The confrontation arose when hundreds of people protested in front of the metropolitan detention center in the center of Los Angeles, where several troops of the newly organized national guard stood their shoulder for plastic riot panels.
The video depicted uniformed officers shooting from smoke -filled canisters when they got into the street, forcing protesters to retreat. It was not immediately clear what led to the use of chemical stimuli or which law enforcement agency dismissed them.
