence or destruction.
As the protest continues, NBC Los Angeles will provide updates on any developments and the response from law enforcement. Stay tuned for more information on this developing story.
