• Security forces fire tear gas, flash bangs and rubber bullets in downtown Los Angeles after United States President Donald Trump sent in National Guard troops to quell protests against immigration raids.
• The clashes near the Edward R Roybal Federal Building, the Metropolitan Detention Centre and the 101 Freeway come on the third day of Trump’s immigration crackdown, with dozens of people, including undocumented migrants, rounded up.
• Trump says his deployment of the National Guard is necessary, but his opponents, including California Governor Gavin Newson, say it’s an overreaction that will only escalate tensions.
• The governor says he will sue the Trump administration over the deployment of the National Guard after the White House rejected his appeal to rescind the order.
