Police arrested more than 20 people, mostly on curfew violations, on the first night of restrictions in downtown Los Angeles.

The downtown curfew encircles the downtown civic center, including City Hall, the main county criminal courthouse, LAPD headquarters and federal buildings.

Small business owners in downtown Los Angeles are left to deal with damages following several nights of violent protests.

The public fight between California Gov. Gavin Newsom and President Donald Trump keeps intensifying, with name calling, insults and accusations traded over television and social media networks.

Police in the city say they have made mass arrests, as a war of words between the president and California's governor ramps up.

President Donald Trump has deployed 4,000 National Guardsmen and 700 Marines to LA. But California Gov. Gavin Newsom and California Attorney General Rob Bonta are suing the Trump administration, saying they unlawfully "trampled over" California’s sovereignty when they federalized the California National Guard.

President Trump’s assertions that federal troops have saved the city from destruction did not appear to reflect reality.

The U.S. government has deployed National Guard and Marines in the city where police have used rubber bullets and tear gas — a repeat of June 2013 scenes that flared in Rio de Janeiro three years before the Brazilian city hosted the Olympics.
