0:00.0 | Good morning. It's Sunday, June the 8th. We begin this morning with breaking news. |
0:05.8 | Protests have erupted in Los Angeles that as Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents staged a sweep of migrant workers near a local Home Depot said to be part of a larger ice operation underway in Southern California. |
0:19.2 | Protesters clashed with law enforcement who were wearing riot gear. |
0:23.0 | They responded with tear gas, as some demonstrators set vehicles on fire at block major roadways. |
0:29.2 | According to the L.A. County Sheriff, one person has been arrested. Two deputies were injured, |
0:33.4 | even as crowds of protesters thinned out overnight. The Los Angeles Police Department says it detained multiple people near the city's downtown after failing to disperse. |
0:43.0 | The mayor of Paramount, a city in L.A. County that saw one of the ICE operations had this to say at a press conference yesterday. |
0:50.0 | I appreciate authorities doing their job, but I also appreciate the people who have, who are at this point, they're just frightened. |

1:55.2 | country, including to places like New York City. Despite the back and forth between local and |
1:59.7 | federal officials, L.A. Mayor Bass issued a |
