Anti-Trump protesters take to L.A.’s streets for a fifth day
Thousands of marchers are expected to descend on MacArthur Park Saturday morning to protest the election of Donald Trump.
The group is expected to rally at the park -- which has been the site of numerous demonstrations over the years -- and then march on the streets.
Trump’s election has sparked day of protests in Los Angeles and other cities. Los Angeles police have arrested hundreds of people over the last few days, including Wednesday night when some demonstrators blocked lanes on the 101 Freeway.
About 150 anti-Trump protesters were arrested in downtown Los Angeles early Saturday morning after refusing the LAPD’s order to disperse.
