Multiple protests took place throughout Northern California as part of the "No Kings" movement on Saturday. The protests coincide with President Donald Trump's birthday and the military parade celebrating the 250th anniversary of the U.

Peaceful demonstrations in downtown LA escalate to violent confrontation with police using tear gas as protesters throw objects, prompting warnings from LAPD and Homeland Security.

The Los Angeles Police Department has declared all of downtown as an unlawful assembly, telling all demonstrators to leave the area immediately. "Downtown Los Angeles has been declared as an UNLAWFUL ASSEMBLY. You are to leave the Downtown Area immediately," police said on X.

President Trump ordered National Guard troops to the area after clashes over immigration-enforcement operations.

The procession, with more than 6,000 soldiers and 128 Army tanks, was one Trump tried to make happen in his first term.

While the president contends that the L.A. protests against his immigration policy have been chaotic, the scenes are not as violent.
