() Authorities in Los Angeles are announcing additional charges being filed in connection with immigration protests in the city.

Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman is holding a press conference to announce the charges, which follow a week of protests.

The protests were sparked by unannounced immigration enforcement raids in the city. The Los Angeles Police Department initially handled the protests, along with other authorities, but President Donald Trump intervened.

Trump federalized the state’s National Guard against the wishes of California Gov. Gavin Newsom and also deployed Marines to the city.

Los Angeles officials have maintained that the protests were peaceful until the White House intervened. A curfew was instituted for the downtown area after the LAPD declared an unlawful assembly on June 10 and protesters shut down part of the freeway.

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass recently reduced the curfew for downtown LA after tensions eased, with the new curfew running from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.

On Saturday, more than 30,000 people demonstrated in LA in peaceful protests that were part of a nationwide effort, with millions taking part in anti-Trump demonstrations across the globe.
