Protests regarding immigration policies are escalating across the United States, with Los Angeles seeing police-civilian clashes on the night of the 9th. Police ordered the clearing of the protest area, and those who resisted were arrested. A CNN reporter at the scene was also instructed to keep his hands behind his back and was escorted away from the controlled area.

The protests have spread to cities like New York, San Francisco, and Atlanta, resulting in multiple confrontations between police and civilians. In New York, protesters blocked some streets, and police made arrests in Manhattan. Meanwhile, supporters gathered in Dallas, Texas, to express solidarity with the Los Angeles protests.

Amid the turmoil, Waymo's self-driving taxis became primary targets. Protesters reportedly ordered rides via mobile phones and then vandalized the arriving vehicles, with at least five Waymo taxis burned, leading to significant losses. Waymo has since suspended its ride-hailing service in downtown Los Angeles.
