The protests escalated to violence, with demonstrators throwing objects at police and setting vehicles ablaze, prompting the Los Angeles Police Department to issue dispersal orders.<\/p>\n<p>Hochman emphasized that the majority of protesters are peaceful citizens demonstrating against recent ICE raids,during which about 45 individuals were detained. He acknowledged that only a small fraction of protesters engaged in violent actions, and expressed support for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/dem-house-committee-chairman-blasts-biden-for-dragging-feet-on-defense-budget\/\" title=\"Dem House Committee Chairman Blasts Biden For \u2018Dragging Feet\u2019 on Defense Budget\">law enforcement&#8217;<\/a>s accountability measures. <\/p>\n<p>To assist with the situation, President trump authorized the deployment of 4,000 national Guard soldiers to the area, countering claims from some Democrats that the protests were entirely peaceful. Reports from the LA County Sheriff indicated that protesters&#8217; behavior became increasingly aggressive towards police officers during the events.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">LA DA defends &lsquo;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/first-cheerleading-squad-in-nfl-replaced-by-men-women-dance-team\/\" title=\"First Cheerleading Squad In NFL Replaced By Men\/Women Dance Team\">incredible job<\/a>&rsquo; of law enforcement amid anti-ICE riots<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2143796\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/california\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">LA<\/a> District Attorney&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/crime\/3359115\/los-angeles-district-attorney-nathan-hochman-death-penalty\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Nathan&nbsp;Hochman<\/a>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >congratulated local law enforcement<\/a> for &ldquo;getting a little bit better each day&rdquo; at managing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/crime\/3434884\/ca-democrat-ice-agents-first-escalate-la-riots\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"the riots\">the riots<\/a> protesting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.<\/p>\n<p>The LA Police Department has issued dispersal orders across Los Angeles and Paramount as protesters have set fires to cars, including Waymo taxis, thrown frozen water bottles and cinderblocks at police cars, among other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/3436440\/suspect-threw-cinderblocks-ice-vehicles\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"acts of destruction\">acts of destruction<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/senate\/3436569\/fetterman-praise-gop-la-riots\/\">Fetterman gets praise from GOP over stance on LA riots: &lsquo;Anarchy&rsquo;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/crime\/3436488\/24-arrested-trump-tower-ice-protests-spread\/\">24 arrested at Trump Tower as ICE protests spread beyond LA<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/policy\/immigration\/3435561\/ice-arrests-los-angeles\/\">Here&#8217;s who ICE arrested before protests broke out in Los Angeles<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>&ldquo;The LAPD has over 8,000 officers; the sheriff has over 10,000 officers.
