Protesters clashed with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and FBI agents as multiple raids played out in Los Angeles on Friday, and local authorities appeared to side mainly with the illegal aliens.
The raids were undertaken in several locations — including two Home Depot stores and the headquarters of Ambient Apparel in the fashion district — ranging from downtown Los Angeles to Westlake, Cypress Park, and the area known as Skid Row.
As the raids began, Mayor Karen Bass (D-LA) spoke out, condemning the federal agents for enforcing federal immigration laws and issuing a statement via X: &#8220;This morning, we received reports of federal immigration enforcement actions in multiple locations in Los Angeles. As mayor of a proud city of immigrants, who contribute to our city in so many ways, I am deeply angered by what has taken place.&#8221;
&#8220;These tactics sow terror in our communities and disrupt basic principles of safety in our city,&#8221; she continued. &#8220;My office is in close coordination with immigrant rights community organizations. We will not stand for this.&#8221;

As the raids were carried out, however, protesters making good on Bass&#8217; words reportedly trapped ICE agents inside a local building and surrounded them. The FBI had to be called to resolve the situation.

The Left-Wing Mayor of LA says she is &#8220;deeply angered&#8221; and will &#8220;not stand for&#8221; ICE carrying out operations in her city.
ICE agents were trapped inside a building and faced serious threats from an angry far-left mob.

Protesters also surrounded federal agents and their vehicles as they attempted to leave the area, running in the street alongside and even in front of moving SUVs. The end result was as ugly as it was predictable, and at least one protester was caught on camera as he was struck by one of the vehicles.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
🚨WOW: Protestors gets more than he bargained for when trying to STOP an ICE vehicle from making its way.
You guessed it.
They got run over. <a href="https://t.co/K2Rcacwyp1">pic.twitter.com/K2Rcacwyp1</a>

Agents also reportedly employed smoke grenades and pepper spray as they attempted to clear the area and disperse the protests.
Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove (D-CA) also issued a statement similar to that made by Mayor Bass, saying, &#8220;I am closely monitoring the ICE raids that are currently happening across Los Angeles, including at a Korean American-owned store in my district. L.A. has long been a safe haven for immigrants. Trump claims he’s targeting criminals, but he’s really just tearing families apart and destabilizing entire communities.&#8221;

Kamlager-Dove also promised to assist those who were detained by providing resources and access to &#8220;government-approved attorneys&#8221; who could represent them.

&#8220;If you are a constituent of the 37th District and your family member has been detained, please reach out to my office and we can help locate your family member and provide you with a list of government-approved attorneys,&#8221; she said.
Rep. Jimmy Gomez (D-CA) also sided with the illegals, posting the following: &#8220;The ICE raids at stores and businesses across LA are pure intimidation by Trump and his cronies to scare and divide us. 🗣️ You have the right to remain silent; 📸 Film everything; 📝 Don’t sign anything without a lawyer; ❌ Don’t open the door w/o a signed warrant. Know your rights. Stay safe.&#8221;

Multiple reports have confirmed that a number of illegal aliens were taken into custody during the raids, but the exact number has not been revealed.
According to <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jun/06/los-angeles-ice-raids-immigration">one report</a> from The Guardian, Angelica Salas, executive director for the Coalition of Humane Immigrant Rights, claimed that at least 45 people had been taken into custody without warrants.
&#8220;Our community is under attack and is being terrorized. These are workers, these are fathers, these are mothers, and this has to stop. Immigration enforcement that is terrorizing our families throughout this country and picking up our people that we love must stop now,&#8221; she said.
