Over the course of 8 days, LAPD made over 500 arrests during protests in Los Angeles.

The Los Angeles Police Department says more than 500 arrests have been made in connection with protest activity over the course of eight days. 

In a media release issued Sunday, LAPD confirmed that, since June 8, a total of 561 arrests were made related to protests across Los Angeles.

A dozen LAPD officers have been injured due to protest activity since June 8 as well, LAPD said, including three on Saturday. According to police, 38 arrests were made on Saturday night for various charges, including 35 for curfew violations, one for failure to disperse, one for resisting, obstructing or delaying a police officer and one for resisting arrest. 

“During the crowd control situation, numerous less-lethal munitions were used,” LAPD’s media release stated. The department was unable to comment on one man’s testicle being “shattered” after he was shot by a rubber bullet from close range.

Saturday’s protests were part of the “No Kings” movement that spurred demonstrations across Southern California and across America. They remained much more peaceful than the protests over federal immigration raids in the L.A. area over the past week that, at times, turned violent and destructive.

Los Angeles police released arrest numbers by day starting on June 7:

• June 7: 29 arrests for failure to disperse
• June 8: 21 arrests; charges range from attempted murder with a Molotov cocktail, assault with a deadly weapon on a police officer, looting and failure to disperse
• June 9: 96 arrests for failure to disperse, 14 arrests for looting, one each for assault with a deadly weapon, resisting arrest and vandalism
• June 10: 203 arrests for failure to disperse, three for firearms possession, one for assault with a deadly weapon on a peace officer and one for discharging a laser at an LAPD airship; there were also 17 arrests for curfew violations (the curfew instituted by L.A. Mayor Karen Bass went into effect at 8 p.m. that night)
• June 11: 71 arrests for failure to disperse, seven for curfew violations, two for assault with a deadly weapon on a police officer, one for resisting a police officer
• June 12: 33 arrests for failure to disperse, 13 for curfew violations, one for resisting a police officer and one for pointing a laser at an LAPD airship. One person who was detained for violating curfew was also arrested on a robbery warrant
• June 13: 18 arrests for curfew violation, one for assault with a deadly weapon
• June 14: 35 arrests for curfew violation, one each for failure to disperse, resisting, obstructing or delaying a police officer and resisting arrest

The next update on arrests connected to protest activity is expected Monday morning.

While LAPD stated a total of 561 arrests were made, the data provided by officials indicates that 574 arrests were made, which equates to roughly 70 to 71 arrests per day.

KTLA has reached out to the department for more information on the discrepancy.
