The largely peaceful protests during the "No Kings Day" demonstration in downtown Los Angeles took an intense turn in the afternoon. Police ordered the crowd to disperse at about 4:15 p.m. PDT near Alameda Street and Temple Avenue, according to the Los Angeles Police Department's Central Division.

Another wave of protests is set to take place across Georgia this weekend as part of a national day of action against the Trump administration.

Protesters in Georgia are planning a day of defiance against Trump, with events in Atlanta and other cities nationwide.

Minutes after Atlanta’s “No Kings” protest began, organizers announced that the venue’s 5,000-person capacity had been reached.
