Lauren Tomasi, an American correspondent for CNN's Australian media house "Nine News", was reporting live from the protest in Los Angeles when the scream was heard. It turned out that she was hit by a rubber bullet fired by the police.

"The LAPD is approaching on horseback, firing rubber bullets at the protesters, chasing them through the heart of Los Angeles," Tomasi told the camera, pointing down the road.

The police called on the demonstrators to leave the city center.

The Los Angeles Police Department announced that the entire downtown area of ​​Los Angeles has been "declared an unlawful assembly area."

"You must leave the city center immediately," the police warned on the "X" network.

It also said that the "use of incendiary devices" by anti-government protesters would be met with "appropriate force".

Demonstrators also blocked the highway last night.

Shock grenades and tear gas were fired

After a wave of arrests on Friday, protesters clashed with federal forces, who fired tear gas, rubber bullets and stun grenades.

The violence quickly spread to Paramount. Protesters set a car on fire, smashed shop windows and blocked streets with supermarket trolleys. In total, about 400 people participated in the protests, according to the Los Angeles Sheriff's Office.

Trump sent the National Guard to Los Angeles

US President Donald Trump ordered the mobilization of 2,000 members of the National Guard who entered Los Angeles on Sunday.

He criticized California Governor Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass, calling them incapable of stopping the violence.

California Governor Gavin Newsom appealed to protesters not to clash with the police and the National Guard, stating: "Don't give Donald Trump what he wants!"

Newsom urged protesters on social media not to use violence and to respect police officers trying to keep the peace.

Newsom later confirmed that he had formally asked Trump to "rescind the illegal deployment of troops in Los Angeles County."
