For the second straight week demonstrators gathered in downtown Los Angeles police to protest the immigration policies recently instated by President Donald Trump. The Los Angeles Police Department said protesters had entered La Plaza en El Pueblo and urged other members of the public to use caution in the area as the "non-permitted" demonstration continued.

Draped in Mexican and Salvadoran flags, roughly 1,000 demonstrators gathered near City Hall shortly before noon, blocking traffic at Spring and Temple streets.

Demonstrators gathered outside Los Angeles City Hall Wednesday as protests against the Trump administration's crackdown on immigration continued in LA for a fourth day.

A demonstration at Los Angeles City Hall has shut down a portion of Spring Street in downtown on Saturday, police said. Protesters in opposition to the Trump administration’s deportations and stance on immigration have flocked to downtown LA for a second weekend in a row.

The Los Angeles Police Department said a teenage protester was stabbed and transported to a hospital in critical condition.

When marchers crossed overpasses of U.S. 101, prosecutors say Martin Richard Torres, 42, climbed onto a freeway sign, vandalized it and threw books at traffic below.

Immigration protests have now reached their second week in downtown Los Angeles as more demonstrators gathered on Sunday to denounce President Trump's immigration policies.
