LOS ANGELES (AP) — Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass lifted a curfew in downtown Los Angeles on Tuesday that was first imposed in response to clashes with police and vandalism amid protests against President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown in the city.

Los Angeles residents and experts say the National Guard's presence in Los Angeles in response to immigration protests is reminiscent of a long-standing dynamic in the state and around the country.

A federal appeals court will hear arguments regarding California's challenge to Trump's mobilization of the troops.

United States Army North confirmed to ABC News that Marines at the Wilshire Federal Building have made the first temporary detention among the troops sent to Los Angeles on Friday.

President Donald Trump is thanking an appeals court for freezing an order that he return control of National Guard troops to California.

As the military presence ramped up in Los Angeles, communities are preparing for the largest protests against Trump since he took office.

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