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.

Protesters filled streets in hundreds of cities across the US to oppose President Donald Trump’s administration on Saturday, as he held a military parade in Washington.

Cities large and small across the U.S. saw crowds gather Saturday for planned "No Kings" protests against President Trump.

Thousands of people filled several city blocks in and around Daley Plaza in downtown Chicago--cheering, banging drums and waving upside-down American flags in the air to signal what they see as a country in distress.

Another protest against the Trump administration is being planned Saturday for Daley Plaza as part of a nationally coordinated series of demonstrations.
