LOS ANGELES (AP) — After federal immigration authorities arrested more than 40 people Friday across Los Angeles, protesters gathered outside a federal detention center demanding their release before police in riot gear tossed tear gas canisters to disperse the crowd.

Federal agents took an unknown number of people — presumably suspected immigration law violators — into custody at multiple locations near downtown Los Angeles Friday, sparking impromptu gatherings of protesters who clashed with authorities at several scenes.
