More than 100 people were arrested on Monday night in Los Angeles, as "fringe groups" continued late-night protests, City of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass said.

The detention of the U.S. Army veteran and immigrant who obtained U.S. citizenship, punctuated a series of unusual events that have appealed to Trump supporters but outraged other Americans.

The LAPD and other agencies are aggressively clearing the streets of downtown LA, where protestors had pushed up against police lines.
