Los Angeles police officers fired over 1,000 projectiles at protesters

Los Angeles police officers fired over a thousand projectiles at Trump administration protesters on a single day in June. The police department released a report Monday that included numbers on its use of bean bags, rubber and foam rounds, and tear gas during days of protests in Los Angeles. Protesters rallied against federal policies on immigration and the decision to deploy the National Guard to the nation’s second largest city. California requires law enforcement agencies to report use of force against protesters. One expert called the number of rounds fired “startlingly high.”
